About Amanda

I started working with animals when I was very young. My family started fostering dogs when I was in 4th grade- I was the main caretaker for the foster since I wanted to do it. I was paid to dog sit for the first time when I was 19, and have done it on and off since then but worked at a rescue for 10 months when I was 25-26. I have a background in wildlife biology and was an animal caretaker for a total of 3 years with a variety of wildlife. In my spare time, I like to listen to music, go to concerts, sew and do DIY/up-cycling projects, thrift, hike, and explore nature! One thing you should know about me is I love dogs of all breeds and sizes. I will show them so much love but will give space if they prefer that and aren't a huge fan of physical affection. I'm a huge "bully breed" advocate and my "soul dog" was a special needs pit mix who I had the joy of having for 6 months before she passed.
