Veteran who loves walking dogs!

Pet care experience

I have worked at an animal hospital, SPCA, and retail-chain boarding facility, so being a dog walker and dog sitter is nothing new to me. I have been trained in proper handling techniques, dog stress indicators, and dog fight de-escalation. I am also prior-military, so I am able to maintain the high energy and strength that your dog might need during a walk, if he/she loves to pull! I have walked Great Danes and mastiffs (who were obsessed with cars), as well as two pound chihuahuas in a professional setting. One of my dogs loves people but hates other dogs, and my other dog is terrified of people but will stop at nothing to play with other dogs, so I am really good at finding an escape route to avoid crazy situations on walks! I am home most of the week because I am a full time student with mostly online classes, so please dont hesistate to book me!

Amanda is a very loving and caring person toward dogs. I have seen her at work when she worked at two different dog care facilities and she always had the dogs' comfort as the top priority. She has also bathed my dogs and was able to teach my very crazy puppy how to "Sit."
