Life-long dog lover

Pet care experience

As someone who has had dogs her entire life, you can trust me to take care of your pet! I began helping my parents with training our dogs by age 7, and so it wasn't a surprise that my own dog's rescue organization told me I was the most prepared applicant they've ever seen! I am happy to give your pet all the love and care they deserve, and make them happy and content while you are away. My dog Bailey and I love going on walks around the neighborhood and to the dog park, and we would be happy to take yours with us! My roommate Dana works from home daily, and I go into the office for just two days a week, so you can be assured that your pup will bever be lonely! Once the day is over, Dana and I head out on a walk with both our dogs, and we would be happy to take your pup out with us! Bailey, Dana, Monty, and I live in an apartment. We spend a lot of time walking around the neighborhood or on trips to the dog park. Bailey is the friendliest dog in the world, and would LOVE to keep your fur baby company. If your dog needs the comfort of a crate, I have one available for your pup to use. Your pet will be given plenty of love and attention here!

Our pup has been to Amanda’s several times now. Amanda provides such a warm and friendly environment and our pup is always happy to see her!

Amanda is great! Very kind and professional. My dog was well taken care of while I was away. I received plenty of text updates. My dog came home much happier than when I use a traditional dog daycare where they board the dogs in crates. My husband and I treat our dog like our baby and felt nervous trying out Rover but we had a great experience with Amanda! I would definitely recommend Amanda and use her services again.

I left my dogter in Amanda's care last weekend while I was away on a girl's trip. She welcomed us in during our meet and greet and she was the absolute sweetest (as well as her sweet pup Bailey ?). Amanda was so kind, warm, and sent the most adorable pictures of my dog while I was away (who was clearly having a great time). I highly recommend Amanda for your boarding needs and we look forward to seeing her again!

Information Amanda R. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know how to interact with your dog-- are they shy? Are they scared of anything? Do they have any triggers or allergies I should be aware of? Do they have any nervous behaviors when away from home? I want to know all about your dog, so I'd love to set up a meet and greet to get to know them!

A typical day

If the weather permits, Bailey, Monty and I take a walk in the morning while Dana takes them out around lunch. We all go out for an evening walk after work and love letting the dogs off leash at a dog park our in the green space outside of our building. Our favorite dog parks are Shirlington, Bundy Park, and on a special weekend we'll head over to BarkHaus! Sometimes we'll take a walk through the arboretum or Roosevelt island, and would love your pup to join us!
