Availability

Because I work from home full-time, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily life rather than being a side task. I have the unique flexibility to step away from my desk for midday walks and drop-in visits when your pet needs them most. My schedule is not '9-to-5,' which allows me to be highly reliable for consistent daily routines and remarkably responsive to last-minute requests or schedule changes that may arise during your busy work week. My flexible schedule also allows me to easily accommodate specific feeding times, medication windows, and last-minute booking requests.

Information Andrew S. would like to know about your pet

To ensure the best possible experience, please let me know about your pet’s specific triggers, such as reactivity to other dogs, high prey drive (squirrels), or fear of loud noises. I’d also like to know their medical history, including medication schedules, mobility limitations, or any food allergies. Knowing where you keep the 'emergency kit' and your preferred vet’s contact info is also helpful. Lastly, please share their favorite rewards and any quirks that will help me make them feel comfortable and safe!

A typical day

My goal is to make my visit the most relaxing part of your dog’s day by sticking strictly to their favorite routine. We’ll enjoy a gentle walk tailored to their pace—whether that’s a brisk mile or a slow stroll around the block for a senior pup. Back at home, we’ll spend quality time with their favorite toys or just enjoying some quiet companionship and scratches behind the ears. I am particularly patient with seniors, taking the time to assist with mobility or diaper changes with a gentle hand. I always ensure they are safely tucked back into their favorite spot with a fresh bowl of water before I securely lock up and send you a peace-of-mind update.

Reliable, Caring, and Ready to Help

Pet care experience

Hi! With over 20 years of experience as a dedicated dog owner, I provide a level of care that goes far beyond the basics. I have raised dogs from the energetic puppy stages through to the specialized needs of senior care. Whether your companion is a toy breed or an XL giant, I am comfortable and confident in managing their unique temperaments and physical needs. Specialized Skills: • Medical Care: I am experienced in administering medications and managing "doggy diapers" for senior pets or those with mobility issues. • Availability for Constant Supervision: I work from home full-time, meaning your dog will never be left alone for long periods. • Total Flexibility: My schedule allows for last-minute requests and consistent updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I treat every dog in my care exactly like my own with patience, attention, and a lot of heart.

Andrew has been walking my two dogs for a long time, and they absolutely love him! They get so excited every time he arrives. He’s always on time, very reliable, and great with communication. Andrew is respectful of my home and makes sure my dogs are happy, comfortable, and well cared for before he leaves. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet walker.
