Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Dog’s Second Home!
I’ve spent years working with dogs, from managing a daycare and boarding facility to caring for them in my own home. I’m comfortable with all sizes, ages, and temperaments, and I focus on creating a calm, well-managed environment where dogs can settle in quickly and feel comfortable. Animals have always been a big part of my life. I had a German Shepherd and Wolf mix for 15 years, along with a cat who was with me for over 20, so I understand how much they mean and how important it is to know they’re in good hands. I have a soft spot for senior dogs and make sure they get the extra patience and attention they need.

Ratings and reviews
Andy was great to work with. Amelia had a fantastic time during a day care visit! We’d absolutely book with Andy again!
Andy was great! He met us beaucoup early in the AM on a weekend to come and pick our puppy up from a hotel where we were catching a tour bus. He then sent copious videos for our perusal throughout the day, so we could see our puppers having as much fun as we were having on tour. Andy was very accommodating and communicative about both pickup and drop-off times too — highly recommend!
Andy did such a great job of sending pictures daily. He sent multiple photos and videos each day, as well as a small write up of the day's activities and how my dog was feeling. It was obvious from the photos that my dog was clearly happy and well cared for. Overall, it was an excellent pet sitting experience.
Andy is a gem! He made sure our sweet Isabela felt at home, taking her on fun walks and treating her as his own pet. We are so thankful we found him! We will definitely be booking with him again.
Helped me when I didn't bring the right stuff for her. Kept her entertained and happy during her stay. Great guy.
Andy was fantastic and sent us pictures and great summaries throughout Marky’s time with him. Our dog can get anxious away from home but he seemed at ease with Andy. He got lots of walks! Will definitely work with Andy again.

Schedule
My schedule is fully open and dedicated to pet care, which allows for flexibility with boarding and walks. I’m home throughout the day, so dogs get consistent supervision and attention, helping them feel comfortable and settled while they’re here.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a clean, well maintained apartment in Belltown, with easy access to great walking routes like the Olympic Sculpture Park, the Elliott Bay Trail, and quieter streets nearby for shorter walks. Inside, I keep the space tidy and free of hazards so dogs can relax and move around comfortably. I’m home throughout the day, which allows for consistent supervision and a calm, structured environment where dogs can settle in and feel at ease.
A typical day
A typical day includes walks around the neighborhood and along the waterfront, with the Olympic Sculpture Park just a few blocks away for a longer outing. I like giving dogs a mix of fresh air, movement, and time to explore, depending on their energy and personality. For more active dogs, I can add extra walks, playtime, and engagement throughout the day. For dogs who prefer a slower pace, I’m just as happy to keep things relaxed at home, making sure they’re comfortable, settled, and well cared for.
