Experienced NYC Dog Walker

Pet care experience

Providing a comfortable, safe, and fun bonding experience with your furry family member. I have over six years under my belt working as a New York City dog walker and I love every minute of my job! Every dog under my watch is treated as a member of my family. Nothing beats waking up every day and spending time with animals who truly bring out the best in me. Being an experienced dog walker has tremendously prepared for all types of breeds and mixes. I've learned so much about animals while on the job and my love and care will stand out garenteed. let's set up and meet and greet so I can show you what I'm all about. If you have any questions feel free to reach out!

I recently vacationed in LA for about a week and couldn't bring my Toy Terrier Chi, Tyson with me. Christian was the best fit for my dog so we scheduled to meet at a nearby park. I'd never left Tyson with anyone before but he answered all my questions, asked me anything I may have forgotten, and Tyson liked him so I was confident I made the right choice. He is professional and caring, I cannot say enough great things about him. Christian sent me pictures and updates during my trip which always seemed to come just at the right time. Tyson had a great time, trust me. I can tell. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family.

Christian proved to be kind, dedicated, and extremely invested in our Lolita's well being and happiness during the 5 days she spent with him. We couldn't have asked for a better doggy sitter! We're lucky to have established a relationship with Christian so we can rebook him the next time Lolita needs to be cared for. Our girl had a great time with him--he was responsible, great with updates, attentive, and really took the time to bond with Lolita. We recommend him as a dog companion and caregiver without hesitation!

Looks like Teddy was well taken care of as Christian kept updating us everyday with pictures and his activities. Teddy was sad to leave him when we came to pick him up and was def. a lot cleaner from what state we had left him before. Christian looks genuine and I would highly recommend him to others. Thank you Christian for taking good care of Teddy?

Information Christian R. would like to know about your pet

Through my years of experience I have learned that it is extremely important to have a proper "meet and greet" with any future clients and their pets before being assigned a walk. For some pets, meeting any stranger can he quite scary or intimidating especially if that stranger is entering their home. A proper " meet and greet " safely introduces/teaches the walker exactly what your pets individual needs are as well as any special instructions needing to be discussed. We get to meet and have some real bonding time before any scheduled walks are planned.

A typical day

I find that walking on the street is just fine for any member of my pack but finding an open park or space is better for everybody. NYC pets require a great deal of extra attention due to lack of open space. Being from Long Island I understand the difference in raising a pet in the city verse where I'm from. My walks consist of the best nature and wildlife experience for your pet. Let's gets exercise and fresh air together!
