Pet care experience

I have the knowledge and the ability to provide quality socialization and enrichment. My goal is to maintain a sense of normalcy while you’re away. Education is important but practical experience in the field is critical! Throughout my animal centered lifestyle and career I have been trained in animal care. I am familiar with animal behavior and a variety of dog training styles. 🐾 I am so excited to help your furry family have a great time while encouraging behaviors that make their humans happy! I have a passion for pets and improving their quality of life one playdate at a time. I am familiar with fearful, anxious, and reactive dogs and also educated on low-stress handling. Let me help you enrich their lives! I like to keep up with your pet's regular routine as much as possible to maintain a relaxed and low-stress environment while you're away! I'd love to teach your pets meaningful new behaviors as needed to keep them safe and content. Happy Traveling 🗺️ 💼 Andrea is an Animal Care Specialist Prior related experience includes: United States Pony Club Member Floor Manager at Prairieland Feeds in Savoy, IL ASPCA employee Dog Trainer CPDT Animal Nutrition Enthusiast with multiple brand certifications like Natural Balance and Nulo. Certified Field Ornithologist I have been part of the anima industry for almost 20 years. I am currently teaching multiple yoga classes each week and just began studying kinesiology.

My dogs love walking with Andrea, and I love the peace of mind knowing my dogs are safe and having a great time with her. She has been able to walk them on short notice a few times and it has been a lifesaver, she's our go-to walker! Andrea is the best!

Andrea did a wonderful job with my dog as a house sitter. She was responsive to Zora's needs and gave me as much information as I wanted while I was away. I whole-heartedly recommend her as a sitter!

As always Andrea is the best sitter. We love reading her sweet updates about our pets and all the things she did with them during her visit.

A typical day

I love long walks to the park, sniffs around the local pet supply stores and tired out snuggles. Please let me know if you mind them going in the car!
