Pet care experience

Your dog’s home away from home!

I am a dog-lover who grew up always having a dog in the home (Tyler the golden retriever, Brigus the chocolate lab, and Prescott the boxer). I’m a few years away from dog ownership myself, but I love dog-walking and boarding whenever I can! I would love to walk or hangout with your pup, as it brings me great joy! I also have an account on WAG and have done over 60 walks. I will take great care of your dog and shower him or her with love! I pride myself on being on time, making sure to provide good walks, and providing updates and communications with owners. Looking forward to meeting your precious pup :)

Ellen watched my 2 YO bernedoodle and was excellent. She communicated promptly and was responsive and attentive to Frankie's needs. I would definitely recommend her and will look forward to booking her in the future!

Ellen and Ethan were wonderful! It was our first time booking with them and we are happy with Mia's stay. They were very responsive and sent pictures with updates everyday. Mia looked happy and comfortable in their home and we look forward to using them again in the future!

Lots of walks and love! I have a spacious two bedroom apartment very close to Brooklyn Heights Promenade. I will take your dog there if that is okay with you!

Need to know about their temperament with other dogs, people, and any other triggers. If they are boarding in my home, then I also need to know how often they need bathroom breaks, walks, and meal schedule.
