“Shirley was great! She was very communicative, walked my two reactive dogs, and even modified the food prep for one of my dog's who decided to be extremely picky! She was professional, prepared, and confident. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again.”


“Maria did a great job walking my dogs. She quickly developed a nice rapport with them, and I know Lucky loved his longer walks to the park, and Harley her short walks.”


“Minju is an excellent dog walker. My Gabriel gets so excited as it nears the time for her to pick him up! He comes back rejuvenated and lots of energy. She does an excellent job for Gabe and myself no worries!”


About: Hello! I've had a deep love of dogs my entire life and was fortunate enough to have had two beautiful dogs over the past 25 years. I love to walk, play and lightly train dogs while they're in my care. I'm also developing healthy dog treats that I share with all the neighbor's dogs for their input (they love them!). I currently volunteer at PAWS NY, which helps humans & dogs, providing walks for the elderly or people that are disabled. I look forward to caring for your dog as my own. They are angels and deserve the best care! I am available to walk or sit dogs 7 days a week! I was recently job-eliminated, working for the past 35+ years in the publishing field, so now my main focus is on dogs, finally! I currently live in an apartment on the 2nd floor which is easily accessible to the outdoors. I also have access to a small fenced in yard in my 3-family home and access to a larger, unfenced yard next door, where my daughter lives. I love to walk and can walk for mile to the nearest large park in Whitestone or Bayside.

“Very gentle and it’s obvious she cares for animals just how slow she walk with him, knowing he’s an older dog have a 14-year-old Shih Tzu. Don’t walk very fast and she just took her time that means a lot to me not to rush him around just to get the work over with. Thank you again Rachel. See you shortly.”


About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life—I’ve cared for all kinds of pets and love every tail wag and sloppy kiss. I’ve walked and watched dogs for friends for years, and now I’m here to give your pup the same love, attention, and fun. Rain or shine, cold or hot—I’m always ready with a leash, treats, and a smile. You can count on me to show up on time, stay prepared, and make your dog’s day I’m currently a student enrolled in an online master’s program, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available to work mornings through evenings, Monday through Friday and Sundays. Saturdays tend to be a bit busier for me, but with advance notice, I’m happy to accommodate requests on that day as well. Your dog’s safety is my top priority on every walk. I always use secure leashes and harnesses,(please let me know if you do not have one in advance, I can provide it), stay alert to our surroundings, and avoid unsafe or overly crowded areas. I never walk dogs off-leash and always follow any instructions you provide. You can trust that your pup will be safe, loved, and well-cared for every step of the way.

“Shang is super responsive, friendly, responsible, and reliable. I needed a walker last minute when my regular ones weren’t available and he really helped me out!! Will definitely use him again!”


About: Hi, I’m Gina — your neighborhood dog-walking buddy! 🐾 I’m here to give your pup the fresh air, exercise, and attention they deserve while you’re busy or away. I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, and I genuinely love spending time outdoors with dogs of all breeds and personalities. Whether your dog is high-energy and needs a brisk walk, or prefers a slower stroll with lots of sniff breaks, I tailor each walk to their pace and comfort. I’m reliable, patient, and always make safety a top priority — on every leash, in every step. I’m available for regular walks or occasional outings, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you know how your furry friend is doing. Let’s make walks the best part of their day (and yours)! I am currently working part-time and will have plenty of time for walks with your furry friend. Dog walking is something I truly enjoy and have intentionally made time for in my daily routine. I love being outside, staying active, and spending time with animals, so fitting in dog walks is a natural and rewarding part of my day. I plan my schedule around my walks to ensure I’m always punctual, focused, and fully present with each dog I care for. Whether it’s a morning energy boost, a midday break, or an evening wind-down, I make sure every walk fits smoothly and reliably into my routine. As a dog walker, I treat every pet like they’re my own — with patience, attentiveness, and care. I always make sure the dog is safely leashed, comfortable, and given plenty of time to sniff, explore, and exercise at their own pace. I bring water for longer walks and keep an eye on weather conditions to ensure their safety and comfort. If I’m entering a client’s home for pick-up or drop-off, I’m extremely respectful of their space. I follow any specific instructions they’ve left, such as wiping paws, locking up, or using a designated entrance. I also make sure food, water, and comfort needs are met if needed, and I always double-check that the home is secure before leaving. Most importantly, I focus on building trust — with the pets and their people — by being consistent, communicative, and kind.

“Eugene was so good with our puppy and made us feel comfortable. He is trustworthy and reliable. He followed all of our instructions and was punctual. Highly recommend and will definitely be reaching out to him again!”


About: I treat every dog as if they were my own—with patience, affection, and plenty of playtime! My experience with both young pups and older dogs means I know how to adapt to their unique personalities and physical needs. Whether your pet needs gentle care, lots of activity, or just some calm companionship, I’ve got it covered. I’m punctual, responsive, and committed to making sure your dog feels safe and loved while you’re away. I work a hybrid schedule, so I'm usually home on Mondays and Fridays, giving me flexibility to care for pets during those days. I’m also free all day Saturday and available Sunday mornings before 12pm. I live in a clean, pet-friendly house with plenty of space for dogs to relax and play. I have a three-year-old Bichon Frise who is super friendly and loves having a companion around—he’s gentle, playful, and gets along well with other dogs. Cleanliness and safety are top priorities in my home. I vacuum every day, mop twice a week, and wipe down counters and chairs weekly to maintain a fresh and hygienic environment.

Unfortunately, my apartment does not allow pets so I cannot have one of my own, but I would be more than happy to care for your pet in your home.

Juliet P.
“Juliet has been an absolute blessing for both me and my 11-year-old black lab mix, Patrick. From the very first time they met, it was clear that there was something special between them—Patrick lights up the moment he sees her, tail wagging wildly as he runs to greet her with the biggest, happiest hello. It brings me such peace knowing he’s in the care of someone he adores and who genuinely adores him right back. Juliet is not only incredibly caring and attentive, but her love for animals shines through in everything she does. She treats Patrick like her own, and that means the world to me. She consistently keeps me updated with messages and photos when she's looking after him, which I deeply appreciate. Working with Juliet has always been an absolute pleasure—she’s reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely one of the kindest people I’ve met. I can't recommend her enough to anyone looking for someone to care for their furry family member.”
