Introduction: I am very efficient and tidy. I spend lots of time on cuddles and attention. Every visit I send pictures and texts, updates about each visit. I have been working as a pet sitter for about 13 years now and I love it! I am more than happy to look after any kind of animal from reptile to rodent to dog to cat to fish to bird. I have personal experience with dogs, cats, small mammals such as guinea pigs and hamsters, and some reptiles. I've done some veterinary school, internships, and classes such as pet first aid/CPR. Availability: Sunday-Saturday any time of day. I am comfortable giving medications such as pills and liquids and diabetes shots to dogs, cats, guinea pigs. (from prior personal and work experience).

Amanda is very good with our dog Beans. He is a very active lab mix and she keeps his well exercised and he loves her.

If we would have been able to give Amanda more stars we would have done so. We were absolutely pleased with Amanda services. She took great care of our 3 cats for two weeks. The house was impeccable, she took the time to swept the floors on the top of everything else. We got text messages at every visit she made. We couldn't have asked for more. We will gladly hire Amanda again!

I was very happy with Amanda taking care of our three cats. Two of them hid from her like the fraidy cats they are but the third one was out and Amanda sent me a picture of her every day that she was there. It was super sweet. She also went above and beyond by vacuuming the carpet by the litter boxes on the last day. WOW! I couldn't believe she did that. We will definitely ask Amanda to take care of our furbabies the next time we are out of town.

We were really happy with our experience with Amanda. She met with us beforehand to go over all the details and was in contact with us daily while we were gone. It was very reassuring to know our pets were cared for while we were gone. She left a detailed form for each visit with information about the Pat's and what she did. We will definitely call Amanda next time we need pet sitting!

So good! She sent pictures of my cat everyday, and texted updates of what she had done that day and what my cat had done. When I got back, she had a detailed form left of things like litter box uses, feeding and other behaviors. I was really worried about leaving my cat but she made it much easier :)

Details: Cat • 1 pet • Changing litter or bedding • Providing companionship • Giving food and water • Standard visit (60 minutes) • Once a day • The pet sitter travels to me
