Availability

I work remotely in sales, which means there is tons of built-in flexibility to watch, care for, and play with my pup AND yours. Typically, I take 30-min. to 1-hr. long breaks several times throughout the day to ensure my own dog gets all the attention he deserves. Adding a dog to the mix adds to the joy I get from caring for my dog & will only add more excitement to Remy's day. I am available primarily on weekends, but am always willing to be flexible throughout the week depending on the need.

Safety, trust & environment

There are several dog parks around my apartment, as well as outdoor relief areas around the building. Additionally, there is a pet relief & play area in the lower level of my building, so no matter the conditions there is always something for a dog to do. Can easily crate and separate the dogs if needed and/or if they just need some alone time. My girlfriend & I live together, so if separate walks are needed, we can accommodate as well.

Information Alexander D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or preferences in his routine. I’m excited to meet them in the future! Thanks!

A typical day

For high energy dogs I like to go to the park, play fetch (we have an indoor or outdoor area that is private), do puzzles or treat games. For calmer/timid dogs we have a lot of fun activities as well— like chew toys, private areas for walking/playing and more.

Loving & Attentive Dog Owner

Pet care experience

I've grown up with dogs my whole life; from a Border Collie, Dachshund, Poodle, Shih Tszu, Golden Retriever, Bichon Frise, and more! Currently, I have a small (9lb.) 2 year old Cavapoo (Remy) who is super friendly and always eager for a daytime playmate or an overnight friend. I love caring for dogs (my own & friends' dogs included) & taking my pup on long walks in the city with frequent stops at one of the many dog park options near my apartment. Plus my apartment building is dog-friendly and has an indoor play & potty area for those harsh New England weather days - no matter what, there's always something for our furry friends to do! Remy is well-trained & great with all dogs. He receives a healthy mix of playtime, training, patience, and care, and it is my goal to offer the same to your dog. I am attentive to owners instructions, and can provide frequent updates in accordance to your communication preferences. I am flexible to your dogs preferences & style, whether you need high activity (for a younger, high energy dog) or a more relaxed nurturing setting (for an older or more relaxed dog), I am open to any and all requests.
