Pet care experience

The Sweeter Sitter

As an animal lover for my entire life, and with this being the first time not owning a pet, I look forward to being able to share my love for animals with you and your beloved pet!! I grew up with one Boston Terrier, and then later two Bostons, in my home and was constantly surrounded by the dogs of extended family members, close friends, and neighbors. Because of this I have experience with many dog breeds and many personalities and ages! I have 17 plus years experience caring for the well loved pets of others and understanding the spoken and unspoken needs of dogs! I have a very calm demeanor and, more than simply walking and feeding, love to spend time playing and getting to know your pets individual personalities! Quality care and safety of your pet is of the utmost importance for me and I will do everything in my power to ensure that your family member has the best stay-cation possible! :)

Isabella was really great! Quick response and communicated updates throughout Brady’s stay. Brady can be anxious in new surroundings but it was clear he quickly became very comfortable with Isabella. Will definitely have Brady stay with her again

Isabella was fantastic, when I picked up my pups they seemed well taken care for and even a little sad to say goodbye! My goal has always been to find a sitter that loves my dogs like their own. Isabella was a perfect fit and we look forward to booking with her whenever we need a sitter. Couldn’t recommend her enough.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a third floor walk up, with a balcony. Dogs always have supervised balcony time (or can be not let on to the balcony if there are concerns!). I am always attentive of your pet, and any shifts in behavior that seem strange will be monitored and reported to you if necessary! I am always mindful of how other dogs are interacting with others and of the environment in order to ensure your pet is safe, and you are stress and worry free, during their stay!

A typical day

There are many small parks near my building, which I am happy to either go to frequently or avoid entirely based on your personal preferences! I also live a quick walk to Central Park (so much space to play fetch!!!!) and to the East River, offering a space for your pet to get out and explore nature more with all of its smells, sights, and sounds!

I need to know about your dogs temperament in new spaces if you have experience with this (for example, do they often pee/mark when nervous or in new territory? Will they chew on things? A nervous barker?) which does not mean I won't accept your dog, simply questions that I have before hand. Then of course I would LOVE to know all of the sorts of things that your pet loves to do, special treats or certain activities that make them feel the happiest and the most comfortable! I don't have any breed preferences but I am a sucker for Boston Terriers and Frenchies!! :)
