Pet care experience

Walks, Snuggles & Happy Tails!!!!

Hi, I’m Finley! I’m a student here in New York, but I’m originally from Iowa and have been around dogs my whole life. At home, we have three Labradors, one is 13! I grew up training and caring for. More recently, my boyfriend and I rescued an Australian Shepherd mix who’s now 9 months old, and I’ve loved working with her through puppy training all summer! Since I don’t have any dogs with me in New York, I’d be so happy to share that same love and care with your pup. Why I’d Love to Care for Your Pet • Over 15 years of experience with dogs, from puppies to seniors. • Hands on training experience with both energetic and older dogs. • Active lifestyle with plenty of walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures. • Big fan of dog snuggles and quality downtime, too. • Flexible schedule to give your pet attention and care when they need it. (I’m mainly an online student so I have plenty of free time to watch your pup!) I miss my own pup at home so much, which is why I’d love the chance to take care of yours. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and treat them like one of my own.

Doggy Day Care • Sep 23, 2026

Finley was great with Gigi, booked quickly when I was on a time crunch for work. Sent updates and you can tell really enjoys taking care of them. Gigi seemed to enjoy his hang, sometimes he can get a bit overstimulated around new people but she did great handling and could tell he was at ease when I picked him up, definitely would use again!

Finley was amazing! This was my first time leaving Milo with a sitter and she made it so easy. She sent me pictures every day and made sure to stick to his routine. I will 100% be using her again!

Doggy Day Care • Oct 25, 2024

Finley was great! She kept me updated throughout the day on Henry’s status and sent lots of pictures. Henry is a more shy dog and he warmed up to her really quickly and was so excited to see her on the second day. She was very flexible and accommodating and I will definitely be booking with Finley again!

Finley took great care of my dog again and was able to squeeze us in fairly last minute! Would definitely recommend:)

Finley watched our 6mo old lab for the weekend on super short notice. She was awesome - our pup had a great time, going on long walks and play sessions with Finley :)
