Pet lover and walker extraordinaire

Pet care experience

I have lived with dogs and cats my whole life and am experienced giving frequent walks, care for elder dogs, and training for puppies. I board pets at my apartment on the Upper West Side (Columbia area) and am available for walks and drop-in visits around the same area. In my home, I'm a firm believer in no pets on the bed, but all other furniture is fair game. I've been walking and caring for my family's dogs ever since I can remember, but only this summer did I start requesting professional pet care work. I'm a Wag! walker and have gained several regular clients over the past three months of summer living. I'm a fan of dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. I'm a pretty tall guy, so big dogs and dogs who like to pull are no problem for me. I have lived with five puppies during the course of my life and am well accustomed to giving them extra potty time and more entertainment!

My experience with Austin was top notch. He went out of his way to make me and my dog-boys comfortable and secure. We were able to see photos of them chillaxing in the living room during the whole stay. His communication was excellent. Judging from the affection Jojo had for him, Austin really has a way with dogs. Great job!

Couldn’t ask for better for our dogs. They adore him, and seems like vice versa. We trust him implicitly and he’s been reliable, responsible and attentive. Recommended without reservations.
