I'm a Sucker for a Pupper

Pet care experience

I don't currently have any dogs of my own, but I am a dog girl at heart. I grew up with German Shorthairs, I had a Pug for her lifetime, and my ex-husband and I rescued an old Beagle with a heart murmur. From puppies to old dogs with special needs, I love them all. I am, literally, the person who would rather talk to a dog at a party than to people. I'll provide you with updates (and pictures!) as frequently as you like. I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is being well taken care of while you're away. I am a whole-hearted dog caretaker, and I'll make sure your dog is loved as completely as I would want my own pet cared for in my absence. Dogs are family, after all.

Amanda and her family took excellent care of Finn. Highly recommend her dog sitting services!

Amanda was an amazing sitter. Our dog Finn is 13 and we’ve never left him with anyone but family before, but Amanda treated Finn just like her own! She had experience with senior dogs which made me feel comfortable. She and her family took wonderful care of him and I know he had a lot of fun adventures. She was very communicative and sent lots of updates and pictures so I knew he was in good hands and having a good time. We came home to one happy, worn out pup! Highly recommend Amanda for any dog sitting needs.

Amanda went above and beyond what I would expect of a dog sitter and I would definitely recommend her services. She took care of our pup for the weekend, made sure he was comfortable in her home, took him for walks and to the dog park, was in regular contact with photos and messages about how great of a time they’re having, and even spent the night on the couch with him to get him settled so he’d sleep (sorry about that, Amanda!). We picked up a happy pup, and we’re so glad Amanda was available to take such great care of him!

Amanda cared for our 2 German Shepherds over the Thanksgiving holiday. We are so thankful to have found her. She gave us regular updates and we came home to 2 happy dogs. If you need a pet sitter Amanda is fantastic!

While we don't have a fully fenced yard, we live by a school with a large open yard, and nearby to a dog park, if that's your thing. I'm also a big fan of laying around on the couch - dogs allowed!
