Very open schedule, LOVES pets!
Pet care experience
I have been taking care of animals since I was 9 years old. I grew up with a boxer and learned quickly the right kind of care that our furry friends need. I have been pet sitting for my neighbors since I was 14. They relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets while they were out of town enjoying vacation. I spent all of 2023 working at a doggy daycare! Everyday, I facilitated, walked, enriched, and loved up to 130 dogs! Animals are a true passion of mine and I would love to meet as many as I can! I am here in New York City as an aspiring actor. When I am between acting jobs, I am here in the city and love to spend my days walking and caring for dogs! I work as a server in a restaurant at night time a few day a week, but have plenty of flexibility during the days to care for your pup! Keeping your pet safe is my first priority! While on walks, I will always use a leash and keep it fully secure. I have walked dogs in the city and around parks in the area, and know how to navigate different environments to ensure your pets safety. During drop-ins, I will always make sure they are crated or kept in their designated area when I leave if that is how they are kept during the day.
Reviews
Danny is a wonderful human - reliable, dependable, friendly and smart! He worked as a pen attendant and enrichment coordinator here at Crate Escape, a dog daycare that takes about 120-130 dogs each day. He learned important behavioral skills with the dogs as well as managing a pen of 15-20 dogs at one time. Danny came into work every day with a smile and positive attitude, he was always willing to help with whatever was asked of him. He worked incredibly well with the other staff and the dogs, everyone was happy to be around him! Danny would an excellent dog walker, your dog would have a wonderful time and be in great hands!
Danny is one of the hardest working people I have ever met and excels in all work given his desire to learn, be efficient, and excellent in all things he does. This combined with his love, respect, and natural affinity for working with animals, I think that Rover and Danny would be a beautiful match. He has a natural ability to communicate with animals and read the non-verbal body language that is so imperative for pet caregivers to have. He has worked at a doggy daycare in the past and quickly excelled there through mutual respect for the practices, animals, animal parents, and his fellow coworkers. I could not think of a better fit.
Danny has looked after my dog many times and he is SO wonderful with her!! She is always so excited to go on walks with him! He’s very trustworthy and so easy to work with. I’m never, ever worried about her when I leave her with him and he’s obviously cares a lot about her.

At my doggy daycare, we provide many activities that provide our dogs with lots of stimulation. I have done enrichment exercises such as obstacle courses, food training, toy time, and small play groups. I also take dogs to many great places to walk and sometimes like to run with them as well!
