Recently stationed in Gulfport and just moved into our new home. My wife and I will go above and beyond when caring for your dog or cats. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have house sat and walked dogs for family and friends for just as long. We have fostered cats as well and have experience with many types of animals. I have watched dogs from 8lbs puppies to 100+ pound dogs and everything in between. I have a fenced in yard and I love to give dogs attention and am always down to take them on a run, play fetch with them and give them lots of attention. I look forward to watching your pets!

Andrew was very communicative and sent tons of pictures. Dill looked like he had an absolute blast and looked very well taken care of!

Doggy Day Care • May 17, 2026

So grateful! We had a last minute cancellation for our two doggos for a doggie daycare day drop off for our baby shower and they were super accommodating last minute. Our dogs had a blast and were so tired after getting back. Highly recommend

Doggy Day Care • Oct 11, 2019

Andrew took fantastic care of my dog! My dog is not the quickest to warm up to strangers, but he didn’t seem to have a problem with Andrew at all! Andrew also responds quickly and is flexible schedule-wise... my booking was SUPER last minute, but he fit us in. He took my dog for a walk and also sent me lots of cute picture updates throughout the day! 10/10 would recommend. :)

Doggy Day Care • Oct 02, 2019

My family and I would like to thank Andrew for taking such good care of our dogs, Petey and Jupiter. He was so thoughtful and conscientious in his communication with us and with his attention to the needs of our dogs. Jupiter is living with cancer, and Andrew was detail oriented in his questions and was very concerned about being prepared for a possible emergency (which thankfully, did not occur). Petey has separation anxiety, and Andrew did all that he could to help Pete relax and feel at home while Pete was in his care. The wonderful photos that Andrew sent lead us to think that he may also have a future as a pet photographer! Thank you so much, Andrew! We highly recommend his services, and we will certainly use him again if we have the opportunity to do so!
