Pet care experience

Big love for your big dog 🐾

Hello! My name is Daphne. Since I was a little girl, I have had a huge passion and love for dogs. I have grown up with bully breeds for my entire life. From Rottweilers to Pit bulls, to American Bulldogs. I currently have an Olde English Bulldog who is the princess of our family. I have a huge love for dogs but specifically bully breeds. I understand how strong they are when going for walks and how much love they have to give. I have experience working at a dog kennel in Putnam Valley taking care of multiple dogs at a time, big and small. I also take care of my neighbors 3 black labs when she is away multiple times a year. I also am available to board cat’s inside my home/room. I have watched extended family members cats in my room and am extremely comfortable.

Daphne was great! She is extremely responsive and cordial. We had her walk our furbaby Teddy and she did a great job. We would definitely recommend.

Daphne has watched our dog Ruby many times throughout the years. Daphne is reliable, trustworthy and has a very good way with animals — Ruby adores her. If you are looking for someone to care for your pet, I would highly recommend Daphne.

Daphne is a trustworthy and loyal friend who I have known for many years. Daphne has grown up with dogs her whole life and I have seen firsthand the care and love she gives to her pets. Daphne is responsible and flexible and has walked my dog Bullet a few times when I was out of town. Daphne will go the extra mile to make sure your pet is happy and well cared for. I strongly recommend her to anyone in the area looking for a reliable person to walk their pet.
