Safety, trust & environment

My now, nearly, 5 year old lab I've raised since he was 6 weeks old is the friendliest, goofiest pup that makes friends with every dog and person he meets. I take care of my dog like I do for every one else's special family member: with respect (to them and their owners' training of them), communication, and good vibes

Information Andy K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there’s certain personality traits or health needs that’ll make your dog a happy camper! I prefer (and can handle) larger breeds. I once had a client who was a Leonberger!

A typical day

Walk, run, explore local parks, or if your dog just needs to be let out and get some attention & snuggles. I work remotely so I can give all of the attention to my clients. I’m all for it!

Great Vibes & Care for Your Pup!

Pet care experience

I have grown-up around dogs my entire life and am a proud self-proclaimed dog person/dog dad. I recently moved back to NC after spending the past 5 years in Dallas, originally from Kansas. It's great to be back to NC, this time in Wilmington after my years in the Chapel Hill/Raleigh areas where I had amazing Rover clients. I'm looking to meet some awesome new dogs to hang out with and if your dog wants to meet a new friend they can meet my awesome 4 year old, friendly lovable lab named Luka, raised him since 6 weeks old! I am very active and love to go on walks around town, on the beach (while still dog-friendly season!), or walk parks, whatever you and your pup needs. I recently left my corporate on-site job based in KC for the move to Wilmington for my fiancée's first career opportunity and am in "Freelance Mode", so my schedule is flexible for availability. I have had petsitting/house sitting experience since I was in high school (20+ years). Every person I have pet sat/house sat over the years has repeatedly re-hired me...check my profile reviews :) . I am responsible, a great communicator and good at time management that values my clients' requests for their special 4-legged family member. Whether you're planning for a trip or just need someone to let out your dog during the day, with booking me you know you're getting a responsible, dependent, and great communicator individual who will have your dog as a top priority during our booking, and hopefully future bookings! :)

Andy has been a fantastic job with Ares. Was a hot day and he recognized his heat signs and brought him home. Can't ask for anything more! Thank you for caring for my puppers

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
