Meet the Team

We’re lucky to work with a talented group of independent pet care professionals who help make Wandering Wags what it is. Each of them brings their own experience, dedication, and love for animals to the work they do—whether it's dog walking, drop-in visits, or just spending time with pets who need some extra attention.

We partner with these professionals to ensure your pets receive the same thoughtful, high-quality care you’d expect from Wandering Wags. They're trusted members of our extended crew, and we're proud to connect our clients with such passionate and reliable caregivers.

Animals are a wonderful blessing to me! Of all the pets I’ve enjoyed through the years my favorite has been dogs. I’ve provided over a dozen years of care and have experience with feeding & watering, administering medication, walking, cleaning up after, playing, cuddling, and overnight care.

I’m passionate about giving dogs much needed
exercise and freedom to experience all the sights,
sounds and smells of nature. During our walks I
love to see the spring in their step and the wag of
their tail!

My heart's desire is to enhance your precious pet’s
health and happiness!

Dog Walker & Pet Sitter

Amanda Allport

Hi! My name is Amanda. I have a decade of animal care under my belt, so I would say animals are definitely my passion. Ever since I was little I knew I would be helping animals one way or another. From being a kennel technician all the way to being a dog trainer, I have experience handling all sorts of animals furry, feathery and scaly. My goal is to maintain a safe, fun and loving environment for every animal I meet!
