your dog and I are buddies
Pet care experience
I have two wonderful rescue dog nieces named Ginger and Pfeiffer, and I have lots of experience walking and sitting for dogs with and without behavioral issues. I regularly sit for a good boy named Bernie who wears a Hannibal Lector-looking muzzle during walks. I am patient and kind and I'll go above and beyond to give your treasured animal friend the care, companionship, and exercise they crave. I'm a songwriter and performer originally from Sioux Falls, SD but have lived / walked furry friends in Kansas City, MO, Los Angeles, CA, and Brooklyn, NY. Relatively new to Chicago and excited to spend time with your dog. I ran the Chicago Marathon on Oct 7, 2018, and I'd love to include your dog in some of my training runs for future races! Thanks for your consideration.
Reviews
Chico loves Andrew! And I can enjoy my time away knowing Chico is having the time of his life at home.
Andrew did a great job with Lily! They had a great time on their walk and she snoozed happily while he hung out. He was super friendly, and gave frequent reassuring updates.
Chico loved Andrew! I have already booked him again for two upcoming weekends. I did not have the best experience with Rover my last time booking, so I was pretty nervous leaving my dog with someone new. Andrew sent me updates and pictures so I knew my pup was in good hands and I’m thankful for it.
I love having Andrew house sit when we go out of town! He takes Woodrow for runs and takes care of things around the house...I couldn’t be happier with his service. Woodrow is a 3 yr old, high-energy border collie mix who needs a lot of exercise, and Andrew always takes him on plenty of walks and jogs to keep him happy. He also takes great pics and is super responsive. Highly recommend!
