Pet care experience

You can't beat a dog's friendship!

Hey! I'm David. I grew up in San Francisco, went to school in Phoenix, and spent a few years in Austin. I've been living in New York for 10 years and I love it! The city is slowly but surly turning into a dog friendly place and I am about it! I work in broadcasting and have a decent amount of free time when I'm not working so I wanted to make myself useful and make some dogs happy! I live in Brooklyn with my wife and our little mini pincher Nuno. He's a wonderful rescue dog and we love him to death! Dogs have so much love to give and bring nothing but joy, I can't wait for you to trust me with your dogs!

Our dog Koko had the best time staying with David and Marcy this summer! This was our first time boarding Koko with someone other than family but David made it experience completely seamless and reassuringz. We received regular updates about Koko over the week-long period with photos of what she was doing. They were accommodating on any special quirks our dog had as well. Wholeheartedly would recommend boarding with them and will absolutely do so again!

We love David and Marcy , lotus is always so happy and David always comes through for us. We had terrible flight trouble and got stranded and David was so kind and flexible.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a comfortable apartment with a good amount of space for your dog to roam around. I always let them settle in at their own pace. I also have an extra kennel just in case you don’t want to carry yours over.

Pets

A typical day

We have a bunch of toys for your dog to play with or they can just chill out and lounge around, whatever they prefer. Our dog Nuno mostly likes to lounge around, but he can be playful at moments. We will always take your dog out for 3-6 walks a day depending on temperatures and weather. Plus we have a great dog park down the street that we’d love to take them to with your permission.
