Pet care experience

FENCED YARD, HOME EVERY DAY

(technically Nicholasville, but really north Jessamine— just past Fayette Co. line) Been dogsitting since grade school. Cosmo is our doodle who’s great with other dogs — loves to play, but takes correction and doesn't dominate. I’m around all day, so the dogs go out whenever they like and stay with me inside the rest of the time.

Andrew and his family were amazing!!! Chia had a great time with them and Cosmo. There was communication through the stay with photos and videos. They truly treated my dog as their own. I have complete confidence that when my Chia is with him she is safe, cared for and made as comfortable as possible.

Andrew did a great job taking care of my dog and was incredibly quick to respond to any messages of mine during the week. Would book again in the future and recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter.

Andrew was so gentle with Ivy and made her feel comfortable in a new environment-he also sent me a couple of pictures which put me at ease!

Safety, trust & environment

Big, fenced yard: can go outside as needed/wanted, on demand. Quiet, low-traffic neighborhood. Sleep in our room. During the day, welcome to chill near/with us, by themself, or crated if desired. Nighttime arrangements as needed — ideal is to keep to the schedule that you've already established and your dog expects. Small(er) dogs allowed on furniture, and/or beds.

Pets

A typical day

Fetch, tug, chase — indoors and out. Inventory the yard: sniff shrubs & bushes and the varmint what's been burrowing under the shed. Bark at the neighbor cat. Catalog kitchen aromas and maintain proximity to all foodstuffs. Enjoy scheduled and unscheduled treats. Sleep it off in a quiet corner or at my feet or beside me on the couch. Greet the kids & mom when they get home from school — plus the odd guest & visitor (like the grandparents) who drop by and are delighted to make your acquaintance. Cuddles and pets as desired. Lots of attention! Your dog will not be alone unless it wants to be. We will be overjoyed to meet your dog and sorry to see it go. My goal is for your dog to get so comfortable here that they're almost sorry when you come to pick them up.
