Lover of all dogs, big or small!
Pet care experience
If I were a dog, I would be a golden retriever. I enjoy running around and have plenty of energy when I'm outside, under the sun, to keep up with your own furry friend, who I would love to get to know. I grew up caring for my family dogs, an amazing and friendly Shiba Inu named Howie, and an equally amazing, but sometimes curmudgeonly shepherd-terrier mix named Max. I have extensive experience taking Howie and Max for long walks, giving them baths, feeding them treats and supplements needed to keep them healthy, and caring for them when they are sick. I have a degree in psychology, and while most of it was centered around people, I think a lot is applicable to doggos as well. I am a very patient person who understands that each dog has his or her own personality and I love to take the time to get to know each one individually. I just moved back to New York and am excited to start walking dogs again after doing it for several years in San Francisco!
Reviews
Caleb was an excellent dog sitter and we will
Our dog had a great time with Caleb! Would have again!!
Caleb was very patient with my timid dog and took time to let her get used to him before the walk. He was very communicative and timely.
Caleb was great with Deacon! The two seemed to really hit it off and Caleb was great at extending the scheduled walk days for me when I had a last minute change. Deacon would definitely like to have Caleb’s help, again!

Safety, trust & environment
I care for each pet differently depending on their personality and energy level. I think it is important to spend time being patient and getting to know each dog, and meet and greets are great for that! I will typically try to give them lots of love and attention when they are in my care, as well as engage with them by playing with their favorite toys.
Information Caleb P. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any needs, behaviors, or medications that I should account for. I would like to fit as seamlessly into their current routine as possible, as most dogs do best with a structured schedule, so any other specific details about their daily routine would be helpful as well.
A typical day
A typical day would be a long walk in the park in the morning, allowing your dog to engage with all of the sights, sounds, and smells that the park offers them. Ideally, depending on the dog's activity level, we would do two more walks later in the day, early afternoon and evening, as I believe most dogs should get outside at least three times per day, every few hours to potty. And between walks they would get some yummy treats and a big meal or two, according to their needs. In our down time, we would just spend quality time together, and likely there would be some belly rubs.

My schedule is very open currently and I'm looking to prioritize walking and caring for new 🐕 friends. I am living near Bedstuy and am willing to commute most anywhere in Brooklyn, Queens, and parts of lower Manhattan.
