Welcome to the Family!

Pet care experience

I love animals of all types, who can resist those sweet little faces? Dogs, cats, horses, cows, bunnies, pigs...I clearly grew up on a farm but I think it that has a lot to do with why I love animals and why my background is so extensive when it comes to my care for them. I truly believe all animals are part of the family (I remember my cow being bottle fed in the kitchen when I was young) and I'm happy to extend that mindset to you and your fur-baby! I have more than 12 years of experience providing home-visits, pup sitting in my own home and drop-ins, dog walking, and just general pet care. I'm available to make drop in visits and do dog walking anytime throughout the week and weekend to be able to best care for your pets needs. I will usually have my children with me as I am a stay at home mom. My kiddos are pet friendly and super helpful when it comes to playing, exercising and even feeding pets. What to expect when I come to your home to care for your pet: I keep pets leashed before opening the door to go outside until we are back inside behind closed doors. While walking I stay aware of our surroundings, don't approach other neighborhood dogs, and make sure to watch your pet while there sniffing and exploring during the walk to reduce them eating something they shouldn't!

Amanda was fantastic! I am a traveling healthcare worker and needed someone to check on my girl during the day. Amanda was on time, reliable, honest, and I felt confident leaving my baby with her. She is kind person with a heart for animals. I would recommend her to anyone and I wish there was someone like her closer to my hometown!

As always Amanda is great! My dog Riggi acts himself around her and she knows how to manage his anxiety.

Once again I cannot say enough about Amanda! She is absolutely great. As an owner of a dog with leash reactivity I get nervous when a friend or someone wants to walk him but Amanda puts all my worries at ease when I’m out of town. So thankful Rover has sitters like her.
