Providing a home away from home!
Pet care experience
We are very friendly, honest, organized, and punctual. Whatever your dog needs, we’ll make it work! We rescued Iris July 2018, and she’s our family. Iris is a lab-collie mix. She’s very sweet, loving, animated, and such a joy. She loves meeting new people and dogs and can’t get enough of the butt scratches. We recently added a new family member, Boni Chopper. Rescued her in September 2023. She is also very sweet and loves meeting new dogs and people. They’ve had experience with having another dog over and they do great! They have a blast playing and taking tests lol I have taken care of a variety of dogs with different needs, and I’ve noticed that familiarity, discipline, and routine really help the pupper feel comfortable and safe. I’ve also noticed that toys and exposure to other dogs help give a dog the ultimate experience, and Iris and Boni are very eager to share their toys and meet new friends! *** I also love taking photos of dogs, so if you are interested in getting great quality photos, let me know! Would love to provide great shots for you!
Reviews
We couldn't be happier with Andrea. Loves our dog as her own. Our dog clearly considers their place her home away from home and wishes we went on vacation more often.
Andrea is the best. Took great care of our dog, communicates with us in a timely, effective, and friendly manner, and was understanding of our puppy being a puppy! The dog clearly now considers their place a second home.
Andrea and Richie took great care of Parker, my senior shih tzu that is blind and needs medication 2x a day. They were very quick to respond and kept me updated. I would definitely have Parker vacation with them in the future.
Our dog Lacey had a great time staying with Andrea and her dog Iris! Andrea was very responsive and sent photos and videos to keep us updated on their field trips. Great job!

We don’t have a fence but we do have lots of grassy space behind our apartment (first floor). I always have dogs on a leash, but it’s nice to sit outside in the grass especially in nice weather. We usually spend our time inside enjoying cuddles and naps. Spring and Summer time are the best because we can go on longer walks or the dog park. I’d love to take dogs to metazoa, so if you’re dog does well with other dogs, we can go on an adventure! If you need me to drop by and check in your pup, I’ll make sure they get plenty of cuddles and pets and all the things they need (food/water/medication/treats). Of course a proper bathroom time is important, we’ll go on a walk to make sure they get some physical activity!

Information Andrea E. would like to know about your pet
Does your dog bark continuously? Need to know since I live in an apartment, wouldn’t want to bother neighbors. Do they have a crate? Not necessary to have one, but good to know if they are a puppy or male to make sure they’re secured in case we need to leave home for whatever reason.
A typical day
Walks on the Monon Trail; Trip to Eagle Creek Dog Park ($5) per dog, need proof of vaccinations; Metazoa Brewery dog park; Trip to the dog bakery; Plenty of nap times; Toys; and Playing with Iris and Boni

Availability
During the school year, I have classes on campus but I live close to my grad school, so I’m not far to make sure doggies are taken out for walks or being fed. My husband, Richie, is home Saturday-Tuesday and I am working remotely so someone will almost always be home during the week when I’m not in class, unless we need to step out for errands or scheduled meetings/gatherings.
