Highlights
Pet care experience
Dedicated and doting dog mom
When I was 8, my dad brought home a beagle puppy named Annie. I decided she was mine and took my ownership duties VERY seriously: walking her, (attempting) training, and loving her each day of her life until she passed away at age 14. She taught me most of what I know about dogs. I had the pleasure of sharing my life with JJ, a rescued Pomeranian, for six wonderful years, until he passed in 2020. And in 2021, my current boy, Falkor, came into my life. He's a sweet soul who makes every day better. My pets are definitely my babies, and I will treat yours with the same love and care.

Ratings and reviews
I feel totally comfortable leaving Beverly with Amanda! Amanda clearly loves animals, has a dog of her own, and is a horse expert! She was communicative, sending both pictures and updates. Beverly was well cared for and happy. Thank you!!!
Our pets are so relaxed with Amanda. She is attentive, responsive and sends us pictures every day. She's reliable and I can trust her because she does what she says she will. You will be happy with her services and can relax during time away knowing your fur babies are in good hands! Debra
Amanda did a great job with our dog and cat. Despite a meet and greet, since this was her first visit without us present, Buddy barked for a while after Amanda's arrival. She sat at his level in the floor while reassuring him and he calmed down. She instinctively knew she needed to gain his trust. Buddy was walked daily. He and Jakey got their treats as requested. Amanda kept us informed and reassured that all was well with our fur babies while we were away. We will book her services at every opportunity in the future and recommend her highly. Thank you Amanda! Debra and Andy
Amanda dropped in to play and feed Oliver lunch the other day when I went mountain biking, and everything was fantastic! Arranging the visit was a piece of cake because Amanda replied promptly and comprehensively. The visit went great and Amanda even sent pictures of Oliver in the backyard playing fetch and cooling off in the kiddie pool! When I got home I found a nice little note summing up the visit--it was a most appreciated touch. I definitely recommend Amanda and will certainly contact her again to see if she'd be able to visit with Oliver next time I'm out and about and can't get back to my pup.
Amanda is a gentle soul with a calming presence and a very low threshold for nonsense--basically the Dog Walker Trifecta of Awesomeness. She is punctual, respectful, ethical, and responsible. I could go on and on, but I think what sets Amanda apart is that she really, truly cares. It's hard to explain, but your dog won't just have a competent dog walker; he or she will have a fierce advocate. I can't recommend her enough.
