Pet care experience

Responsible, dog-loving UWS couple!

We're both dog lovers to the core. Allie grew up with a cockapoo who was around for a heart-warming 15 years! Chuck didn't grow up with a pet but loves dogs just the same. We both light up whenever we see dogs and luckily dogs feel the same way about us! We're mindful of feeding schedules, grooming and hygiene, training, and most importantly, their emotional well-being. We firmly believe that walks are for the benefit of the dog, not the human, and they should be able to check their "pee-mail", as we call it, and smell to their heart's content. If there are any specific requests or needs, please let us know! As two tried and true service industry folks, we pride ourselves on being very accommodating.

Maple had another great stay! She’s always excited to see Allie when we drop her off. Love getting pictures and updates from Allie during Maple’s vacation. We are very grateful!

My dog, Franklin, had a terrific time with Allie and Chuck. I received photos and updates and he received walks, playtime, meals and tons of attention. Highly recommend and I will most definitely rebook with complete confidence.

Allie was amazing and so sweet with my older dog. She sent tons of pictures and kept me updated on how he was doing.

Allie and Chuck were so wonderful with our dog Ziggy. They were communicative and Ziggy came back clearly happy and sleepy after a great few days. Thanks again!

Schedule

At least one of us is always based at home during services and we only sit one family at a time so we're able to promise that your beloved pup will be our sole focus while we're watching them. We value active and attentive engagement with our pup pals—from snuggles and pets to fetch or "Find it!" sniffing games—but we also understand the value of them getting in a nice, uninterrupted solo snooze.

Safety, trust & environment

We respect the way our clients have set up their homes, including crates, gates, and off-limits spaces and/or furniture. So, while we're fans of cuddling with a pup on the couch, we know that's not the right choice for everyone and will echo your wishes while watching your dog. We prioritize leash safety before leaving our apartment, when walking outside, and when around other dogs.

A typical day

We know it's important to exercise a pup's brain as much as it is their body. We'll be sure to play lots of games—we love playing Find the Treat!—and take them for our signature Sniffaris, where they are encouraged to sniff to their snout's content so they tucker themselves out for the next few hours! We also give each pup lots of encouragement, praise, scratches behind the ears, belly rubs, massages, and snuggles! Lastly, for the safety of your sweet pup, we won't take them to a dog park and/or let them off-leash in Central Park unless you let us know in advance that they will do well. If we have the go ahead to let them off-leash, we practice recall commands in advance to be extra confident. We are always conscious of their body language, especially with the on-leash greetings that are so common in our dog-friendly neighborhood. We aim for a calm environment for your pup to stay in while they're away from you and have successfully cared for many a pet with varying levels of separation anxiety and wee pups just weeks old. If you need a specific schedule or service that you don't see listed, please let us know.

We'd love to know about any behavioral issues, so we can be sure to do our best to support your pup, as well as any tricks or commands they're currently learning that you'd like us to focus on while with them. Additionally, please let us know if they are fed any dog food or treats with turmeric or shellfish in them (Allie is very allergic!).
