Pet care experience
May 2023 update: YAY! We are accepting new dog guests again! Please read my entire profile before booking! I am not just a "hobby" sitter, I run a legitimate business from home. I am licensed with the State of Indiana as an LLC. I am also insured and a member of various pet sitting organizations. I have had the pleasure of watching over 200 dogs since August 2016! I have three dogs of my own. They are very friendly and welcoming to their dog guests and enjoy making new friends. I offer a meet and greet for first time dog guests. This allows your dog to meet me and my lovable fur-babies, as well as put your mind at ease knowing that your dog will be in great hands while you are away! For boarding and daycare services, the meet and greet will take place at my home, restricted to the outside only (weather permitting). Any signs of aggression will result in immediate denial of the service request.
Reviews
Thanks!
Thank you for everything!
Amazing !! Really worked with our schedule. Thank you .
I feel terrible, I thought my husband did a review and he thought I did! Amanda was fabulous with our 100lb labra-baby. He's quirky and she handled all of his needs without fail. Thank you so much! And sorry about the late review.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced backyard (6 ft wood privacy) and will always supervise while dogs are outside. When outside of the home, I do use crates to keep dogs safe. They do best in their own, but I do have extras available to use (limited).

Information Amanda R. would like to know about your pet
I don't have any breed or size restrictions. I do require that the dog be vaccinated (proof required), fixed, and kid and dog friendly. In addition, I ask that the dog be on flea medication and not currently have any fleas or ticks. My dogs are treated with Sentinel and my yard is sprayed regularly.
A typical day
I have a fully fenced backyard with a 6 foot wood privacy fence. They would never be left unsupervised while outside, but they can enjoy being leash free and able to run and play with my girls. I also enjoy walking dogs around my neighborhood. I can provide plenty of toys to play with inside my home. I try to keep guest dogs used to their own routine. This includes feeding and potty times, as well as exercise schedule (if they have one). If a dog is used to being crated, I do have extra crates to use, but they usually do best in their own. When left alone, dogs will be kept separated from each other. Please note: Dogs that are not used to being crated at their own home may still be crated if they have any marking or destructive tendencies while in our care. While it is usually better to include your own treats when your dog comes to visit, we do have plenty of treats to share. I only provide high quality, made in USA treats in my home.

Availability
From April to December, I only work outside of the home one day a week so I have plenty of free time to spend with your pup.
