Hi there! I retired from 20 years as a veterinary technician in a supervising role at the same clinic! I currently provide pet care for several veterinarians, as well as many long-term veterinary clinic clients and many care. com clients! I am very trusted and reliable and I pride myself on being consistent in my care and I would love to become a part of your pet family too! I'm extremely comfortable with special needs pets, e. g., diabetics, renal disease, epileptics, difficult to medicate, etc.. but no job is too big or too small, as I also walk several dogs currently and I'd love to walk your beloved dogs as well!

I just wanted to write another review for Andrea. She continues to be our dog walker and pet sitter. She truly is a gift and is reliable, trustworthy and such a wonderful human. Andrea is the BEST!

Andrea is a great pet caretaker.  She not only takes into account providing great care for your pet but also the pet family and is very accommodating to assist in caring for your pet needs.

Andrea took such great care of my old man, Kipper. She was sweet and kind to him. Kipper was 14 years old, and she did drop-in visits to care for him. She gave him his meds, sent me updates, and picked up his poop because he is old and couldn't hold it sometimes. Kipper has now passed and left this earth. Andrea took care of him when he was old and fragile while we went out of town. I am so grateful for her.

Andrea is an educated veterinary assistant and former Senior Supervising Technician with extensive medical knowledge. She totally focuses on your beloved pet and can provide gentle yet candid assessments of your pet's situation if there is a medical issue. She is quick and thorough, yet will take time to discuss your pet's or pets' needs. Andrea is friendly and extremely trustworthy. You do not have to worry about anything if you hire her and provides text updates of your pet(s). Andrea also has reasonable pricing. She was recommended to me by a friend.

I trust her with my three dogs. Her veterinary training makes her aware of my dogs conditions. She is sensitive to the one year old twins nervousness when it is windy and monitors the old guy who has had both knees rebuilt. 

She has been with me six months as of this writing (4/2022) and has a job here as long as she wants.

Andrea is a gem.  She is very dependable and punctual.  The couple of times she took my sweet boy to the vet, I never worried about her being here on time.

Andrea is absolutely amazing with our two dogs and their 11 3-week old puppies. My wife and I call her the dog whisperer because the puppies are so calm after she helps them feed. Her interactions are so warm and kind and you can tell she really loves what she does! Wish there were more people out there like her! Would highly recommend!

Andrea does an amazing job with my older, special-needs kitty. She is gentle and kind, and my kitty and I both trust her utterly. She is also extremely dependable and her vet experience is a life-saver!

Andrea has vet experience with animals.  She is very gentle and thorough with care.  She fed my newly hatched butterfly and it was alive when I returned home.  Everything was in order and not a poop in the litter boxes...she said she loves her job and she truly does!!!!  Beth K

What a blessing it was to have Andrea help me with my pups. She was caring, compassionate, fun and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for a caring person who knows what she is doing.

Andrea was so caring and so knowledgeable about our dogs 2 Heelers and a schnauzer. One heeled has a medical condition and she knew of it and that comforted us. The dogs warmed up to her and played. We needed someone for my daughters rehearsal dinner and wedding. Andrea went out of her way to be there early, to stay late, to bringing the dogs to the wedding for pictures. We couldn't have found the perfect and most caring person for our  dogs!!

I have tried a couple of dog sitters in the area and most were completely unreliable/untrustworthy. Andrea always keeps her word on being timely and respectful as it relates to when she will be with my dogs. We are so thankful to have her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies!

Andrea is the best!! We trust her with our two dogs when we go out of town. They are far from low-maintenance, but she is experienced, patient and helps us feel confident that they are getting attention while we're away. When I was having a hard time training our newest adoptee on a leash, she began her training for me and taught me what I needed to know to continue. I had been at the end of my rope and was so grateful to have a pro's advice!! I highly recommend Andrea for all of your pet care needs :)

Andrea helps with fluid injections and other special needs for my senior Westie.  It's such a huge relief for me whenever I have to travel to know I can count on her.  With her veterinarian tech background, I have complete confidence that she can handle whatever comes up!  I highly recommend her even if your baby doesn't have special needs.

Andrea is a lifesaver!!  I seriously don't know what I would do without her.  I have a cat that despises being put in a carrier.  For me, it's literally impossible to get my cat in the carrier all by myself.  I knew that Andrea had worked for a very reputable vet for years in the past.  So, I call her every time I need assistance putting my cat in the carrier.  Andrea makes it look so easy!  I'm always amazed at her patience and skills.  

In addition, I have hired her multiple times to feed and take care of my 4 cats while I'm away on vacation.  Andrea is incredibly trustworthy and reliable.  I'm so glad I found her!

Andrea is fantastic!  We totally trust her in our home with our 5 dogs and she takes care of our chickens, ducks and geese too!
Our pups love her and she deals with all their nuances with patience and tenderness. 
She has 20 years experience working with our vet as well so that just adds to our confidence and peace of mind. 
Simply put she is wonderful. We could go on and on!

Andrea was the Vet Tech lead at a Veterinary that I have been going to for over 7 years and was recommended by the team there. Initially one of my cats was diagnosed with a serious heart condition and she would visit twice a day to give him medications and of course give him some love while I was out of town. She was very diligent about giving him his medications, helping to extend his life. I've continued using Andrea while I am out of town to check on my two cats and she is always on time and conscientious about following up. I absolutely trust her and will be happy to continue using her services while I am out of town. I have probably used her a total of 7 times over the last 12 months or so, varying from a few days to over a week when on vacation. Her background experience with animals working at a vet for well over 10+ years, and her compassion, make her a trusted partner to check on my pets when I cannot.

Andrea first started pet sitting for me ~8yrs ago. I travel for extended periods, frequently for business.  After unsuccessful trial runs w/various local boarding options that my bully hated, my vet referred Andrea.  Andrea is over-qualified than typical pet sitters - she has been a godsend.  She has extensive professional experience working with animals alongside veterinarians as a vet tech, so it is comforting to know that she can easily identify if my babies become sick while I am gone and need medical attention. Besides feeding, playtime & potty clean-up, she assists w/mail collection, trash & other special requests.  She is 100% dependable and trustworthy.  I now have a new puppy in the house which she watches with my older dog and the transition to two dogs has been no issue for her.  Andrea is passionate & dedicated to her work and my dogs adore her.  There is no one else that I trust to watch my dogs.

I'm a Veterinarian, and I've worked with Andrea for 18 years. She cares about animals and is knowledgeable and skillful in all aspects of pet care. Andrea is trustworthy, dependable, and punctual.

Andrea has taken care of my furry babies for years and I HIGHLY recommend her.  She is very reliable and always keeps me informed as to when she is coming or has been over.  She is always agreeable to my requests for a stop-over even if they are very last minute.  One of my dogs is geriatric, so I love the fact that she has so much veterinary experience and would be aware and capable if a health problem arose.  I am happy that she is pet sitting full time now so I can have her stay overnight with my pups, kitty, and bird when I'm out-of-town.  I know she'll take great care of my house just like she does my pets.  I truly cannot recommend Andrea highly enough.  Any animal would be lucky to have her as a care-giver!
