Flexible Schedule - Dog Lover!

Pet care experience

My fiance, Tom, and I live in a 700 sq ft apartment in Brooklyn Heights, 2 blocks to the promenade, close to the park and Hillside Dog Park. I am a dog lover with 16 years experience caring for dogs, large and small. I’ve had 2 yellow labs of my own, so I’m used to high energy, loveable and playful dogs. During this time, I’ve had experience with their health issues too- a broken toe (bandaged and cones on head), cancer treatments (special eating requirements, drug administration), swallowing of objects, etc. I’ve cared for family and friends’ dogs for years as well- feeding, walking, running, playing, transporting, etc. I work full time but have a flexible schedule to care for your pup! Any day of the week, and available for pop in day time visits if planned ahead. Whatever is desired for your pup, I will be happy to oblige and offer the best care.

Kate was a great dog sitter. Reliable, flexible, communicative, and responded quickly to notes and messages. She also took the time out to take Metta to the dog park, which was awesome. Thanks for the great weekend!

The stay was excellent. He came back happy and ready for a long nap. He was very well taken care of. Great TLC and great attention to details.

Kate’s obvious love of dogs made leaving my dog, Dale, with her for a long weekend an easy decision. She sent photo updates throughout the weekend and was accommodating with pick up/drop off time based on my traveling schedule. Will definitely use her again to watch Dale!

We went through several dog sitters until we found Kate. Buddy required special attention to his dietary needs and Kate followed our detailed instructions including his need for regular exercise. She and Buddy bonded almost immediately (which releaved our anxiety) given her kind and loving nature. Definitely will be calling Kate in the future !
