Dog Walking in Ridgewood, Queens, NY

“Working with Marcos has been a dream! He is very confident and kind with my dog and always gives me the best detailed updates on how their daily walks go. I never have to worry while I’m at work, knowing my pup is in safe hands. I would highly recommend hiring him!”

“Iman watched my dog for a week when I went on vacation last year. I felt so secure knowing that my dog was safe with her. She is so patient, gentle, and loving with animals of all kinds, and my house was super cleanly when I came home. My dog loves her too!! Thanks so much Iman!!!”

“Very sweeg girl, punctual and great communication”

“Joran is super communicative and has been great about working with us to help acclimate our slightly anxious and leash reactive corgi pup to regular dog walking. Its been such a relief to find a dog walker we can trust with our dog and all of his special needs every week. Thank you Joran!”

“Jessica was great and our dog Boba really likes her. She spent some time getting to know her in the beginning and asking questions about her walking behavior. Will definitely be booking again for walks!”

About: I’ve had pets around since I was born. As soon as I was old enough, I was always in charge of simple responsibilities like feeding, walking, and playing with my dogs. The years that I’ve spent growing up around animals has helped me anticipate how they will behave in response to certain interactions. Those experiences have allowed me to adapt to take the best and most comfortable care of every animal I encounter. I’m currently employed at a local establishment, usually working two days per week — Tuesdays and Saturdays. Over my summer break from college, I have free time on the latter 5 days of the week. I really enjoy walking my neighborhood and getting my steps in during those days. Being a dog owner myself, I know how lonely and uncomfortable pets can be cooped up in the house all day during the hot summer months. I’d be more than happy to bring your pets out for a walk with me and give them love for when you arrive home. I will always best accommodate your pet while also respecting the boundaries and instructions given by you. If you have a yard or nearby park, I am willing to walk or play with your pet there as well.

“Lex takes our old pup Roxy on regular dog walks. He's reliable, great at communication and takes wonderful care of her! Would recommend in a heartbeat.”

“Shawn is amazing carer for dogs. She’s been walking my dogs for many years and is always energetic, happy, and responsible. My dogs love her. I’ve also hired Shawn to stay at my house to dogsit when I’ve been on vacation and she’s honestly the only person I’ve trusted to do this. She always takes amazing care of them. My dogs are now older and take a lot of medications. She’s been responsible for giving them medications on time, meeting their needs, feeding them and more. She’s so loving and I always trust that their needs will be met. Seeing how she was able to meet their high energy needs when they were puppies to now when they need more geriatric care, Shawn’s been adaptive and given them the right level of care and exercise. I’d highly recommend her.”

“Rory is communicative, friendly and very accommodating. He gives my dogs plenty of attention and I don't feel I have to worry about anything when he comes to visit. Thanks Rory!”

“Majelia is an amazing caregiver to our pets. She is prompt, caring, and flexible and I know that my dog will be in great hands with her. I often don’t know if I have to be in the office until the day before and Majelia is super flexible with that, which I really appreciate. Highly recommend!”

“Yosvel was fantastic! He played with Karlie and she was so happy and chill in the evening having got to really play during the day. Good communication too. Thank you!”

About: I have over a decade of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I am comfortable with pets of all ages and I have experience caring for multiple elderly dogs (scheduled medications, walks w/ supports, diapers, belly rubs, etc.). I would be happy to take your dog out for a long walk or a bit of a run, and I can also do drop-in visits and home stays as needed (extended daytime visits and overnight visits). I love to cat sit. I have two cats of my own, and I adore cats of all ages and personalities. I can be patient if your kitty takes time to get comfortable. Playtime, snacks, cuddles, brushes, medication, lounging around — whatever you need, I can do with your cat! As an animal lover, I would be thrilled to take care of your pet(s) and make them feel safe and loved while they await your return. I work from home and set my own schedule, so I am extremely flexible. I am happy to fit your schedule and can do long daytime visits as well — just let me know! I have worked in other people’s home as a trusted babysitter for many years, so I am extremely cautious about the safety of your fur baby and your home. My number one priority is to ensure that your pet is safe and cared for, which necessitates a careful watch. Since I have two independent-minded cats at home, I will not be offering my home for services for the betterment of all our pets.

“Hope is beyond patient with my very shy pup, gives incredibly detailed reports, and it’s evident she personally cares for every pet. Thank you Hope!”

“Adeline is awesome. Junco loves her. Good communication.”

“I’m new to hiring a dog walker. But I must say meeting Max and seeing how he is with my 13 yr old dog and his fantastic personality wow!!! I recommend Max to anyone out there who is nervous in hiring a person. He is very friendly, caring and very loyal. Takes the time out to respond to my messages and cares for my dog like it’s his own.!!! Max is 100 percent into his job!! I highly recommend him”

About: I have had dogs ever since I was a baby, and we used to foster dogs as well. I finally got my own fur baby, he is a mini dachshund and would love to be a friend to your fur baby while you’re out of town. I have dog sat for my family friends and professors and love every second of it! I work from home full time, so I have a flexible schedule. Can work things out if you communicate with me in advance of the sit. With my own dogs I’ve made sure to take them out for walks 3 or more times a day, and depending on the breed, love to play frisbee or catch in the yard. And of course, make sure to give them lots of pets and love.

“Sara, THANK YOU for your flexibility in working with me when I hadn’t updated my address.”

“Betty was wonderful! We needed some last-minute help with our dog, Ziggy, and she stepped up and provided excellent care. We are so appreciative and will definitely book with her again. Thank you, Betty!”
