Open 3-day weekends, large backyard

Pet care experience

I love animals and am fully capable of spoiling your dog (if needed)! I had an Australian Shepherd for a few years as a child, was a pet sitter for my neighbors' corgis and shepherd mix for a few years as a teen, and had a yellow lab/husky mix rescue from 2011 - 2017. I'm available most Saturdays, Sundays, Mondays, and weeknights. I have years of experience with local dog parks. I can dog/house sit, daycare, board, walk, play, feed, medicate, drive, water plants, check the mail, etc. I have a big couch, queen size bed, master bedroom, carpeted floor, large unfenced backyard and regular front yard. There are Little League baseball fields and a wooded trail on my street. I live with non-smoking housemates, most of whom knew my lab/husky.

If I could give more stars I would to Andrew!!! Came on time 5am! and followed all instructions given from walking schedules to giving one of my dogs medication. Always gave us updates along with pictures. If Andrew had any questions always texted. We got reports from our neighbors they noticed he was good with our dogs. We will be rebooking for future trips!

I have known Andrew personally for over a year, and have seen the high level of care and expertise he has when it comes to caring for his own animals. A true dog lover, Andrew gives plenty of attention and affection to every dog he crosses paths with. He places a high priority on playtime and reliable meal times for his pets and is very attune to their needs.

Andrew is super responsible and takes care of his dog really well. He truly cares about dogs and animals. I would trust him with pets.

I've known Andrew for many years (he is my younger brother) - and his first love is for animals. Dogs, cats, horses, pet rodents, and more. He seems "at home" with them. He is always thinking about their needs, and being affectionate and playing with them. He is a very responsible and reliable pet owner as well - we grew up with dogs in the house, and Andrew took over sole care for our most recent family dog when the rest of the family moved out of the city. I would not hesitate to put him in the care of any pet!
