Hi there! I would love to help take care of your little ray of sunshine. My name is Andrea and I'm currently in graduate school at the U of M with the hopes of soon becoming a nurse midwife. Up until recently, I was working as a social worker in California, but I decided to move back home to Minnesota for the great weather ;) I love animals deeply! I had small and medium dogs growing up (shih tzu, beagle and poodle) and have volunteered at a senior dog rescue for over a year with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Because of my time at the shelter, I am very comfortable with shy/fearful doggos. I also have experience with birds, being the proud mom of a little parrot. I have a very flexible schedule and can arrange to be home for most of the day when I'm boarding, so your fur-baby will hardly ever be alone. In addition, I only board one animal at a time to make sure everyone is safe and pampered 24/7. As a Stanford grad, I'm very organized and dependable so you can rest assured your babies are in capable hands! Pick me!
