About: Hello my name is Amanda :) I am from Harlingen and currently attending UTRGV to major in Marine Biology. Me and my family have a three year old chihuahua named Soda who is super loved!! I decided to get Rover because I would like to earn some money to help with my school expenses & other things. I am currently 23 yrs old. I am a friendly and an easy going person. I would love and enjoy the opportunity to take care of your little fur friends and will do my absolute best of taking care of them. I love dogs and look forward to having fun with them! For dog walking & dog visit services, I am available early mornings to mid afternoons for both weekdays and weekends. I am excited to care of your pups! My dog Soda is an indoor dog but he really loves playing outside. When he wants to go outside, I walk him on his leash and playfully throw his ball for him to run, and take him to do his doggy business.

“Sanchita was great. She followed all the instructions for all 3 of our dogs. She made sure she communicated to us and was on time for all of her drop in visits. The one thing I noticed was when she met our dogs, she didn’t react to them jumping and being excited, which made them relax faster than normally. Will definitely book her again.”

She even helped out by bringing packages in our house when UPS delivered. We are so happy that we found Alexis and will definitely ask her to help us in the future.”


About: I love dogs, because they are really man’s friend. They feel when you are sad, when are happy, and they share your laughter. I remember when Oreo travelled with me on the airport, and sat very quietly, because I told him to do so. Or when he does something bad, and like a baby, tries to avoid eye contact, does anything to distract you from what he horribly done. Or when he just got s bath of a shower and runs around the house like z crazy nut to dry himself. I can go on and on and on. They are very pure inside, innocent, and always give you unconditional love.... I love their cute face all kinds. I love dogs, because they are really man’s friend.
