“Tayla took excellent care of our cats while we were traveling. She was very attentive, followed instructions we sent, communicated promptly, and sent us daily photo updates, which gave us great peace of mind. She also spent time playing with them, and both of our cats absolutely loved her. Even our usually shy cat, to our surprise, was waiting by the door for her every day! We highly recommend her and would definitely book her again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little, whether it be at my uncle’s farm or mom’s apartment. I have looked after a central asian sheperd and cocker. I am working part-time in the morning so have time in the evenings and weekends! I am available both in brooklyn and manhattan, commuting is not a problem for me! I am currently in a studio apartment and would prefer dog walking and being outdoors playing with dogs in the lovely summer time season. :)
