Walks, Hikes & Cozy Companionship
Pet care experience
With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I bring a lifetime of love, patience, and knowledge to every pet I care for. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs — including seniors, shy animals, and those with special needs. I also have experience training puppies, helping them learn basic commands, build confidence, and start good habits early. As an active person who enjoys walking and hiking, your dog will get plenty of exercise and outdoor enrichment. I’m also comfortable giving medications (oral and topical), cleaning up accidents with compassion, and maintaining a calm, structured environment — especially important for young or anxious pets. Every animal I care for is treated like my own. My goal is not just to provide care, but to offer consistency, comfort, and companionship while you're away.
Reviews
I’ve known Andrew for over 13 years, and he’s always had a natural connection with animals. He’s patient, caring, and animals seem to instantly trust him. Andrew has rescued numerous stray animals over the years, always going out of his way to make sure they’re safe and cared for. He also trained his own puppy from scratch and is currently diving into agility training, which speaks to both his dedication and desire to keep learning and growing as a pet caregiver. He’s also an avid hiker and absolutely loves taking dogs along on outdoor adventures—making sure they’re not only exercised, but also having fun and feeling included. Any pet would be lucky to spend time with Andrew, and any pet parent can feel confident knowing their furry family member is in the best hands.

Availability
Caring for animals is part of my everyday life. Because I've structured my schedule around my pet responsibilities, adding care for others' pets fits naturally into my schedule. I'm organized, flexible, and attentive, and I love being able to provide consistent, loving care - whether that's for a quick drop-in or extended stays.
