Hi! I’m a lifelong pet owner with a special talent of bonding with dogs with all sorts of personalities. Growing up with a German Shepherd and Maltese-Poodle mix (along with all the neighborhood dogs!) taught me how to deal with different, sometimes conflicting, personalities and needs of dogs through all life stages. Unfortunately I can’t have a dog in my current apartment, so I’m excited to spend time with your pets! I easily adapt to needs for old/young, shy/energetic, even just an off day. I’m comfortable with special care including medication and cleanup. I am a theater school grad who now teaches middle school students in NYC public schools, so my summer schedule is very flexible for walks in the park, home visits or overnights!
