Pet care experience
Reliable & Caring Dog Sitter
I’ve been caring for dogs for years through dog walking, overnight stays, and pet sitting. One of the first puppies I ever pet sat for is a dog I still care for years later, which has allowed me to build a strong relationship with both the dog and owner over time. Last summer, I started doing overnight stays for two dogs and gained experience with feeding routines, walks, playtime, companionship, and keeping dogs comfortable in their home environment while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I genuinely love spending time with animals and always try to make dogs feel safe, cared for, and treated like family. I’m patient, reliable, attentive, and understand how important it is for owners to know their pets are in good hands.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I currently provide pet care in my client’s home, where pets are usually most comfortable and able to stay in their normal routine and environment. At this time, I’m unable to offer boarding in my own home, as the people I’m currently staying with do not allow pets. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible through feeding schedules, walks, playtime, companionship, and overnight care when needed. I always try to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment and treat both the pets and the home with respect and care.
Ratings and reviews
Andrea has cared for our small dog on several occasions over the past few years. She is very responsible and has always shown up on time and given great care. Andrea is very energetic and enjoys playing with him and taking him for walks. Not surprisingly, our little guy loves her!
We have had Andrea pet sit for our dogs and cat numerous times. Our dogs have some special needs and Andrea has taken care of them extremely well. It is clear that she loves animals, and takes her role of pet sitter seriously. She made sure the dogs were properly exercised and fed, and our cat received an abundance of attention (brushing his long fur) along with feeding. We would trust our pets with Andrea again.

Schedule
Pet care fits well into my schedule alongside my two part-time jobs. I work at a golf course in Bragg Creek and also do housekeeping and laundry at a hotel in Cochrane. My shifts vary, which gives me flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. I’m good at planning my schedule ahead of time to make sure pets get the attention, care, and consistency they need while their owners are away.
