I have been an animal lover since I was a kid and in the past 25 years I've owned dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, geckos and budgies. I am currently a proud "pawrent" of an 8 yr old Boston Terrier and two cute Guinea Pigs, so I'd say that I do have a lot of experience with many different pets.
I enjoy taking my dog Pixel out for long walks and going camping with him. I am a fun, loving and caring pet owner, so you can entrust me with your furbabies.
I have a lot of experience with dogs. I have experience with leashed walks, dog socializing and simple training techniques using treats. I am gentle and use positive reinforcements with all animals. I also have a lot of experience with cat sitting which includes feeding, playing and cleaning up their litter boxes. When I do house visits for pets I'm extra careful and make sure they don't run out the door and I always make sure the house is left the way it was found.
***I currently provide Daycare and Overnight Boarding for small, caged animals such as hamsters, guinea pigs, and reptiles but not for dogs or cats. I do however offer dog walking services and home visits for cat sitting or letting out dogs for a walk on weekdays and weekends at any time***
Amanda was fantastic with my menagerie. 4 cats, 2 guinea pigs and 2 crested geckos might seem a bit overwhelming but Amanda wasn't the slightest bit hesitant and she did a wonderful job! This was my first time leaving guinea pigs in the care of someone else and she wasn't even able to meet them before i left (they were not at my house at the time) but she set my mind at ease having her own pair. And the personal note she left at the end just really added to the great experience. I can't recommend her enough. My daughter loved the photos of her guinea pigs (they were rescues and are somewhat shy so they can be difficult to photograph). She kept coming back to my phone to see the photos again when she missed them. Thank you Amanda, you gave me peace of mind so i could enjoy my camping trip.
Amanda is great. Took good care of our 2 cats and sent photos every day which helped me because I end up missing them so much! She even left us a nice handwritten card on the last visit, and was very accommodating in dropping off the keys upon our return. 5 stars!
