Very flexible, love dogs!

Pet care experience

Hey there, fellow dog enthusiasts! I'm Hakeem Rabiu. By day, I'm a Senior Associate at PWC, diving deep into the world of Automation and Business Process Acceleration. I also wear the hat of Director of Sales and Business Development at Martinez Cleaning LLC. But after hours, my passion is spending quality time with our four-legged friends! With an MBA from SUNY Albany and a background in Digital Marketing, I have a knack for understanding needs - be it a business or a playful pup. My student-athlete days taught me the importance of play, discipline, and care. So, rest assured, your furry buddy will be in safe, caring, and fun hands with me. Let's make every doggy day a joyous one!

Thank you so much. Hakeem did a great job taking care of our two dogs!! Great communication when one of our dogs was experiencing upset stomach. Very flexible with drop off and pups were exhausted when they came home. We highly recommend him!

Information Hakeem R. would like to know about your pet

It's essential for me to know any specific dietary restrictions, medications, behavioral triggers, or special needs your dog might have. Additionally, understanding their social comfort with other animals and any particular habits or routines they follow would be beneficial. This ensures a tailored care experience for every pet.

A typical day

A typical day starts with a morning walk to a nearby park, followed by a hearty breakfast. Playtime includes fetch, tug-of-war, and puzzle toys. Afternoon strolls are leisurely, exploring new trails or revisiting favorite spots. Evenings are for relaxation, with some cuddle time and perhaps a treat or two. I love exploring different trails and parks in the area, ensuring variety and excitement for the dogs I watch.
