Experienced Dog Walker & Caregiver

Pet care experience

I'm a dog loving artist living in Kensington. I grew up on long Island with a miniature schnauzer in the family, and more recently a 60 pound pit-bull mix in a neighborhood with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I also lived in a boarding house for a period with a 140 pound German shepherd mix, a smaller husky, and their 6 puppies, where I was one of the main caretakers for the pups and parents. I have a lot of experience as a dog sitter for my neighbors and friends, whether it was keeping their dog at my house or staying at theirs for a weekend or even just daily visits to their own house to walk and feed the dog and other pets. Why I love dog sitting I have been around dogs since before I can remember. My family and neighbors have always had dogs and I loved nothing more than spending time with them. My family adopted Allie, our Miniature Schnauzer when I was 12 years old and our new pup Nova last year. My experience administering medication I am comfortable and have experience giving medicine orally. I am also comfortable and well experienced in giving eye and ear drops if necessary.

Andrew and Matea are amazing! I would leave my dog with them any day! They are sweet and caring and treated my dog so nicely. They walked her everyday and took her to the dog park. She was treated so well. Highly recommend. I am a repeat customer.

We had a wonderful experience with Andrew. Met him for a get to know the day before, agreed on a time to drop off Buddy the next day, dropped him off, was able to check in a few times throughout the weekend and picked him up. Andrew sent us a few pictures to help ease or nerves about being away from him for the first time. Andrew was so kind and Buddy adjusted well to him. I would definitely recommend Andrew for anyone that need a short gateway. Thanks Andrew

Andrew is the perfect sitter for me. He responded promptly, comminicated well, and was very flexible. I could take one look at my Kouie and knew he had a great time there!

Our pups were so happy when we picked them up and we got updates throughout the weekend. Couldn't be better!

Information Andrew S. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer to know if there are any particular or special personality traits or quirks that your dog might have. In terms of breed preferences I have none. It doesn't matter to me what your dog looks like.

A typical day

Time I'll spend with your dog The days I have listed as available are otherwise my days off so I would plan on spending as much time with your dog as you wish. I have no problem spending most of the day with your pup. Extra house-sitting services I am absolutely willing to take care of daily tasks such as watering plants, bringing in mail, feeding tanked or caged pets, really anything involved with looking after the house.
