Pet care experience
I have experience caring for puppies as well as adult dogs. I helped raised and train an adorable mini Berendoodle puppy- Finn- last spring. We got him at 3 months old so I'm used to accidents in the house, potty breaks every 30 minutes, the zoomies and everything else puppies tend to throw your way. Most weekends we'd be off hiking and skiing with Finn in his special doggie backpack. Finn recently moved out along with my ex gf :( so I'm down an adventure buddy and canine companion. Your pup will have my undivided attention & affection! Growing up, my family had an Australian Shepherd and then a mostly border collie mutt. They were very energetic dogs and would act up if they didn't get enough exercise. My dog care responsibility was the exercise and I got very good at tuckering them out. If this sounds like your dog, I'll give em a good workout- walk, hike, or time at the park- and return them on their best behavior. My schedule is very flexible. I just graduated from a master's program in December and am currently job hunting. Since I'm not working currently, I can provide walks and dog sitting during the work day with no distractions. I live in a dog-friendly apartment complex just north of downtown Denver. My apartment is located next to Cuernavaca Park, which is my go-to for dog walks. The park has acres of grass and is perfect for fetch and frisbee sessions. If your dog is social, there are usually lots of off leash dogs to play with. If not, there is a nice paved loop for a leashed up walk.
Reviews
Andrew did great with our anxious pup! She is anxious on leash and he was very willing and able to handle her. Communicative and left the apartment very clean.
Thank you so much for getting my boy out for a good walk!
Andrew is great with our Golden Retriever and always on time! She definitely gets her energy out during their walks which is better for everyone. Would highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for a little extra help with their pup!
Andrew would be a PERFECT FIT for Rover!! He has had / loved dogs all his life (Rocky, a Australian Shepard, then a mixed breed - probably Border Collie mix - named Tucker, and most recently, Finn, a Bernedoodle). The only reason Andrew doesn't have a dog himself right now is purely situational; he will have a dog again in the future. When I think of Andrew's perfect day, it would probably include hiking with (his) dog. This guy loves the outdoors with a passion and gives 120% to every project / activity in which he is engaged. Andrew has integrity and loves animals, so getting to walk dogs is a great match. My dog, Daisy and I, have been a pet therapy team for four (4) years. I have been trained to spot people who are good with dogs and those who are not. Daisy LOVED Andrew, and I consider her the best character witness of all! Andrew gets my highest recommendation - and then some! I'm sorry that I live in California because I would definitely use him - daily - if we were in the same state.

I'm a big hiker and would love to take your pooch on a hike if they need some big time exercise during the week. If a couple laps around the park is all they need, I can do that too.
