About: I have had pets my entire life and love all kinds! I had to put my senior dog down recently and I miss having a buddy to walk with every morning, over lunch and in the evenings. Although I'm not ready to get another dog of my own, I would love to treat your best friend as my own. I work in an office full-time with a flexible schedule and walk in Washington Park over lunch every day - even in the snow! I can stop by for a care visit or a walk early in the mornings before work, over lunch and in the evenings. I have had many senior dogs and currently have 2 cats. I am experienced in giving medicine if needed. I also love to play with a puppy and help with light training! I currently work in an office by Washington Park and walk over lunch. I would love to have a buddy walk with me! I can do care visits and/or walks before work, over lunch and in the evenings. I have a flexible schedule. I am happy to come to your home and pick up your dog if they are ok with car rides and take to the park. I am also happy to walk them around your neighborhood or play with them in your yard.

About: I have been a proud dog owner my entire life, which has given me a deep, natural understanding of canine behavior and needs. Over the past 5 years, I have channeled that lifelong passion into dedicated pet care, managing everything from structured daily routines to specialized behavioral and medical needs. Raising my own dogs has taught me how to handle multi-dog dynamics, maintain precise feeding schedules, and provide a safe, loving environment. I pride myself on treating every guest pup with the exact same protective care and attention I give my own, ensuring you have total peace of mind. I work a consistent part-time schedule on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays until 4:00 PM. This leaves my Tuesdays, Thursdays, and entire weekends completely wide open for dedicated, full-time pet care! On my workdays, I am fully available for evening check-ins, walks, and overnight boarding. Because my routine is highly predictable, I can easily adapt to your dog's specific feeding, walking, and potty schedules to ensure they never miss a beat. Safety and total peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, visiting pups receive active supervision and slow, controlled introductions with my two friendly German Shepherd mixes. In your home, I strictly honor your established routines, keeping feeding times, exercise habits, and home security checks precise so your pet feels completely safe, secure, and comfortable.

“I’m thankful that I found Andrew on here! Lady, our rescue has issues with strangers. Andrew and I scheduled several meet & greets along with a trial walk. I was extremely impressed with how gentle and patient he was with her, it seemed like a perfect fit. I went from being completely nervous booking to complete relief after her first walk with him. I definitely recommend him!”

About: I started pet sitting when I worked at my first vet clinic. And, because I love animals so much, I have never stopped. I grew up with dogs, cats, ducks and every pet in between! Currently, I have 2 dogs, a Jack-Russell mix named Jake and a Beagle mix named Macy. They are extremely pet/people friendly and they love new company! Also, I worked as a veterinary assistant for a a few years, so I am very comfortable with administering medications and taking care of your pets special needs. I will provide whatever accommodations that are needed and I will make sure that your pets feel safe and comfortable. Most of all, I will always keep an open line of communication with you. I know how it feels being away form your pet and I know the importance of regular updates and pics. I look forward to hearing from you and I can’t wait to met your pets! :) 🏡 House Sitting + Boarding 🏡 (Overnight) Evening - Morning; I do offer some flexibility, however there could be an additional fee if check in/out times are drastically different from what I have set. I currently work from home full time. This means I can fully dedicate all of my time to your fur babies and their individual needs. I will care for your pet/pets the same way every single time. And, I will always treat your pet/pets as is if he or she were my own.

Laura did an awesome job as usual! She checked in and updated me with picks of the walk. I can trust her to care for my pup while I’m out of town.

It was great meeting Laura and I felt very confident she and my Tessy would be fine. I really appreciated the notes and pictures. I will definitely look her up again if I'm in her area.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
