About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every size and kind for family friends and neighbors. They have relied on me to bathe, feed, walk, and care for their pets. I am currently working part time and I am available a few days out the week so it varies every week depending when I am needed. I have a 3 year old cockapoo and all she loves to do is play. She’s friendly and introductions matter to dogs so being attentive to the client’s pets reaction to my dog matters most to me.
About: Growing up, we always had two German shepherds so we had two sets of German shepherds at different periods of time. They were great dogs and they required a lot of activity and later on had health issues which required attention. Previously I’ve had an English bulldog which he did have some behavioral and medical issues that I was able to navigate. My mother and my sister’s have a passion of rescuing dogs so in total they have seven dogs. I’m very comfortable with working with animals, especially dogs and cats. I’m willing to work with a dog that might be more temperamental. I also often pet sit for my two friends cats when they are on vacation and have dog sat friends dogs on several occasions. I work from home on Monday, Tuesday, Friday and I am available on weekends. I work in office on Wednesday and Thursday so I have availability based off of work on those days. I am very diligent about pet care, I’ve had my cat for over 10 years now and I have done any and everything I can to ensure she’s healthy and happy and taking care of in any way that she can. Also, I am a licensed social worker and I work for New York City, so I also have a lot of experience in working with people. I’ve also taken a masters level course on the impact of animals on emotional and mental well-being. I have advocated for and written letters for people who need emotional support animals in a professional setting.

She is thoughtful and attentive, and I had peace of mind knowing he was with someone I could trust.
John and Beatrice are a lovely couple who stepped in and helped with taking our Maggie on her dog walks since her regular Dogwalker is away on a trip! They were kind and so reliable!
