Pet care experience
Best dog sitter in the 253 area. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for almost 20 years since I was 14 years old. I love pets especially dogs. I’m a dog owner myself to a wonderful Shiba Inu named Kobe. I have a warm loving family that will make any dog feel at home. I’m very attentive and playful with dogs. Taking your dog on a walk or to the dog park will be no problem. Anything your dog needs I’m here!! I’m also very skilled at training dogs basic discipline moves such as sit, stay, jump, etc. I currently have my own business and work from home so I am available 24 hours 7 days a week to care for your pet. Also super flexible. I have a beautiful home with fully fenced yard. I have a pup of my own to keep your pet company. Home does have children so your pet will get extra belly rubs. Dog park is short drive away. Also trails nearby to stretch your pets legs!
Reviews
D'Andre and his family are very nice and they seemed to take good care of our dogs while they were there. However, there were a lot of things about this stay that D'Andre failed to communicate about and that's why review is only 2 stars. First, when we dropped the dogs off at the scheduled time D'Andre unexpectedly wasn't available and his wife met us instead. I had messaged D'Andre the day before to confirm details yet he didn't let me know he wouldn't be there until after we had arrived and after the scheduled drop off time. The property was not what we were expecting based on the photos, and there was a large dog at the property which wasn't mentioned on D'Andre's profile. That said, his wife was super nice and the new dog seemed to be doing ok with our pups so we still went forward with the stay. Everything seemed fine throughout the stay. Then when we were coming back to pick up the dogs it turns out that at some point during the stay D'Andre had re-located the dogs to a different property about 30 minutes away. Further, D'Andre said we would need to either drive to this new location or pick up our dogs later than the scheduled pick up. We went ahead and drove to the new location rather than wait to get the dogs, and once again D'Andre was unexpectedly called away and not present. He did call to apologize for the inconvenience, but it was a bit frustrating given that his profile mentions he that works from home and is available almost 24/7. When we arrived our dogs were seemingly cordoned off in the house somewhere and home were his teenage children. While we were picking the dogs up another new unknown large dog was present in this second home. Once we had the dogs in the car we realized one had a wound on his nose and the blankets we dropped them off with had vomit on them. Again, situations that we had never heard anything about. The dogs are fine and the photo and video updates we received showed them having a great time, but based on these communication issues we will not book with D'Andre again.
I would not recommend Dre to anyone moving forward. I was not pleased with the service provided. My dog missed 3 meals throughout his 6 day stay as food was provided in individual packaging. I found feces in the dog cage and bed. This is ironic considering Dre runs a cleaning company. This occurred because my dog was locked up for my than than 12hrs at a time(instructions clearly stated no more than 8hrs). This was monitored using my dog’s apple AirTag. Upon arrival for pickup the front door was unlocked and their roommate asleep at 7pm on a Friday. My dog was not safe and secure under Dre’s care. Dre was rather difficult to get a hold of during most of the process and deflected most of his responsibilities to his brother (this was confirmed by their roommate during pickup). He also never provided an updates past day 1. This was a terrible experience to say the least.
Only home other than my own that my fur baby is comfortable in! Super kind & trustworthy
Dre and his family took great care of our young boxer Doug! Very accommodating to our needs.
