Pet care experience

I have been petsitting and housesitting for 12 years, caring for dogs of every shape, size, age, and temperament (as well as cats, fish, birds, and guinea pigs!). From untrained puppies to seniors, chihuahuas, to lab and pitbull mixes, I've done it all. I started off with my aunt's beagle, arriving every day after my classes to take her on walks, play in the yard, feed her, and give her attention. From there, I branched into caring for my coworkers dogs, and through these people's referrals, branched out from there. I grew up surrounded by dogs throughout my life and the joy and fun that comes from playing with them and taking them on adventures is unparalleled. I am fully available on weekdays and most weekends.

Andrea did a fantastic job watching our two dogs and cat (and frog). She is a an excellent communicator and gave us daily updates with pictures. The pets were well cared for and the house was clean and tidy when we arrived home. Overall an exceptional experience and we will certainly use her again in the future.

Andrea stayed at our home for 10 days with our dog Archie. We were very happy with Andrea. She provided great communication and sent us pictures once or twice a day. We could tell Archie was having the best time with her. We would have no problem recommending Andrea for her pet sitting services. We definitely plan on using Andrea’s services in the future.

Andrea is amazing!!! She has dog sat for our puppies multiple times and is so great. They love her and she gives us such a peace of mind when we travel. She will send you updates on how your dog(s) are doing and pictures too if you want them. This last time she pet sat, she she put our garage lights on for us so when we came home at night we wouldn’t be completely in the dark and set the pups up with their peanut butter bones and a light for them too. She is awesome and we will definitely use her again! Highly recommend!!

Andrea did a great job taking care of our 3 dogs while we were on vacation. She gave heart meds to our senior girl and made sure our youngest dog got plenty of exercise and maintained his schedule. She brought in our mail and even took out our recycling. She took care of our home and gave all three dogs the attention and affection that they needed while we were away. We were very thankful to have her!
