I work full-time from home, so your dog receives consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. Each day follows a structured routine that includes supervised outdoor time, balanced social interaction (when appropriate), and scheduled rest periods. Dogs are carefully introduced and monitored to ensure comfort and compatibility. My home environment is clean, organized, and designed to reduce stress. Bedding is refreshed between stays, water is always accessible, and I monitor closely for changes in behavior, appetite, or energy. Some dogs enjoy social play, while others prefer a quieter routine — I tailor each stay to match your dog’s personality and needs. You can expect daily updates and clear communication so you always know how your dog is doing while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a structured, supervised home environment tailored to each dog’s needs. Dogs are carefully introduced and matched by temperament to ensure compatibility. I closely monitor group dynamics and adjust as needed to maintain a calm, balanced setting. My home is cleaned daily, and bedding and shared spaces are refreshed between stays. Water is always available, outdoor time is supervised, and rest periods are built into the day to prevent overstimulation. For dogs who prefer crate routines, I’m happy to follow their established schedule to help them feel secure and comfortable. Safety, communication, and consistency are my top priorities so your dog can feel at home while you’re away.

Information Amanda R. would like to know about your pet

What’s Important to Know About Your Dog? To maintain a safe and balanced environment for all dogs in my care, I ask that you share as much detail as possible about your dog’s routine, temperament, and history. Please include the following in your booking request: Socialization: How does your dog interact with other dogs? Have they shown any signs of resource guarding, reactivity, or anxiety in group settings? Routine & Behavior: What is their typical daily schedule? Feeding times? Potty routine? Any habits or quirks I should know about? Health & Medical: Are they fully vaccinated and on flea/tick prevention? Do they have any current or past medical concerns? If medication is required, please provide clear written instructions. Training & Sensitivities: Are there known triggers (noise, food, toys, strangers, other dogs)? Any history of aggression or stress behaviors? Comfort Preferences: Do they prefer crate time, open sleeping, or a quiet space? Are they allowed on furniture at home? Boarding History: Have they stayed with multiple dogs before? Were there any past issues I should be aware of? Safety Note: For the safety of all dogs, full transparency is required regarding behavior, medical history, and temperament. Dogs showing undisclosed aggressive behavior may require early pick-up. The more information you provide, the better I can ensure a safe, comfortable, and well-managed stay for your dog.

A typical day

Each day follows a structured routine designed to balance activity and rest. Morning begins with supervised outdoor time in the fenced yard, followed by breakfast (if scheduled) and a calm indoor settling period. Dogs are introduced gradually and monitored to ensure comfort and compatibility. Throughout the day, dogs rotate between supervised play sessions and scheduled rest periods to prevent overstimulation. Some pups enjoy social interaction, while others prefer quieter time — I tailor the environment to match each dog’s energy level and personality. Walks are provided as needed to maintain routine and enrichment. Sleeping Arrangements: Dogs sleep wherever they are most comfortable — whether that’s a cozy dog bed, a familiar blanket, or their crate if they prefer a crate routine. Time Spent Together: Because I work from home full-time, your dog receives consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day. I closely observe behavior, appetite, and energy levels to ensure they are comfortable and well cared for. Daily photo updates are provided so you always know how your dog is doing.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Amanda. I’ve been caring for dogs full-time from my home in Highland Park for over five years and have 300+ five-star reviews from Dallas pet parents. It’s just me here, so your dog gets the same person every day, a steady routine, and a calm place to settle in. Most days are a mix of supervised outdoor time in my fenced yard, rest, and play when it’s a good fit. Some dogs settle in right away and some need a quieter start, so I try to keep things low-stress and not force anything. I’m home throughout the day, keep things clean and comfortable, refresh bedding between stays, and send regular updates so you can see how your dog is doing. I offer boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-ins. If your dog does best with a calm home and a steady routine, feel free to reach out and see if it would be a good fit. For holiday stays with multiple dogs, Rover applies the holiday rate to the first dog automatically, and I may adjust the total slightly depending on dates and care needs. New to Rover? Use promo code MANDER78403 for $20 off your first booking.
