Pet care experience
Pet Care & Training is what we do-& we love it. Few things are as nerve wracking as choosing pet care. We strive to deliver peace and calm during this time. We reply quickly to messages and will provide updates as often or as little as you’d like. We personalize our training programs to each and every pup and pup parent! Once we have a meet & greet we can further assess how we can be of the most help! When your four-legged best friend is with us we want them to feel right at home and ease your mind. We are located equidistant to both LGA and JFK Airports (15-20 mins) As for your furry babies-- They will get nothing but love and attention! We will go out multiple times daily and have tons of fun! We have a large backyard to play in, whether it's fetch or just sun bathing, there is plenty of space for your furry children to flourish! We have safe pathways to walk, large parks and fields nearby and a car to joy ride in if your pup is into that sort of thing :) They will have plenty of room in our two story + basement home in Queens to stretch their paws and all of the soft surfaces to rest their heads on. We have space for large dogs and energetic dogs and quiet spaces for those philosophical thinking types to rest and ponder the animal universe. We also have separate rooms for anxious puppies, where we can have calm time and just relax with 1 on 1 attention. Whatever your pet's need? We will find a way to make it work. This is our life. Caring and training dogs of all ages-so we will be spending a tremendous amount of time with your pets. This is good for young pets that are full of energy as well as the anxious types. We spend most of the day reinforcing training! (as well as cuddling) If your puppy hates his crate we will use positive reinforcement to help them understand it's their safe space. We encourage pet owners with crates, and who want their pets to crate trained to bring their crate. We have 10 years of experience, using positive reinforcement and attention, to help bring over 19 puppies and older dogs into their crates, and see it as their safe haven! If you want to start your dog on the path to crate training, no better time to start than with us! :) Ask us about our training knowledge. We DO NOT crate in our home unless you, the pup parent, indicates that is what you'd like. We prefer our furry pals to have space! We only crate at the owners discretion and only as a training tool. If your puppy has potty accidents in the house, have no fear, we spend all day with them, we watch for the tell tale signs of an impending accident. We set timers overnight for potty breaks to ensure their bladder and stomach are empty. This level of attention will help potty training! We are dedicated to training your pet as if they were our own, with love, positive reinforcement and did we mention, love ;) We will love your pet as if they were ours. We have plenty experience with all types of dogs, having our own best friend, Kratos, a cuddly Teddy Bear (others may say Rottweiler :) for over 8 years and our Lab-Pitt Rescue, Simba, for over 10 years. We do not have pets of our own currently, our furry kids retired with their Uncle down in Sunny Florida. It got too cold up here for their old bones. So your pup will get 100% of our love and attention. In addition to our own, we have cared for over 40 other dogs and cats over the last 8 years. From protective Terriers to energetic Dobermans to cuddly Cane Corsos -- We are confident in taking care of all dogs large and small. We understand every dog has their own personality and we want to know every quirk in your furry baby. Does he/she like using their voice? Do they have a pre bathroom ritual? Do any sounds or sights frighten them? Do they love chasing after mailmen and cats alike lol. We'd love to know. It is our commitment to provide not only a professional and trustworthy pet sitting service but to also build a sense of family so you can put your mind at ease when you're away from your furry children. Communication is key and to put your mind at ease, we can accommodate your level of contact, from Facetime with your pet - to pictures - to telephone check in's. We will send you plenty of photos! We want to make booking a pet trainer the easiest thing on your to-do list. Let us know how we can help. We can't wait to meet you! Both of us are home Full time. So pet care is our daily routine! We have everything delivered so we honestly spend 24/7 with your precious babies. We wake up early and do a feed and let out back. Then we go to the park and walk or toss ball. Then dinner and a night time walk around the neighborhood. I have a fenced-in backyard. A sheltered back porch area that can be enclosed. And multiple baby gates throughout the house to prevent any escape attempts lol. Safety is our biggest concern when caring for your pets. We will never leave your pet. They come everywhere with us. Unless your pup is physically unable to make the trip, then we would schedule our days with your dog's needs in mind. We take safety very seriously. Every room in our home has a pet gate. We have 100% fenced back yard. A large gated patio. For pup washes we have a walk in shower to make slips and falls less likely. Plus its easy on the joints
Reviews
Karise & William H. cancelled a booking 4 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Wonderful sitters! Appam, our shepherd, loves them. She goes on walks, learns how to walk on the leash and how to interact with other pets. They give us great and detailed feedback and tips on how she’s doing. We never have to worry about leaving her! Highly recommend!
Wonderful sitters who are so careful and loving with our dog.
William and Karise are wonderful! They are so reliable and loving with our dog. They were also so helpful when I needed a dog sitter last minute. Best dog sitters around!

Home
Information Karise & William H. would like to know about your pet
It would be helpful to know what makes your dog nervous. Is your dog anxious? How bad is his/her separation anxiety? Is he/she an Alpha or part of the pack? If you use another language for commands, tell us, we’d love to keep their training going! Do they need their own space? Are they food bowl aggressive? We want to know your animal inside and out. We do not have breed preferences. We love them in all sizes. But it is key for you to tell us everything. I understand some things might be embarrassing but the more we know, the better our care for them will be. Also, anxious dogs can create unsafe situations, so for your pet’s safety, we need to know what makes them tick :)
A typical day
We wake up eat, then potty break before play time inside while we eat and read/work. Then onto our long walk! If weather permits then we head to the park to take a nature hike. We have Cunningham park 6 mins away and it is massive. They will get a nice, scenic, tiring walk, large fields to play catch in, and the beautiful breeze on the way home.
