Pet care experience

Best dog sitter in NYC!

Nothing brings me more joy than dogs! I took a remote job solely so that I could get a dog of my own (Lottie) and care for her full time with my wife Kelly. I’ve cared for dogs since I was 12 of all different shapes, sizes, breeds and temperaments. I’ve even cared for special needs dogs. I take Rover very seriously. I want to do everything possible to make sure your dog has a wonderful time with me (and my wife Kelly) and that you trust me and hopefully will work with me again in the future. I am happy to meet with you ahead of time before booking to introduce myself and answer any questions. I want this to be like a vacation for your dog. Happy to provide you with photos and videos whenever you’d like. I will take your dog to the dog park or other fun places (if you are ok with it). I can accommodate any sort of feeding / potty / sleep schedules or requirements. I personally would be super anxious to drop my dog off with a stranger, so I want to do whatever I can to take that anxiety away and build a great relationship with you and your dog! + Lottie is super gentle and friendly and has never had an issue with any of the dogs we’ve watched. She either loves them or is neutral, never anything negative. Her Instagram: littlemisslottieloo

I can’t recommend Kevin enough! He was super responsive, friendly, and very capable of handling my dog Sookie while she was on multiple medications! Plus he didn’t have a problem watching Sookie for a bit longer than intended when I got caught in a snowstorm. I’m so so grateful! Sookie had an amazing time playing with Lottie and Kevin took tons of adorable photos too! 😁

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a 1 bedroom apartment with a small balcony that we've set up for dogs to go on if they want to (it's safe). I am within walking range of many parks and dog parks that I can take my dog to.
