Highlights
Pet care experience
Dogs bring me joy, I’ll share it!
I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and they’ve always been my favorite thing in the world. Dogs are family—loyal, funny, adventurous, and incredibly loving companions. Because of this, caring for dogs has always come naturally to me. I’ve spent years helping raise and train dogs and regularly help friends and family take care of their pets when they’re away. I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. Now that I have more free time, I decided to do more of what I love—spend time with dogs and give them the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while their owners are away. My goal is always to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. For overnight stays, my standard rate includes evening care, overnight, and the morning routine. I may step out for a few hours during the day, but I’m always happy to provide full-day or constant care if needed—just let me know!

Safety, trust & environment
My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I know that every dog has their own routine, personality, and rules, so I make it a priority to follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep things consistent. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the home and the dog’s established routine: feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any training or house rules they’re used to. I find consistency helps dogs feel secure and relaxed. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also maintaining the structure they’re used to. I can also provide regular updates and photos upon request so owners can feel confident that their pet is happy and well cared for.
Ratings and reviews
Andrew was wonderful. Our dogs really liked him. He sent pictures and kept us updated the entire time we were gone. We would absolutely have Andrew stay with our dogs again.
Andrew helped us out last minute and George was very comfortable with him!
Andrew was easy to work with, and I appreciate him watching my dog, Oso. Came home to a happy dog. Thank you!

Schedule
I work from home during the week, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to check in on pets during the day if needed. I’m usually able to use my lunch break for walks, drop-ins, or quick visits to make sure your dog is getting attention and exercise. After work, I’m available for longer visits, walks, or evening care. I’m especially flexible on Friday nights and throughout the weekends, when I have more time to dedicate to making sure your dog gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care.
