Your Pups 2nd Best Furiend

Pet care experience

There’s just nothing better than the companionship we get with a dog! They’re such important parts of our lives, and that’s what inspired me to become a dog sitter. I want to make sure that every pup has the love and care they need to thrive! Every pup should feel like they have a friend right there for them, so I’m here to fill that role however possible. Being a dog sitter is also great because it allows me to give back to my community by providing owners in need with a trusted caretaker for their best friends! I have a long history of working with animals, both as an owner and as a volunteer. I have had dogs since I was a baby, and can’t imagine my life without them! Right now, I have a Shih Tzu of my own named Buddy. He’s the happiest dog I’ve ever met and would love to be friends with your dog! I began volunteering with animals locally when I was much younger, and now I’m happy to be a volunteer at Bideawee. It’s a very large pet welfare organization that helps animals and owners have lifelong bonds with one another! I also work with another dog boarding / walking company called Wag . When taking on a new client, I always like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for another, and it’s a great chance to talk face-to-face about the best way to care for your pup! Plus, I just love to meet new animals so that we can become fast friends before taking them under my care. I have no breed preferences, so all dogs are welcome. When your pup is under my care, I’ll make sure that you and your pup feel completely comfortable and well taken care of. For owners, I’ll always keep lines of communication open at all times in case we need to get in touch for any reason. Additionally, I’ll always send daily updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun we’re having together! You can even check out some of the pictures at my dog instagram @nycshihtzus too!

Destiny was late at first and then didn’t respond any of my calls or messages, not to customer support tries as well. She finally responded after 2 hours saying she had to cancel because “something came up”.

Exercise will be a huge part of our time together! I love to get plenty of walks in, so I’m happy to go three to four times a day. We’ll make sure to go to all of the great places together, such as Washington Square Park, Central Park, or even just around the neighborhood! There are also some great dog parks that I would love to bring your pup to (if they like being around new friends). No matter what, we’d definitely have tons of playtime and lots of love!

A typical day

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? What’s your preferred method of communication? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? Is your dog spayed/neutered? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
