Highlights
Pet care experience
WFH Sitter | Active & Attentive
A Lifetime of Animal Stewardship My approach to pet care is rooted in a lifetime of experience. Growing up on a dairy farm, I learned the "dawn-to-dusk" responsibility of animal husbandry across multiple species. I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have served as a trusted sitter for dozens of friends and family members, managing everything from high-energy puppies to seniors with specific medical needs. What I bring to the table: • Farm-Raised: Comfortable with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. • A "Coach’s Eye": Attentive to health, movement, and behavior changes. • Total Reliability: A professional, mature environment where your dog is the priority.

Ratings and reviews
Andrew was great with Rio! He sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Rio clearly had a great time, she’s been napping nonstop since she got home from all the fun and excitement. I would book with Andrew again!
Andrew has not only been an incredible dog dad himself, he brings that same level of care, attention, and love to every dog he watches. He’s extremely knowledgeable about animal behavior and needs, and it shows in how comfortable and happy pups are around him. He’s attentive to details, communicative, and genuinely treats every pet like his own!
If you’re looking for someone to trust with your dog, look no further than Andrew! He has watched my 6-year-old, Finn, multiple times and I never worry when Finn is in his care. Andrew loves being around dogs, and seeks out canine companions often. He’s attentive, communicates well, and makes sure Finn feels right at home. Every time I pick Finn up, he’s happy, exercised, and more in love with Andrew than ever. What sets Andrew apart from other Rovers is his thoughtfulness. He notices the little things, checks in proactively, and since he’s had his own dogs he knows how to handle whatever comes up, too. That kind of care means the world to a pet parent who can’t help but wonder how their pup is doing. With Andrew, your pup will be in great hands. 🐾
Andrew watched my husky Finn for several days and he did an amazing job caring for him! I got frequent updates and pictures, which made me comfortable knowing that my pup was safe and happy. He was also very flexible and easy to communicate with. I will happily ask Andrew to watch my dogs in the future!
Andrew has watched my dog a number of times. He’s got great dogs and is really good with my dog. Watched her when she was a puppy just 9 weeks old and multiple times as she grew up. He’s kind and adventurous. I highly recommend him.

Schedule
Structured, Work-From-Home Care Because I manage my professional life from home, your pet will enjoy a calm, consistent environment with minimal "alone time." My lifestyle is active and outdoors-focused, meaning your dog will receive meaningful engagement and physical activity tailored to their specific energy level and temperament.

Professional Discipline & Training Consistency I have been a coach and a teacher and bring a professional level of discipline and observational skill to every stay. I understand that a "tired dog is a happy dog," but I also know that consistency is key. I pride myself on maintaining the exact training boundaries and command structures you’ve worked hard to establish. Whether it's leash manners or specific house rules, I adapt to your dog's routine to ensure they feel secure and settled. I live in a townhouse with an unfenced, shared lawn.
