Pet lover to watch your fur babies!

Pet care experience

I have had 4 dogs throughout my life- a wonderful golden retriever mix, two Shih Tzus, and a Chow Chow. They live with my parents now, and I would love to use my free time to care for your little ones! I have loved and cared for dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, so can deal with all kinds of ages- including administering any medications.

Amanda was great with our dogs, including our exuberant 18 mo old!

Amanda took excellent care of Hippo and our home during a 3-night sitting. Everything was so clean and organized when we returned home, and it was clear Hippo enjoyed her company. We recommend her services without hesitation and will be in touch for future bookings.

Amanda took great care of my pup! He’s a VERY high energy breed and has some trauma that makes him scared of some other dogs. Amanda seems to have a lot of experience with high need dogs and was very attentive to detail to learn how to best support my dog. So glad we found her!

Amanda is the best! We’ve used her multiple time for our dog who just LOVES her. Amanda is extremely responsible, responsive and caring. In addition to caring for our dog, she frequently will stay at our home, keeping and eye on our place and providing nighttime snuggles for Misha. We love Amanda and highly recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment

I will watch your dog in your home while you are away, ensuring their comfort and reducing their anxiety with your absence. I keep to the schedule you normally have with them.

Information Amanda V. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any special needs your dog has, as well as any unique quirks or fears they have. I especially want to know if they have any fear of thunderstorms, fireworks or the like so I can best care for them!

A typical day

I love to take dogs on long walks, play with them in their own play styles, and cuddle up with them on the couch. I also love to help reinforce any training you do to keep them stimulated!
