Pet care experience

Experienced Pet Lover

Hello, my name is Andy! I am a recent grad school graduate, and right now I have two fur babies (a chinchilla named Pen and a corgi mix named Moss). I have experience with dogs, cats, and other pets with various temperaments and abilities. I specialized in rabbit care during my shelter volunteering experience during my time in 4H, and have had extensive personal experience with cats and dogs, including a diabetic dog. Above everything, I value being kind and patient with all animals while learning their particular quirks and personalities. I can do well with dogs of different sizes and breeds (pit bulls welcomed), and would be willing to walk up to four dogs or two very big dogs. I understand that your animal is a precious part of your family, and my role being with them or in your home is highly respected to me. To note, my schedule is flexible and I do have a car. For pay transparency, as of June 2026: on top of the rover fees the pet parents is shown, rover adds an additional 30% on top of the sitters/walkers rates. Example: if the shown base pay is $30, the sitters/walker receives $21. This goes for any rover service. I offer discounts for repeat clients!

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in a non-fenced in house in Beacon Hill. I typically walk Moss every 3 to 4 hours, for about 2 miles total daily.

House Sitting • Aug 03, 2026

Andy continues to be the best Rover ever. 1 week before a recent scheduled house sitting, my 12yo cat broke her leg and had surgery. Andy came for a pre-visit on their own time to get familiar with our new routine, including 5 medications, a modified litter box and “crate rest”. They took incredible care of Ava during my 2 nights away, sending regular updates. There is no one else I would’ve trusted with Ava so soon after a surgery. We are so lucky to have Andy in our lives!

Andy went above and beyond while dropping in on our cat over the weekend. We would happily book a visit again!

Andy was an excellent drop-in cat sitter! Great communication ahead of time, flexible and open to working with my cat’s unique care needs, and left my place as she found it. Would definitely re-book!

I have lots of experience with oral meds and diabetic shots, but would like to know ahead of time what med schedule your pet may have to plan around my work.
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.
