"In 2008 I got into animal massage because I wanted to further my ability to support the well-being and quality of life for my two senior dogs, Hobo and Poncho. By extension, my training and experience has led me to volunteer at the local animal shelter in Ellensburg, and offer my massage service to the animals of my family, friends and the larger community. It is fun and satisfying to communicate with animals while offering healing touch. Showing others how they can help their animal friends is another benefit of doing massage. I am grateful for the education I began and received at the Northwest School of Animal Massage. I look forward to the coninuation of this journey."
Andrew is married to Sarah Scott, and they live with old Poncho (b 1994), young pup Olive (b 2011), and cats Steve and Charlie (b 2007). Hobo passed on in 2009 (b 1997).
