About: I only accept 1 dog per visit, unless they’re from the same family. The pets I watch are never left in a crate, unless owner is crate training and needs me to stick to a certain schedule etc... I am fully dedicated and attentive to your pet. I am working remotely at the moment so I have a very flexible schedule. Private and Safe Care! My policy is 1 dog per day unless the dogs are from the same family and already know each other well is the only exception to this. Happy to schedule a meet & greet initially! -Large fully secured fenced yard. Will walk leash as well if requested. I am taking advantage of any time off to care for your pets! It seems many folks are vacation planning so it has been busy and I’m booking ahead right now. Secure your dates ASAP! For many years my travel/work schedule has not allowed me to have a pet, so Rover has been a great way for me to incorporate this back into my life. .

About: I am recently retired NYPD Detective who has had dogs all 45 years of my life. My Frenchie recently passed and I am looking to do some dog walking and/or sitting. My last few rescue dogs all had a variety of health problems including surgery to remove my Frenchies ear canal rendering him deaf, my Boston Terrier had severe allergies, his dermatologist taught me how to administer immunotherapy shots to him, as well as two of my boxers becoming geriatric and cancer-ridden. So I do have some experience with sickly dogs. Large and small breeds are all fine with me. I do have three younger children all in school during the day so walking or spending time with dogs during the day is something I am seeking. I would also take dogs for sitting, long or short term as long as they are good with children. I would only take one dog/dog family at a time to ensure your dog(s) are treated as family members. I have a fenced in yard, and I have no restrictions on your dogs unless you have those restrictions at your home, ie. no furniture etc. Being a retired detective you can trust me to your home without any worry of theft, as a member of law enforcement for the past 20 years, I value law and abiding the law tot he fullest extent.

“Giovanna was great! Came over before the scheduled time to get to know our dogs and make sure everyone was comfortable. Kept us informed with pictures and updates. Highly recommend!”


“Theresa was the perfect sitter for our Amber. She was extremely communicative, always prompt and went the extra mile especially during the 4th of July weekend where our dog doesn't enjoy the fireworks shows in the neighborhood. We could tell that she truly loves taking care of dogs and we would recommend her services to all family and friends.”

The care he gives them is truly the sweetest thing to see. My dogs are my babies. They are family. I know it sounds crazy but I have fired other caregivers because they just made no connection with my pets. Nelson took the time to meet them and understand them. He is aware of their medical issues and always will alert me if he feels something is not right. I have used Nelson when I can’t get home in time for a walk, and I have also used him to watch them when I went away for several days. I cannot recommend Nelson Sanchez enough!
