Pet care experience

I adore all breeds of dogs and cats

Hi there! I have been looking after dogs and cats in Hoboken, New Jersey for 5 years now, which I absolutely love! I have had an endearing love for pets since 2001 when my parents finally gave into the many pleas of my two younger brothers and I to get us a dog. We were introduced to Tiki, a magnificent Black Labrador, who became the sister we never had. Taking care of Tiki over the past sixteen years has been nothing but pure joy. I am very patient person, which I believe is a vital quality when caring for dogs and cats. I always look forward to taking care of as many dogs and cats as I can! I can't wait to meet your precious furry family members!

John is incredibly responsive, reliable and flexible! He’s walked my dog consistently for a long time and makes my dog feel comfortable while I’m at work.

I would like to know if the dog has any known triggers such as becoming aggressive around certain dogs and/or people. I also would like to know any unique personality traits a dog might exhibit. I love all breeds.
