About Christian S.

Safety, trust & environment

In both my home and my clients’ homes, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow any provided routines closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, crate time, or favorite walking routes. I’m attentive to each dog’s specific needs, especially when it comes to things like leash reactivity or separation anxiety, which I’ve personally dealt with and fully understand. My remote work schedule gives me the flexibility to give pets my full attention throughout the day, not just during quick visits or walks.

Information Christian S. would like to know about your pet

If your dog requires any sort of special accommodations, or there are just some little things you want me to know (like that they hate the sound of keys jingling or are scared of a vacuum cleaner!) - just let me know! I’m always happy to accommodate any needs and work with you and your dog to make them comfortable!

A typical day

I love keeping dogs both physically and mentally stimulated throughout the day. That could mean a mix of brisk walks, some fetch in the yard or park, and 10–20 minutes of brain games or puzzle toys to challenge their minds and help them relax. Mental stimulation is a great way to prevent boredom and can be just as tiring (and rewarding!) as a long walk. As a former college varsity distance runner, I’m also more than happy to take high-energy dogs out for a run if they’re up for it — it’s a great way for them to burn off steam and stay fit. Whether it’s playtime, enrichment activities, or just good company, I always tailor the day to what your dog enjoys most.

Pet care experience

📍 Service area includes the Great Neck Peninsula and surrounding areas of Manhasset and Port Washington. ——— ✅ Reliable, Experienced, Ready to Care for Your Pup! 👋🏼 Hi, I’m Christian — a dependable, active dog walker and sitter based in Great Neck, NY. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I’m currently available for new clients! With years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust. I’ve walked everything from Italian Greyhounds to Mastiffs and understand how to handle high-energy pups, leash reactivity, and separation anxiety with calm and care. 🐾 I work fully-remote in legal compliance, which means I have a flexible schedule and can give your dog the attention they need, whether it’s a midday walk, a check-in while you’re at work, or overnight care in your home - my office is wherever my laptop is. 💻 I got my start walking dogs through Wag! as part of the first group of walkers in Boston while studying at Northeastern University. I’ve been a reliable companion to dogs ever since. At home, I live with my fiancé and our labradoodle, Callum — a sweet, goofy 5-year-old who’s taught me a lot about patience, especially when it comes to leash reactivity and anxious pups. 🐕 I’m always happy to do a free meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a great fit. Let’s connect — I’d love to meet you and your dog! 😁

Christian has been wonderful with our dog. He is reliable, responsive, and really cares about providing great service. Our dog always comes back happy and well exercised after their walks. When we’re away, it’s reassuring to have someone reliable that we can trust with our dog, and we really appreciate the regular updates and constant communication throughout the sit. We would absolutely recommend him.

Christian is THE best and is my go-to dog caregiver, walker, etc.. He is always reliable, flexible with scheduling, and the needs of my dog. He is great at communication regarding my pup. I will continue to use him for all my dog caretaking needs!

Christian has been an awesome caregiver to my dog who adores him and always comes home happy and tired after their walks. He’s always been flexible with scheduling and accommodating any last minute changes, and is attentive to my dog’s needs and nuances. Highly recommend his responsible, loving care!
