I have a lot of experience with all kinds of dogs and have taken care of dogs since I was 10. I have 20 years of pet care experience and sincerely love dogs. From a young age knew a lot about caring for the needs of dogs. I have experience with dogs that are in need of extra attention or general care. I am Native NYer with a dependable track record and come well-recommended within the dog walking community. My schedule is reliable, and I remain flexible but punctual. I am enthusiastic and energetic, youthfully athletic, intellectually sound, Pratt Institue BFA graduate of 2020 BFA & five-star dog sitter whose accommodating to the unique needs of your pet. I grew up in a veterinarian household in Denmark, while raised equally between Harlem, Brooklyn and Denmark. I have 5 years of Vet Tech training I received from my aunt, a rabbit specialist and veterinarian. She would bring me with her on site because since I was a little girl I’ve always been drawn to the sentient nature of animals and the wisdom they possess, and that was clear in how naturally I engaged with all bug and animals around me. Working with her as a child ignited my interest in the health and care of all animals. I gladly assisted with cleaning her client’s dog’s teeth. I found teeth cleaning enjoyable, the sense of precision. Like the specific way of cleaning a horses hoves, there are correct ways to clean teeth and inject needles. Training in the same vets office where the entirety of Copenhagen’s Zoo receive their treatment from, was an excellent experience. During COVID, after I graduated from Pratt Institue I thought that my career in art had come to a close, and that art could never be profitable again in this pandemic market where Tech and Medical skills seemed to reign supreme. This was surmounted mostly from what I was absorbing from the messages media sold me, of this priority of adaptation that covid imposed onto us all. This forced adaptive, combined with the reshuffling and resorting of our prioritizes as people, who together were trying to survive an invisible sickness while living in a dying planet. I began questioning my essentiality within a workforce that had no interest in my art degree. During this time I had the privilege of fostering a rescue 11 year old feisty fireball of a Chihuahua who brought life into my days for 8 months. He was not bathroom trained and at his old age, refused to go to the bathroom outside so I was forced to maintain his past use of weewee pads. Luckily, at the time for these 8 months I lived in a spacious Williamsburg loft apartment with spare rooms and a tracks worth of indoor running space, and hardwood floors that I was not concerned with issues of clean up, I was both attentive to his routine selected locations for urination, and partially because of the amount of thick protective layering on the hardwood floors. Recently I’ve predominately dog walked and animal sat pets locally for neighbors and Bedstuy clients in need of services while they have returned back to work in person, and I help them navigate this transition, or another common sitting need is for clients whose work requires them to frequently travel. In those cases I have been dog sitting small, medium, and large dogs within my lush-green Bedstuy apartment and tree-lined block, because my neighborhood is filled with dog owners- which increased to an observable amount of pooches per block. This year I have helped train medium and larger dogs during routine walks where the dog needs to learn to not pull their leash. I live in a brownstone with a backyard and front yard and use those for night time bathroom breaks, or walk two blocks to Saratoga Park bustling dog run. I’m not afraid of any bug or animal, and feel most myself in nature. All animals and children seem to flock to me because I have a warm, safe and giving energy. I am dependable sitter you can trust to follow your unique animal’s needs. I have experience with dogs that are in need of extra attention, anxious pets who suffer from anxiety, diabetic cats/dogs who need to receive insulin within a timed schedule, maintaining oral medication routines for pet medications like generalized antibiotics, grooming for cats/dogs, experienced end of life caregiver to elder dogs nursing ailments from aging, as well as general care experience for dogs of all health. I am accommodating to all dietary and health needs of your pet. I live in a 1brd brownstone apartment, alone in the heart of Bedstuy. I offer dog/cat sitting for overnight stays, day boarding, dog walks, pick ups and drop offs, grooming, routine medication management for pets, eye booger cleaning. They should expect lots of cuddles, kisses and attention. I am a friendly neighbor on my block, and a regular at local parks like Herbert Von King, Prospect Park, and Saratoga Park. On an ideal off day while walking a dog I could imagine my route would be picking up that dog, walking them to Saratoga Park, then having them join me for a brownstone stroll to pick up bread from Saranghina Bakery. I am punctual, extremely enthusiastic about meeting new dogs and cats, young, energetic, and the sitter you need.
