Caring fun for dogs in Kenmore!

Pet care experience

Hi - I'm a lifelong dog owner and currently own an Alaskan Klee Kai or mini-husky. Your dog will be the only visiting dog at my home - I only board a single dog at a time to ensure a service focus. I've previously had a golden retriever, Australian terrier, pit bulls, and daschund -- I enjoy all types of dogs and love learning more about them! I love to spend time with all kinds of dogs and stay active and fit with fun walks around the North Kirkland and Kenmore / Bothell areas. I'd love to know more about your dog and what they enjoy or any special needs. I'm retired so have a flexible and open schedule to focus on dog-care with awesome dogs around the area! Reliable with strong communication after years in the tech industry. I am currently offering dog walking and drop-in services and schedule a meet & greet to get to know your dog and ensure a great fit, before we set up service. Thank you in advance!

Andy is a wonderful sitter! Stella received so much attention, walks, trips to Marymoor and looked so happy from all the photos I received. I'll definitely be reaching out to Andy for future stays.

Andy was an excellent dog sitter. He was very knowledgeable about working with our puppy, and flexible with us. He treated her like an honored guest and was incredibly communicative. We would love to hire Andy every time we go out of town!

We had a great expereoence with Andy for a weekend stay. Rudy is on the anxious side but seems to have done very well. Andy sent lots of pictures and updates which was very nice for us! Andy was very responsive to texts and calls and we were able to meet him beforehand. Thank you Andy for taking such good care of our Rudy!
