Southern Hospitality and Cuddles

Pet care experience

I’m new to San Diego by way of Nashville, TN. I grew up on a farm near Louisville, KY with Labradors, rescues, cats, birds and horses. When I was 18, I moved to NYC to pursue music and a career in Réal Estate. 11 years in, I became a mom to a furry golden terrier, Laela. She is the best thing that’s ever happened to me! I remember using Rover when I needed someone to watch her while on business and—- wow—- it was such a life saver! My life has settled down a bit and Id like to help out others with my flexible schedule the same way I was helped during my NYC days. I live in an apartment in Ocean Beach 2 blocks from Sunset Cliffs and love walking dogs in this area!

Ande did an excellent job in caring for our cat while we were out of town! She went above and beyond to ensure our little guy was happy and comfortable. The updates for every visit were thorough and left us knowing that he was in good hands! Would definitely recommend Ande to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

Ande is wonderful. I had a very important conference call to conduct from home and needed someone to walk my dog Abby during it (she barks at everything!) So, I downloaded Rover to my phone and thats how I found Ande! I requested a walk for that day and messaged Ande my situation. Within three minutes, we were confirmed and she was en route to my house. Score! Ande got there stat allowing me to be able to prep a little. Furthermore, she came prepared with her own leash and poop bags. Abby Barked at her (in her normal fashion) but immediately warmed up to her which I really appreciated! She then leashed her up and off they went! Crisis adverted and thanks to Ande, I was able to conduct my conference call and maintain peace of mind while getting updates throughout the walk directly to my phone :-). I’ll definitely be calling her again for my last minute pup walking needs!!

Ande is wonderful and now my go to sitter! She was so caring and sweet with my one shy dog and one special needs (blind) dog. She sent lots of texts and videos which brings me peace of mind. She took thoughtful consideration to their schedule and needs, even doing some research for my littlest guys anxiety issues. I highly recommend Ande !

I can’t say enough great things about Ande! She is a woman of integrity, effective communicator and very passionate about animals. Last year, Ande agreed to watch my two rescues for 10 days while I was out of town. Everyday she sent me photos and/or videos along with a detailed update on the days activities. At one point Coco threw up after eating his meal (which he does this from time to time when he eats too fast..). Anywho — Ande told me what happened right away and asked if I would like her to feed him another serving or wait until the next meal. Talk about integrity! I mean, it would have been super easy to have just said “Yep the dogs are great! Ate all there food and now we’re playing outside!” But she was honest and took the time to let me know what was up and asked for my thoughts on what to do versus just doing what she would do if it were her dog (she has a dog.) Adding to the above, when I returned home, not only were my pups happy and healthy, my apartment was squeaky clean——in fact, it was in better condition after my trip then it was when I left! If you’re looking for a dog sitter, walker, someone to check in on your pet or a place to board your pup —- look no further. Ande is the best!! NTM she’s really funny too :) (I just wish she was in Nashville still so I could use her again!!! )
