Fun loving and experienced!

Pet care experience

Dogs are the best! I'll treat your pooch as if it were my own. I grew up in a house with many animals (6 cats, one dog, two rabbits, and a bird at the peak) and love to take care of animals. Attention, positive reinforcement, and having fun are my core philosophy in pet care. Understanding how dogs communicate is essential to the way I work. Patience, repetition, and the will to learn make for a great toolkit to help train and care for any dog. Big dogs, little dogs, all dogs are my favorites! I've sat for everything up to an Irish wolfhound and down to a Shiba Inu, and know how to handle myself around dogs of all sizes. Friendly or skittish, there's always a way to make a dog feel loved while giving it the specific care and play it needs.

Andrew has cared for our animals many times. He is very responsible and truly cares about the health and happiness of all of our animals. He's very good about playing fetch with our dog, Daisy, and ensuring she gets plenty of exercise. He also has experience caring for and giving medication to our elderly cats. All the animals are always very happy to see him and we can rest easy knowing they are in good hands.

Andrew has been walking and caring for my lovely husky, Luna, ever since I got her a year ago. He is very helpful and knowledgeable about dog care. He goes above and beyond to make sure Luna is happy, cared for, fed and safe. They go on daily walks at the park, where he makes sure she has fun and plenty of exercise. He is very attentive to her food and behavior. He makes sure that anything that is out of the norm is addressed to the best of his knowledge and makes you aware of it in order for you to take proper action. I recommend Andrew's services if you want your pooch to love their dog walker and if you want someone who will take care of your dog as if they were a part of their own family. Andrew is the ideal dog walker!

Around the area, with preference for parks. I have training as a sprinter from track and field, so running, chasing, and playing ball are all in the docket.
