Dog Walking Astoria-Long Island City

About: I work from home full-time, so your dog gets company and supervision all day: no long stretches alone. My basement-level apartment has a private, fully enclosed outdoor open-sky patio with direct sliding-door access for easy care, play, and sunbathing. I’ve fostered dogs before and share my home with Jasper, my friendly 5-year-old corgi, who loves canine company (we do a meet-and-greet before every booking to make sure everyone’s comfortable). Daily routine includes walks, play sessions, and photo updates so you always know how your pup is doing. Neutered/spayed dogs only, please or we can talk about it in depth before booking. I work from home full-time and go gig work on the side. My work and career are flexible to meet the needs of those who are looking for a treat extra support and care! I can easily adapt to any needs for care. Since I work from home, pups can stay out and about with me all day. We take multiple walks throughout the day around the neighborhood and/or the block which is very dog friendly. Additionally, there is a park within 10 minutes walk and a dog park within 10 minutes walk however we typically will stay on our back patio and do treat dispensing play toys, splash pad days, or general lounging. The patio is where the pups love to explore and lay out on in the sun. It is cleaned off daily and deep cleaned weekly.

“Jayly was great. Very communicative and took good care of our dog for his walk. Jayly also followed instructions for the dog’s particular feeding needs. We’ll definitely contact him again.”

“Arlo loves Jia! They always go to the park and play ball, and she makes sure when he’s home that he is brushed and pampered and given so much love. Thank you Jia!”

“Yuji was a lifesaver! He was able to step in last minute when our regular dog walker couldn't make it. He was very professional and punctual, and our pup seemed to enjoy their walk. We would definitely recommend Yugi and would use his services again.”

About: Growing up with a beloved dog taught me early on how wonderful it is to share our lives with pets. For the past two years, I have built valuable, hands-on experience by occasionally pet-sitting for friends and volunteering regularly at animal shelters. I understand that every dog and cat has a unique personality, and I tailor my care strategies to meet their individual needs. Being naturally patient and highly detail-oriented, I pride myself on providing a safe, structured, and loving environment for every pet under my care. I’m currently working full time on dog & cat sitter, my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m available from 9 AM to 9 PM during the weekdays and weekends. While cat/dog sitting, I treat each pet parent’s home with the same care and respect as if it were my own. I always ensure doors and windows are secure, follow all household instructions carefully, and keep the environment safe and free of hazards for the cats. I’m mindful of potential escape risks and make sure cats/dogs remain safely indoors. Before leaving, I double-check that doors are locked and that the cats/dogs have everything they need, including clean water, food and clean litter boxes.

“Needed a last minute person and she came through, followed instructions, did everything I told her to do, really appreciate her. Thank you for taking care of my baby’s”

About: I'm a very gentle, responsible, and hardworking pet-sitter. I've taken care of dogs and cats of all sorts of sizes and breeds. I currently live with a pet and have lived with pets in the past while taking care of them. I also know basic grooming if you need help with that as well! I mostly stay home from Friday to Monday, so I can provide services over long weekends. I also come home from work around 5pm from Tuesday to Thursday, so I can provide services after 5pm then. I'm physically active, so I can also play with high-energy dogs. I live in a safe neighborhood with a spacious apartment. My roommate has an adorable miniature dachshund, Koko. Koko is extremely well-behaved and well-socialized. If your pet were to stay with me, she/he would be very safe and comfortable.

“Zach took out my very senior fragile doggy out and followed all instructions! Would recommend”

About: I have two cats at home in Michigan who I love dearly and take care of: cleaning litter boxes, feeding, playing, etc. I also grew up with medium-sized dogs, love dogs oh so much, and have experience with their care as well: taking outside, going on walks, feeding, playing, etc. No explicit professional experience, but I can’t wait to gain some!!!! I love animals with every bone in my body :) I am a barista almost full-time and an aspiring actor, so auditions are a heavy part of my schedule. Shorter tasks and small drop-in visits are best for me! I love pets and treat them with so much love and care. There is nothing more special to me than the love of an animal, and I will do anything needed to keep their routine consistent and fun!

“Elizabeth is truly the best. She is always responsive and communicates well, letting me know in detail how each walk goes. I really could not appreciate her more and I know Dobby is in great with Elizabeth.”

Lauren C.

“Meline is fantastic with our mini Aussie! He has so much energy and she matches that, always making us feel super comfortable that blue is safe and protected and having a lot of fun! He absolutely adores her! I’m a Walker as well as a dog mom and I highly recommend Meline!!”
