In NYC for the past 6 years with exquisite care for multiple pupps, with walking and running experience, and boarding in and out of my own home. I've always loved getting to know a new dog, from their loves, quirks, likes and dislikes. I work across boroughs and frequent Tompkins Square Dog Park, Cooper, Herbert Von King, Gansevoort Slip, Corlears Hook, among others. I'm always happy to match the needs of pets, their owners, and the pecularities of weather, scheduling, happenstance. Can pickup from daycare, transport dogs to the vet, or take them on day hikes in Cold Spring. Very get-along-go-along, but always timely and serious about the wonderful job at hand (paw?).

A typical day

Love a good run with dogs who are up for it, with weather in mind (protecting paws from heat, cold, salt) and plenty of water at hand. Long fetch, tug of war, always come ready with tennis balls from actual tennis courts. Expert at balancing coffee AND leash. You have to see it

Pet care experience

Love dogs and live dogs. I've trained 3 of my own puppies, from potty, to socialization, to running in the city, to hiking upstate. I cared for my poodles, they cared greatly for me, and now I want to watch after your pupper!

George helps Jay with a midday afternoon walk for relief on days we may be later coming home. He was really easy to communicate with and we set up a meet and greet so both him and Jay felt comfortable with each other. He asked all the right questions and made us feel at ease leaving Jay in his care when being walked. He takes amazing photos of Jay and gives a nice update post walk. Highly recommend.

iI was living in Brooklyn for a month with the doggo and Adrian was a massive help. Walked Viggo a few times a week. Consistent. Generous. Kind. He will be missed.

George came through for us at the last minute and -- even better -- was a great date night dog sitter for our very anxious new rescue. Our pup can be reactive and barky and George clearly has experience with this and got on her level immediately. He eventually got her to play chase with him and be on his lap! We're super happy to have found George.
