A typical day

I love running with dogs. Trying to run as fast as you can with a dog is an amazing rush. Big fan of fetch and I vibe with a dogs curious energy as they find wonder in the nooks and crannies of streets and parks.

Pet care experience

Hello, I have experience dog sitting for friends and family. My childhood German Shephard instilled in me a love of all canine creatures that I carry with me to this day. I would love to chat with you and help you with what you and your dog needs and wants. Proud caretake of a black cat, originally my grandmothers that she can't take care of anymore due to a stroke. All animals are deserving of a friendly face who they feel is there to love and help them! I live on Long Island but also work in Roosevelt Island in NYC. I'm willing to serve dogs in both communities. I want to help out with animals because I truly love and cherish them. Thanks for reading!

I would highly recommend Christopher to anyone looking for dog walking services. He is punctual and communicates with us daily. My dog loves him and he knows how to handle my puppy.
