House Sitting • Oct 06, 2025

Andy is a communicative & skillful dog sitter who provided excellent care for our medically complex dog. Our dog has a specific feeding regimen as well as medications at specific intervals throughout the day, which Andy followed with ease. We also really appreciated that Andy was very intentional about building rapport with our dog to ensure that he was comfortable. In addition, the updates he provided via a Google Photos album were a great way to keep us updated without needing to text back and forth. We highly recommend Andy!

Andrew was reliable and communicative for each visit. We got pictures of all of our pup’s activities and he managed our teething puppy. Will definitely come back to him in the future!

Andy has been so kind and helpful. My work schedule is very hectic and he’s been very easy to work with. I know that my dogs are in good hands while I’m away.

Andrew did a great job with my nervous little 5 month old pup! He sent lots of pictures and updates and was overall very accommodating and reassuring! It made me feel a lot better about leaving my puppy with a sitter :)

Andrew was AWESOME! Came to the meet-n-greet with my dogs wearing a tactical vest whose pockets were stuffed with dog toys & treats! Make a great first impression: with me AND my dogs! His knowledge of animals was evident and put my mind at ease. He sent lots of pictures during his visits and both my girls really enjoyed their time with him. Will definitely utilize his services again!
