I want to do what's best for your furry friends. If you have a "lazy" dog that likes to sleep all day, I'll let them! If they need to play or walk a lot, I can do that, too! I want to keep their routine similar to how you have it set and what they most enjoy, so I will feed them the same way you do, let them out/walk them at the same times you do, and so on. Great Danes, Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Labs, Miniature Schnauzers, Beagles, Pitts, Terriers, Chihuahuas, Doodles, a Sheltie, an Akita, a Yorkie, a and so many lovable mutts. I also have experience with cats, fish, rats, hamsters, gerbils, and rabbits.

Information Andrea D. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages! It is always helpful to know beforehand how active a dog is, what games they like to play, how they like to meet new people, how they get along with other dogs, and if there are any special needs like daily medication, or any special quirks or fears like stairs.

A typical day

I will come to your home for a walk or a drop-in visit, which would include playing in your fenced yard. I can play ball, play with other toys, or just let your pet out for bathroom breaks, some sniffing around, and belly rubs and ear scritches! We can also take a walk around the neighborhood or a nearby park.

Pet care experience

I absolutely love animals, especially dogs! I've been taking care of pets my entire life--my parents made me responsible for feeding our beautiful Golden Retriever when I was five.

We love Andrea! She has stayed with our little love, Cleo, twice now and it’s been a dream for both experiences. Andrea is thoughtful and communicative, leaving us messages and sending updates about Cleo’s adventures. I always know that Cleo is in great hands when Andrea is here. We will definitely continue to work with her!

Andrea is a dream dog whisperer. Our little elderly pup had a wonderful experience with Andrea while we were gone. We got daily updates about their walks and adventures which is something I really appreciated while being away. And, we came back to a very happy dog at the end of our travels. We will definitely work with Andrea again!

Andrea did an incredible job with our boy. We were anxious to leave him with a stranger for the first time, but the pictures and multiple updates throughout the day made us feel at ease while we were away and allowed us to enjoy our trip without worrying.
