Experienced with shelter pups
Pet care experience
My name is Draiy and working with animals is my passion! I have had dogs since I was a small child and cared for my dogs through their entire lives and into hospice as they aged. I have been a volunteer dog walker consistently for the last 4 years. I have loads of experience with rescue pups and feel very comfortable working with special ones that need a bit more patience and a dog savvy sitter. I have experience with dog reactive dogs, people reactive dogs, flight risks, seniors with medication needs, and much more. I have had very "particular" dogs myself and totally understand that some need more time and care than others when it comes to things like coxing them to eat, administering meds, or even just getting to know a new person. I am totally comfortable and familiar with walking dogs that need to be kept a safe distance from people and other dogs. I can usually get those kinds of little ones to warm up to me pretty quickly on their own terms. I would love to do a meet and great with your fur baby before you book me so we can see how the interaction goes. We can also continue the getting to know you stage with formal drop in visits as needed. I can't have pets where I currently live so I am happy to stay in your home where your baby is most comfortable. I have the most experience with dogs, but am happy to spend time with your cats and small caged pets as well.

Reviews
I am a repeat client of Andrea, and she was great as usual!
Andrea is great and getting to know my dogs.
Repeat customer and once again Draiy provided exceptional at-home care for our 2 cats, 2 adult dogs plus our 7 month old 70 pound Labrador Retriever puppy for the day while we attended an event. Draiy is awesome and we appreciate her worry free Rover experience!! We highly recommend Draiy and look forward to working with her for our future Rover needs!
Our dog had the best couple of days. We received updates and photos each day and our dog was smiling in all of them. We would absolutely request Draiy to dog sit again if we ever need to travel out of town. She was able to handle our 85 lb golden retriever very well.
About Andrea B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am available for in home sitting only. We will go over your pets routine and needs in detail before booking. I have had special needs dogs in the past and will follow instructions precisely because I understand how important it is!
Information Andrea B. would like to know about your pet
I want to know as much about your pet's routine as possible so I can keep things consistent for them. Feeding times/techniques, medication schedules, potty and walk schedules. Any allergies and vet info.
A typical day
I can easily adjust to your pet's specific needs. If your pet is a couch potato I'm happy to cuddle up all day, and it they need multiple walks and mental stimulation and brain games, I can accommodate that as well. Strong pullers are not an issue either.
Services
Andrea can watch in your home
Availability
I work remotely so your pet will have lots of time and attention. They won't be left alone more than 3 hours at a time (and that's just if I have a walking shift at the shelter or need to run an errand).
