About: What sets me apart is my genuine passion for animals and my patient, attentive care style. I’ve had and babysat several dogs over the years, so I understand the unique personalities and needs each pup can have. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior pups who need a little extra love and gentle handling. I treat every dog like family—whether we’re going on a walk, having playtime, or just relaxing together. You can count on me for dependable, loving care and consistent communication while you're away. As a private contractor, I have the flexibility to choose my own hours, which makes pet care a natural and rewarding part of my daily routine. I’m able to dedicate focused time throughout the day for walks, visits, and quality one-on-one attention. Whether it's a morning check-in, mid-day play session, or evening cuddle time, I can easily work around each pet’s needs and schedule. This flexibility allows me to provide dependable, personalized care without ever feeling rushed. In my client’s home, I focus on keeping your pet comfortable by maintaining their usual routine. I follow all care instructions closely—from feeding and walks to playtime and medications—and always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and relaxed in their familiar environment. I respect your space, keep things tidy, and send regular updates so you feel confident while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick visit or overnight stay, I’m all about creating a calm, caring experience for your pet.

Was my first time hiring someone to come into my home and take care of Buffy and Amanda eased all my worries with how amazing she was! Thank you Amanda!!”
About: I worked as a kennel technician at Town and Country Animal Hospital and have a year experience doing this professionally. I have taken care of my families animals. I have 4 pets of my own so I understand their needs. My schedule is very flexible and open. I would be able to visit your animal as many times as you request per day or what you believe is right! I will safely watch over your pets while they are in my care, even if they are comfortable and fully understand their surroundings. If anything happens, I do have veterinary experience.

About: Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their pets. I've also had pets growing up so I know the time and dedication it takes to take care of a furry best friend. Additionally, I have a bit of experience in providing senior care. I am not advanced but I understand the importance of providing timely and well-administered medicine to pets. I am also skilled in providing senior pets with the extra care they need to relieve any emotional distress. I am currently in Miami with open availabilities everyday. However, I am not available on Sundays from 1pm-3pm and Thursdays from 7:30pm-9:00pm. I would prefer not to work past 8:30pm but if you are in critical need of a sitter, I am willing to accommodate for anytime before 10:40pm. When I take care of pets at their home, I always start by meeting the pet and their owner to understand their personality, habits, and any special requirements. I stick to the pet’s feeding schedule, making sure they have fresh food and water at all times. I take dogs for walks, play with them, and provide mental stimulation based on their energy level and breed. For cats and other pets, I engage them in appropriate activities. If needed, I brush, bathe, or clean up after the pet to ensure they stay clean and comfortable. If the pet has any medical needs, I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for administering medication and keep an eye out for any signs of illness. I always make sure doors, gates, and enclosures are secure so the pet stays safe. I clean up after the pet, whether it’s handling litter boxes, picking up waste, or wiping down surfaces. I like to keep owners updated with messages or photos, so they feel reassured that their pet is well cared for.
