Information Elva O. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know your dog's breed, age, and activity type. Does he enjoy much exercise, or more of a sedentary type. Since I have small dog, dogs between 1-15 lbs do best with me. Though he has made friends with larger dogs but considering I live in an apartment nothing over 40 lbs.

A typical day

I enjoy taking my dog on walks thru Central Park weather permitting. I also enjoy walks around East side checking out new and interesting outdoor cafe's. I have a pet chihuahua that is 4 years old and we have various chew toys and squeaky toys that he enjoys and I'm sure your pet will as well.

Homemaker Dog Owner, Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I am a homemaker with a small dog named Tony enjoying the paths and parks of Upper East Side. I have cared for dogs since i was a child and when I lived in Texas would often pet sit for friends and family. On weekdays I can start my dog walking activities after 8AM. Of course if providing boarding services I take my dog out for a walk at 6AM. I live 4 blocks from central park for a good walk and there are other parks and paths around me. I am married with two teenage sons so my kids are pretty self sufficient which means more personal attention for your dog. In my apartment I have various toys and activities for small and medium dogs. I do very well with cats as well.
