Dog lover seeking dogs to spoil!

Pet care experience

I am the biggest animal lover I know and I am looking to take care of, play with, and spend time with dogs! My family has had two beloved dogs in my life, and I have always had a big role in taking care of them. Right now, we have a one-year-old yellow lab. She is high energy, but a lot of fun. I love to take her on runs and walks with me. I am going into my fourth year at the University of Virginia and working as a nanny this summer. I am mostly looking to dogsit this summer because I love being around dogs of all kinds! I have watched friends' and neighbors' dogs and cats on several occasions while they were out of town over the past few years.

Amanda is excellent with dogs and takes such good care of them. She has extensive experience taking care of large dogs and loves small dogs as well! She is extremely responsible and friendly, and is very dependable. I highly recommend Amanda, no matter what your dog's needs!

Information Amanda W. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the dog has any fears, as well as how the dog reacts to a new person. It would also be good to know how to calm the dog down if it happened to get scared for some reason (ex. my old dog was terrified of thunderstorms, so turning the radio on helped distract her).

A typical day

I think it is always fun to take dogs for walks around their neighborhood or perhaps to a local park. I love taking my lab on runs with me, so that could be a possibility with a more active dog. I love playing fetch with dogs, or kicking the soccer ball for them to chase after! Of course, I also adore just petting or snuggling with friendlier dogs after getting some energy out!
