Brooklyn Born and Raised Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I just graduated NYU for Drama, so working with dogs was a no brainer for my schedule. I'm athletic, love to walk and know the city super well, being from here. I'm willing to work with you to do whatever it takes to make your experience as good as it can be. I've sadly never been able to own a dog of my own (yet; my parents were allergic) but it's up there with my top goals in life! When you see me with your dog you'll see what a dog person really looks like :) I get along with every dog so well. I feel like I can tell what a dog is thinking--definitely more than people! I love animals and the day I heard the expression "A dog is man's {or woman's} best friend,” it was like a light bulb went off in my head. Ah! That makes so much sense. I just love to spend time with dogs! Not only do I get to be around furry friends all day, it allows me to help out my community by helping owners have some peace of mind knowing that their best friend is in good hands while they’re away. My schedule is super flexible right now. I only have a couple recurring commitments as of now, and even they can be moved around if needed. Given my flexibility, I’m a good match for pups that are used to having a human presence around them, and a good match for owners that tend to have last-minute changes in their schedule. I love meet and greets. I think they're a great way to become acclimated with your pup and make sure we’re a good fit for one another. Especially when it comes to putting someone else in charge of such an important part of the family, you want to make sure the person there can make fast friends with your pooch! I don't really have breed preferences except I'd prefer dogs that were well trained.

My dog pip was very happy and calm after being with Jonah for the weekend! He was very considerate and I was very confident he was in good hands?

Jonah was wonderful! He was extremely communicative and prompt for all of our meetings. He was so patient with my shy dog. And he took great care of our home while he stayed here, it was wonderful coming back to a clean house. I highly recommend Jonah!

Jonah did a great job caring for our tiny Jumbo and our home while we were away. He did an even better job dealing with my uncontrollable panic for having to leave her for the first time!! He was extra kind and sensitive to MY needs ??‍♀️. He’s very smart, very caring and an all around good guy. Very easy to communicate with and super understanding when it came to my anxieties. I hope he doesn’t get saddled with all the nervous mommies like me!! But really, he was great and Jumbo looked clean and cared for when we returned home and so did our house. Thank you Jonah!!

Information Jonah N. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? What’s your preferred method of communication? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?

A typical day

I think that one of the best ways to keep happy and healthy is by staying very active, so I love to get out and explore. And there’s nothing better than having a canine co-pilot alongside for the ride! I have so many favorite spots in the city that are perfect for exploration. Even though New York is definitely not known for its nature, I love to seek out the greenery wherever I am. I love Central and Prospect Parks, Washington Square, Hudson River Park, Brooklyn Bridge Park, you name it! If we find a "trail" in the city I'm all for it! I'm always down for an urban hike. I love to walk around the city.

I love taking care of and hanging out with animals—it’s the perfect compliment to my life (and animals seem to like me too) so I’m always able to make room for your precious baby.
