Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: WHY pay to lock up your dog, your buddy, when they can be loved and cared for at Andy's Hangout a HOME away from home at my home on the Southwest side of the Valley near 215. AND u can have peace of mind knowing your baby is being loved and cared for. I loooove dogs and nothing tears me up more than seeing them being taken to a kennel or a vet to spend 23 hrs in a cage. Leaving them scared, abandoned and confused. Becoming a pet boarder gives me the opportunity to save them from that giving them full advantages of hanging out at home with me, with one on one attention and complete freedom. I look at dogs like humans and treats them as such. My family laughs at me about it! I always take pups’ feelings into consideration, treat them as my children, and do everything in my power to keep them happy and safe. Any pup in my care will receive boundless love and attention. Dogs will love getting outside with me, whether we’re enjoying the quiet cul-de-sac neighborhood or playing rambunctious games in the lovely, grassy backyard or just hangout and get plentiful kisses and cuddles. We will arrange a meet and greet for you and your pet/pets to visit my home so we can chat and they can sniff around.. LOL! I have over 63 references and lots of repeat clients. You can now go away on vacation and let your pets have one too. No more guilty feelings, no more staying home so you don't have to leave them behind! Look forward to hearing from you!

Andrea took very good care of our two boys while we attended a funeral out of State. We had not had our dogs boarded in the area prior since we were new to the area and did not know who to use. We went on to Thumbtack and filled out the information and she replied very promptly that she was available and interested in helping us out. We went to her home with our dogs the same day to meet. Things looked good and we chose her and took our dogs to her home the next day. She gave us regular updates with photos of our dogs to keep our minds at ease while we were away. Everything was discussed and agreed to prior to our leaving and there were no surprises upon return. I would highly recommend her for boarding of your dogs.

I boarded my medically fragile 13 yr old rescue chihuahua with Andrea at 'Andy's Hangout', and I could not be happier. My sweet fur-baby is so much brighter, healthier and more active after 3 weeks of being with Andrea than she was when I left. Andrea is a loving, knowledgeable, and attentive caregiver, and her home and her securely fenced grassy backyard is the ideal set up. Her home is clean and well organized to provide a safe, comfortable and enjoyable environment for her doggie guests. She limits the number of dogs she cares for to 6 maximum, and she is very careful to ensure that the breeds and temperaments and special needs will be a good mix. Andy does not accept new boarders without a meaningful meet and greet, and it was so reassuring to me to see how comfortable and at ease my baby girl felt in Andy's home during that visit. Andy was very committed to understanding my pup's special needs and care, and to doing things exactly as I specified. At the same time, in areas where I myself was unsure about the best approach, she offered me several very creative and helpful ideas which I would have never thought of, and which ultimately proved very effective. Andrea is intelligent, and she was so patient and interested in learning about my pup's medical challenges. This gave me great comfort to know that she would not only be following directions, but she also would be able to anticipate potential problems and prevent issues almost as well I would be able to do if I was there. And to be honest, in some cases she would probably do even better than me bc of her extensive experience with dogs, and her whole-hearted commitment and diligence to giving her best to each pet. Andy provided me daily text messages and photos, and even videos. Most of these messages and images transmitted such a sense of her love and joy and celebration of small victories that it was hard for me to believe that we were complete strangers before this boarding experience. After countless hours of searching and researching for an ideal yet affordable dog boarding place, I feel so fortunate and relieved to have found Andrea. I just can't even imagine a better boarding 'mom' and 'home' for my baby girl than Andrea at 'Andy's Hangout'.

I used Andy's services 2 times now. My dogs were happy to see her the second time which made me happy becuase they remembered her and obviously liked her. I get updates and she is very attentive.

Andy is AWESOME! She is so great with my dog, Frenchie, and they love each other! Andy also checks in and lets me know how my Frenchie is doing and my dog is always happy when I get home. That hasn't always been the case, so I truly value their relationship and her respect for me needing to make sure everything is ok. I've used Andy's services a couple times now and I won't go to anyone else! I recommend her to all my furry friend moms.
