Pet care experience
Clean, Caring Pet Care
Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or welcoming them into mine, I keep things calm, clean, and personal. I only accept one boarding client at a time so your pet gets the special attention they deserve without the stress of a crowded facility. BOARDING IN MY HOME Your dog will stay in a cozy, pet friendly apartment with a private yard and direct access to a fully fenced dog park just steps outside my gate. Playtime, fetch, running, sniffing, and enrichment are built into the day. I follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and exercise routines exactly as provided. Structure keeps everyone comfortable. Because I share my home with my dog Cedar and my kitten Lemon, boarding dogs must have true 24/7 compatibility with: • Adult humans • Other dogs • Cats If your dog has ever shown aggression toward people or animals, or displayed aggressive resource guarding (toys, food, objects, family members), my home would not be the right fit. Safety and low stress for all animals is my top priority. DROP INS AND WALKS For clients who prefer care in their own home, I offer dependable drop ins and structured walks. You can expect: • Detailed updates • Clean food & water areas • Reinforcement of your routines • Calm, consistent handling I treat pets like my own but I respect that they’re yours and that means I stick to your rules!

Ratings and reviews
Amanda was amazing! My dog Apollo came back so happy and she kept my mind at ease throughout my trip by sending videos and updates every day. She was super accommodating to a last minute booking and was very thorough in getting to know my dogs needs. I would definitely book her again! :)
It was great, Amanda is a good sitter!
Amanda was great with Perdita! She made her feel right at home and kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and videos. Communication was easy, and I always felt informed about how Perdita was doing. I’d definitely book with Amanda again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Very communicative and took great care of my dude
Amanda was so great with our two little pups! One is very shy/nervous around new people, but Amanda was very patient and sweet to help her get more comfortable. Will definitely book her again for future services.
Amanda was great and communicated well. Would gladly book with her again.

Schedule
I currently work full time just around the corner from my home 8am - 5pm. I have an hour lunch and come home to care for my own pets and any other pets in my care every single work day. Meaning pets are home alone intermittently for about 4 hours.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and structure are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, pet friendly home with a private yard and direct access to a fenced dog park. I only accept one boarding client at a time to prevent overstimulation. All dogs must be fully compatible with adult humans, my dog Cedar, and my kitten Lemon. I follow feeding, medication, and routine instructions exactly as provided.
Pets
A typical day
I will follow your requirements and schedule as you describe it for your pet’s needs. Please do let me know if your dog has a history of anxiety, not eating when stressed, nipping, biting, escaping etc. none of these things are problems as long as I know about them in advance. It will help me adjust my behavior and handling of the dog.

- ***HELPFUL Q&A*** 1) What is the normal routine for your pet? (When does the dog normally go for a walk? When do you feed the pet [morning, evenings, free feed?] How do you put the pet to bed at night?) 2) What are the house rules for your pet? (Are they allowed on the couch or bed? What rooms can they go into?) 3) What kind of commands does your pet know? ( sit, stay, come, off, no) 4) What are some bad habits your pet has and what do you do to help fix it? 5) Is your pet allergic to any foods? 6) If you take the dog out for a walk, is there anything that the dog is afraid of or will set them off? 7) Does the dog do anything that only the owner would understand; scratch the arm, whimper, bark, etc?
