Information Junaid A. would like to know about your pet

1. How often and how much food does your pup need? 2. What are their sleeping preferences at night? (Dog bed, crate, couch) 3. How much exercise does your pup need to be happy? 4. Does your dog need any medication? 5. If you have any detailed instructions for your pet, please share them before confirming the booking so we are on the same page. ‼️Allergies & dietary restrictions We like to give the following as treats/snacks, please let us know if your pup cannot tolerate the following: - dried beef liver - boiled chicken breasts - pumpkin purée - apples & bananas - celery & peas - eggs - goat milk Other things to tell us about: medications, triggers, how do they do on car rides, should they be fed separately, favorite treats, anything you think we should know (ex. Your dog likes to eat grass, your dog is nervous in elevators, can’t be on the subway etc.) Please let us know before booking if your dog needs special care - i.e. long hair breed maintenance

A typical day

Weekdays ?‍??‍? We have over 10 dog parks in my neighborhood within walking distance, but due to the infections going around we have been trying to refrain from using them. We usually walk along the Hoboken pier A park or along the River front. Weekends ☀️ On warmer days we drive to hiking trails. Our favorite is the branch brook park - it’s by a lake and bunch of grass fields to run around. During colder days we like to visit dog cafes in the city.

Pet care experience

My wife and I will be taking care of your dog together. She works from home full time so your pup will never be unattended. I am on a hybrid schedule. We also currently have a 3 year old friendly maltipoo that lives with us. We love taking care of dogs. I have 4 years of experience sitting other people’s pets and my wife has grown up with multiple dogs since childhood. I will treat your baby just like my own. We love giving belly scratches, teaching new tricks with treats, and going on adventures with our dog. Here is our rover code for $20 off JUNAIA40380

Junaid and Tina were amazing watching Hamilton while we were on vacation. They kept us updated every day with frequent pictures and updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Hamilton stay there again

Pepper’s second time staying with Junaid. He always has a great time and comes back well fed and exhausted from all the fun. He also gets along great with their pup Juju! Highly recommend
