About: I dearly love Great Pyrenees. I was owned by one. I understand the breed and the responsibilities there of. The gentle giants of the large breeds. Most intelligent of the dog world. I am retired and home all day. My life would center around your pup. As a widow in a condo I can give your pup all the attention, fresh air, and love it so deserves. Your pup would be the center of my attention. I cannot take on the responsibility of being a full time parent, but I would dearly love to love on your pup, almost like a g-parent.
“My experience with Amanda was outstanding! I was nervous about leaving my small older dog with someone new but the entire experience went very well. Amanda asked a lot of questions about him beforehand and kept in touch with pictures or information about how he was each day. I will definitely feel comfortable using Amanda each time we go away and hope she will be available.”
About: I have been a pet lover my entire life. I was raised in a home where we had Ferrets, Hamsters, a Pet Skunk, a Squirrel named Boomer, as well as Dogs and Cats ... I am very loving and warm to animals and think that animals are more than pets ..they are family members. I have always been a fur mom and would be honored to help you provide the care you would want for your fur baby. Your fur baby will be cuddled, scratched, played with, and loved as if they were my own in your absence. I service Transylvania County, Jackson County and Macon County including Lake Toxaway as well as the Highlands-Cashiers area. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I am prompt and dependable and will not disappoint you or your pet. Your pets health and well being is of upmost importance to me and I will care for them as if they were my own. I am available to house sit in your home while you are away so they may stay on their normal routine. I have outstanding reviews and can provide additional references as well if needed. I water plants, can care for “off season” homes and ensure your home is safe and secure while you are away.
