About Amanda

I'm friendly, reliable and detail oriented when it comes to pet care. I love working with animals because they bring us so much joy! They can be sweet, funny, and sometimes challenging - but learning to meet their needs through kindness and respect is so rewarding. I'm looking to help families who want peace of mind that their pet is getting the best possible care when they are away. I've had pets of all types since childhood, but my experience also includes caring for horses at a rescue farm, fostering cats and ferrets, and caring for penguins at the New England Aquarium! In my spare time, I like to cook, read, knit. I'm consistent, dependable and will follow whatever directions a pet parent gives - you know your pets' needs best. Some of my most important skills are that I understand how to earn a pet's trust, I can tidy up after any pet, and I can get a cat to swallow a pill!
