Pet care experience
I'm good with animals, what can I say? It has always come naturally to me, and I've always loved being around them, in particular dogs. I've had dogs since I was a kid, and cared for friends' and neighbors' dogs for just as long. Puppies, elderly dogs needing more specialized care or oral meds. I'm very comfortable with any size dog (I'm particular to big dogs though :) I'm a decent dog trainer on a base level, non-professionally (based on my last dog, and what I learned at training classes), am comfortable being the one in charge, and have no trouble walking multiple big dogs at once, if needed. Ultimately I just LIKE being around them. Don't take it personally: I will definitely prefer your dog over you ;)
Reviews
Great with my dog!
Andrew was great with our pup. I would definitely recommend him and we will definitely use him again next time!
Excellent! Ukko was super happy with all of the activities and care offered and fulfilled by Andrew. 100% approved and recommended.
Andrew was perfect for Barbie’s stay. He is friendly, communicative and is confident about taking care of dogs. He took her on long walks on the WOD trail and sent pictures to me so that I was reassured she felt comfortable.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a condo. No fenced-in yard, although there's a courtyard where we can traipse about (on leash). For potty needs we'll go on walks. I own a cat, Kevin. He has been around and even lived with dogs. He's not a huge fan, but doesn't instigate and will probably hide for the most part, and can coexist with dogs without any real issues. If there are any concerns or they happen to clash, I can always quarantine him to my room during your dog's stay.

Availability
I currently work from home, so in general my schedule is fairly flexible. For the most part I can be present while doggo is here with me, and able to pop outside for walks or potty breaks as needed. I'll always make sure to understand your pet's specific needs, such as how long it can be left alone, if at all, so that I can plan my occasional in-person work or other needs around your pet's.
