Highlights
Pet care experience
Dependable Animal Lover
I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life. Growing up in a multi-pet household taught me the basics, and today I own both a cat and a Mini Australian Shepherd. I understand firsthand the unique personalities of both cats and dogs, and I’m fully prepared to give your pets the dedicated care, exercise, and attention they deserve while you're away.

Ratings and reviews
Dontae was amazing with Kira. I was abroad and needed someone to take care of her in a pinch and he was very accommodating. He regularly sent updates and made sure Kira was comfortable. His dog seemed to be very chill and got along with Kira. Will definitely book again, thank you again for your help Dontae!
George was so excited to see Dontae again it warmed my heart. He’s so great with him. Will continue to bring him back again!
Dontae was great with George. He was super responsive and sent lots of photos and video. I will definitely have Dontae watch George again. Super kind and loving to my little buddy😊
I am extremely particular about pet care and my dog has a lot of allergies and needs medication administered. Dontae is always extremely good with my pup, and he is the only person I trust to watch him. He always sends lots of photos which makes me feel better when I am traveling as I know my pet is in good hands.

Schedule
Pet care is a primary focus in my weekly routine. Because I manage my own calendar, I can easily dedicate specific blocks of time for drop-in visits, dog walking, or house sitting. I map out my schedule in advance to ensure that every pet in my care gets undivided attention, timely meals, and the right amount of exercise they need.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I treat every pet just like my own. I live in a secure apartment with a doorman on the Upper East Side, which makes for a very safe and controlled environment. I have a cat and a Mini Aussie who are both super pet friendly and love making new companions. Whether I am watching your pet in my home or visiting yours, I prioritize safety above all else, sticking to your specific feeding schedules, managing safe introductions, and keeping a close eye on them at all times. I’ll be sure to send you plenty of updates and pictures throughout the day!
