Pet care experience

Your dogs new other best friend!

I have over 15 years of pet experience (5 years professional pet care) and am a responsible animal lover. I grew up with pets and love all breeds. I am a big advocate for the bully breeds but love anything with four legs! I have experience as a private dog walker in NY state, typically walking in packs. From the high energy pups to the calmer, more reserved types, I’ve never met a dog that didn’t melt my heart. I love sending pictures and updates to parents! I am comfortable with walking larger breeds and have always found it easy to meet new types of personalities and adapt. New adoptees included! I genuinely love all animals and cannot wait to meet yours!

Chelsea took great care of my two pups and gave me tons of updates while I was away. She was easy to work with and reliable. She even helped with a few things like bringing in packages and the trash can. She won my dogs over and I’m sure we’ll use her again.

Schedule

I recently accepted a full-time position which will keep me out of the house about 7-8 hours during the weekdays M-F. Friday I am available beginning 4:30/5pm. If your pet is used to being crated or is home alone while you’re at work for a similar amount of time, I’d be a good fit for a sitter. During the weekends I don’t often book more than one other walk if I’m housesitting. That way I can spend more time with your animal in their environment. Weekends I’m open on short notice for drop-ins, walks or stays. If you prefer me to not stay overnight I am open to that as well. Please let me know. **Please Note** Dogs that cannot be left alone for 4 hours of more, will be subjected to slightly higher rates for constant care. These start at $100 and can go to $125 depending on time of year. I have clients to accommodate during most weekends and weekdays intermittently and can be gone for up to 3-5 hours at a time.

If your dog has any special walking habits or preferences such as: avoiding other dogs, people, or squirrels. Which type of leash or collar you would like me to use on walks if you have more than one type.
