Safety, trust & environment
I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big decision. I strive to provide dependable, attentive care while respecting your home, routines, and instructions. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, personality, feeding schedule, medications, and any special care requirements so they can stay comfortable and stress-free in their familiar environment. During visits or overnight stays, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, a clean living space, exercise and playtime as needed, and plenty of affection. I am happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is for you to return home to a happy pet and a home that is just as you left it.
Information Amanda T. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for your pet, I’d like to know about their daily routine, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, and any special needs or behavioral quirks. It’s also helpful to know how they interact with new people, other animals, and unfamiliar situations. For cats, I appreciate knowing their favorite hiding spots, whether they are likely to try to slip outside, and how social they prefer to be. For dogs, I’d like to know about leash manners, exercise needs, triggers, and any training cues you use regularly. The more I know about your pet’s personality and routine, the better I can provide care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away.
A typical day
Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to maintain the schedule they are already comfortable with. A typical day includes feeding, fresh water, playtime, exercise as needed, litter box or potty breaks, and plenty of attention and companionship. For overnight stays, I spend quality time with your pet throughout the day and evening so they can maintain a sense of normalcy while you’re away. I am happy to follow specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, walks, enrichment activities, and bedtime routines. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, happy, and stress-free in their familiar environment.

Pet care experience
Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter and lifelong cat lover who has owned, fostered, and cared for cats for most of my life. I also have experience with small to medium sized dog breeds and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I offer drop-in visits, pet sitting, and dog walking services in the local area. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, medication reminders, or just a reliable person to check in while you’re away, I’m committed to providing attentive and compassionate care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re gone. I’m happy to discuss care plans for households with multiple pets! Every home and pet combination is different, so I can adjust pricing based on the number of pets, their routines, and the level of care they need.

Reviews
Amanda did a wonderful job! She stayed in our home, following all instructions and leaving our house clean and tidy. Most importantly, she took great care of Winnie! We received super photos, so we knew they were playing and hanging out together. It was clear that Winnie was in good hands, whch allowed to have us a stress-free time away. Thank you!
Amanda always does a great job watching our two cats when we need a sitter! One of the cats needs to be given a pill every day, and she always does it no problem. She makes sure to give both cats love and attention. She always makes sure to keep their water clean and full and feeds on time. The peace of mind knowing she is there all the time is great! I would highly recommend!
Amanda has been taking care of my pets for several years, and I honestly cannot recommend her enough. She goes above and beyond, having taken the time to learn the specific needs of not only my cats but also my entire reptile collection! She is incredibly reliable with overnight stays, and my cats love her. Amanda is fantastic about sticking to strict routines, ensuring everyone receives their specific diets and medications right on schedule. She can even successfully pill my cats when they are being sassy! I trust her completely with both my home and my animals. If you want peace of mind while you're away, Amanda is the best choice!
