Personal care for your best friend!

Pet care experience

All dogs are different -- different breeds, shapes, sizes, temperaments. But I love them all! I always look after my friends’ and relatives’ dogs, and of course my husband Ben and I have a pup of our own. I’m home most of the day with my dog, Charlie, a 7 year old 75 pound labradoodle, who also loves dogs. We live in the DUMBO neighborhood in a larger 1- bedroom condo that we bought last year and are two blocks from a dog park that we visit every day. Additionally, our building is very dog friendly, many people here have dogs, and the staff go out of their way to say hello, offer treats, and scratch the four-legged neighbors’ ears. Here's what to expect when you book with me: -Max of 2 dogs besides our resident pup. This is NYC after all, no need for your pup to feel cramped and not get to stretch out indoors! -multiples daily updates, including photos and videos via your preferred method (email, text)! -a detailed report outlining your pups day and night of activities! I work from home with Charlie by my side all day and we'd love to have your dog's company! Because I work from home, I am available for walks and attention all day and any time needed. I have experience providing medicine, taking care of special needs, and am happy to do so from our comfortable home. The highlight of my place is that I live within 3 blocks of Brooklyn Bridge Park and I would love to provide your dog long walks along the backdrop of the river. I am very active and enjoy jogging with your pup if that is something your pup needs or wants! Afterwards, we will go home and relax and rest, all to provide your dog with the best time possible! I also teach and practice yoga -- feel free to make your own downward dog joke -- and have a loving, loyal and responsible personality. I love dogs and dogs love me. Looking after pups is a real pleasure for me, and I will lavish yours with attention! I can't wait to meet you and your pup!

Jessica is amazing! Our dog is a nervous little guy, and she was so patient. She also sent great updates and amazing photos. I cannot recommend her enough!

Information Jessica K. would like to know about your pet

I get along with all sorts of dogs, and love all breeds and sizes. Unfortunately, my building does not allow pitbulls or any dog resembling a pitbull mix or Dobermans and as a result I am unable to watch these breeds of dogs. Anything you can tell me about your dogs temperament, health, and preferences is helpful in providing your dog the best care possible. I have a dog of my own, so it is important to know if our dogs are likely to get along. Is your dog comfortable going to a dog park? There’s one just blocks from my home, and I will take the dogs there if possible. How about treats? Are there snacks that don’t agree with your dog? Does your dog have a special routine, or any dietary or medical needs? I’ll make sure we can text and I can send pictures to you while you’re away so you can be in the loop on your dog’s happiness and well being.

A typical day

During the day we can walk around Brooklyn and visit the dog park. Couch time at the end of the day is the best. Movies for my husband and me, and belly rubs for my dog and your dog. I love when a dog gets excited about learning a new trick, just as much as I love snuggling them. Dogs seem to really enjoy the extra attention and interaction that comes from learning. And of course, just romping outdoors is great, too. I’m an avid photographer, so I will happily take plenty of photos of your dog to keep you updated while you’re apart. Your dog will get plenty of attention and affection during the visit!
