Hi there. My name is Greg. I don't currently own any pets but I am a definite dog lover. Most of my youth is filled with memories of my Collie/German Shep mix named Freckles. She was gentle and loving and the best pal I could have had. We had her for 16 years and I still miss her. If your dog loves attention, and getting the chance to go for a nice walk outside, I'm your guy. I live about 2 miles from Prospect Park and, as a frequent runner, exploring the neighborhood and being outside is what I do most on the weekend. I am definitely happy to be with dogs who enjoy being outside on longer walks as much as I do. As for my current services, I offer dog sitting in your home or my home, as well as dog walking and drop in visits. Please note: for dog boarding, my building doesn't allow dogs larger than 25 lbs or so, however I would watch a dog of any size if house sitting in your home. Also, during the week I am working back in the office, so I could be away from your pup during the workday. I will discuss with you in advance timing to ensure your dogs's needs as you advise them are completely met. At nights and weekends, your dog wouldn't be alone for any more than just a few hours. Lastly, I am free to talk about any questions or concerns you may have. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your dog!

Greg was fantastic with Liam and Josephine! He took great care of both pups, fed them on schedule, and took them for evening walks Saturday and Sunday. He was attentive to Josephine’s care needs and handled Liam’s reactivity with patience. Would absolutely book him again. Highly recommend!

Great was phenomenal! He is extremely communicative and understanding of our dog’s needs. We have a 60lb anxious, reactive mutt who is not the easiest to walk and take care of, but Greg was great with him. We also had some apartments issues that had to be fixed while we were away and he was very accommodating and understanding when having to take time out of his day to deal with it. Our apartment was cleaner than when we left it and I could tell Koby was well taken care of when we get home. Highly recommend!

Greg was seriously a life saver. I have never used Rover or a dogsitter in the past and have usually relied on my partner or close friend to watch my boys. But given I had recently moved to NYC and was going out of the country for work, I had little choice. Greg far exceeded all my expectations and took so much worry off my shoulders. He not only perfectly watched my 2 senior dogs, but he was communicative, sent pictures and updates, asked questions when one had separation anxiety and overall was just a complete life saver. I will 100% book Greg again and would recommend him to care for anyone’s beloved pet(s). I am beyond thankful!

We used Greg recently to watch our dog, Marshall. We chose him based on his reviews and profile. To start set up a video call to chat beforehand and knew from there we wanted him to watch Marshall. Greg came and stayed at our place. He left the apartment clean and in great shape. He sent us a recap of the day each night with plenty of pics. We plan to use Greg again soon! He is fantastic!

Greg is exceptional—truly above and beyond, even among 5-star sitters. He has been caring for our dog Frankie for several years, and his attentiveness and thoughtfulness extend not only to Frankie but also to our home, giving us complete peace of mind. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Schedule

For my schedule: I am currently working remote so your dog would get a lot of daily attention. Morning walks before work, walks around lunch and dinner time are not a problem. Weekends are chill and would be more of the same environment, I may occasionally need to go into the office in the city - but that would be discussed with you in advance .

Safety, trust & environment

As for my home, I live in a doorman building at the end of a dead end street. My home will always be secured. If staying in your home, your dog would always be in a secure area as well.

A typical day

i love to make a dog feel at ease and relaxed and having a vacation while you are away. Lots of belly rubs, good walks, exploring all the smells in the neighborhood. If you have any new or favorite toys - I will ensure playtime is definitely had.
