We had Amanda take care of my two corgis for a weekend while we were away. She has great experience working with animals through being a dog trainer, to having some pets of her own, which made us feel confident we made the right choice. She house-sat with them so they would feel comfortable in an environment they know. She kept us updated on how they were doing throughout the weekend with the most adorable photos and text updates. They are very high-energy dogs as they are still young and naturally herding dogs. They were kept entertained with playtime, enrichment with their Kong toys, and she took them on long walks. She was extremely sweet and caring toward them, and we couldn't have been happier that they felt safe and happy. We will absolutely use her again if we need a pet sitter, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for one too.

Amanda is the absolute best and she trained and watched our dog Summer from 12 weeks until 3 years. She was so helpful with training, advice, health concerns and her overall knowledge of dogs. Amanda was not only professional, reliable and communicative with her dog walking days but our dog simply loved her and looked forward to seeing her. Amanda watched our dog when we went away and I always felt at ease and comfortable knowing our dog was in great hands. You would be lucky to have Amanda care for your fur baby!
