Pet Loving Fur/Non Fur Mom!

Pet care experience

** UPDATE: I have prided myself on being both affordable and a safe space for your baby, with the raising price of everything especially gas, I have adjusted my rates some to cover costs.** Hi! My name is Amanda V., I am a fulltime fur and non fur Mom, as I have made the jump to make this a full time job! I have two non-fur children ages 10 and 13 , my fur children consist of three kitties babies ages 17-15- 10 and two fluffy doggos ages 5 & 3, and an amazing husband who shares my love of animals. I grew up surrounded by various animals both indoors and outdoors animals. My grandparents owned a farm so I have experience with many farm animals, and growing up we had two dogs, multiple cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I have helped care for and watch others fur/feathered/scaley babies since as long as I can remember. I am not medically certified in anyway, but have extensive knowledge of medicines, administering medicines, CPR, and First AID. I am constantly researching behavior/training methods, daily food/treat quality, and grooming techniques. My dream has always been to work in the animal care field, especially grooming. I currently own my own pet dryer along with various grooming tools, and if wanted I can obtain the knowledge for grooming your fur baby. As for now we live in town, in a quiet neighborhood, with ample room for your fur baby to join our family if you choose to have me care for them in home. I hope to hear from you soon and meet your fur babies!!! If you have any additional questions please contact me.

Great job with the dog. Didn’t anticipate the cat eating all the food I left out and she fed him anyways when he did without me asking. Showed up and spent time with my dog twice and day and communicated very well. Will definitely choose Amanda in the future if available.

Amanda did an incredible job with my Daisy! Being an overprotective and anxious dog mom, I wasn’t worried about her for a second while she was with Amanda. She sent me so many pictures of my little girl and made me comfortable leaving her for a few days!

Information Amanda V. would like to know about your pet

As far as breed preferences; there is no breed too big or small, furry or non furry, calm or active I won't work with. Spayed/Neutered is always important if I were to take them anywhere besides my own home. Medical conditions or daily medicines. Any special restrictions of any kind, or dislikes.

A typical day

Walking will be mainly done in my quiet neighborhood, but we love to also go to the Rails to Trails for walks. If your fur baby does well with other dogs/dog parks, and is neutered/spayed, we will take trips to the dog park. Low intensity hiking is also something we enjoy. Fetch and easy agility is a favorite activity of our too.

As of now I am available almost any day at any time. I will be going back to substituting in the afternoons starting in the fall, as the need for long term care is lower once school starts.
