New York Pet Care You Can Trust

Hi! I'm Grace. With a background in high-volume operations and professional pet care, I understand that your dog isn't just a pet—they’re family. Living in the city, I know how important it is to have a walker who is punctual, communicative, and comfortable navigating busy streets and luxury building logistics. I am an active pet owner myself, caring for my own dogs and two rabbits, so I’m well-versed in specialized care and maintaining a routine. Whether it’s a high-energy power walk or a gentle stroll for a senior pup, I’m here to ensure your dog returns home happy and tired!

Grace is absolutely amazing!!! She watched my girl Hazel on one of the 95 degree heat wave days so there really wasn’t anything for her to do to get her energy out since it’s too hot out. Without any prompting, totally of her own volition, Grace played some great “find it” and other indoor enrichment games!! It was so nice and creative of Grace to go above and beyond to provide a safe and fun time for the pup. Already booked her to come back!

Schedule

Caring for your pets is a priority I seamlessly integrate into my daily routine. I organize my schedule to ensure timely visits, allowing for consistent walks, feeding, playtime, and rest periods according to your pet’s specific needs. Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening care, I’m committed to being punctual and fully present during each visit. I plan enough time to give your pets my undivided attention, so they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Because I work exclusively within a manageable radius in Manhattan, I avoid rushing between visits and maintain flexibility for unexpected needs or extended care if required. This thoughtful scheduling approach allows me to deliver reliable, personalized care that keeps your pets happy and healthy throughout the day.

To give your pet the best possible care, I’d love to know: • Any medications, allergies, or health conditions • Favorite toys, routines, or calming tricks • How they respond to strangers, other animals, or new environments Every little detail helps me create a smooth, stress-free experience for both you and your pets!
