Highlights
Pet care experience
Your dog's next best bud
I’ve been caring for pets my whole life. They’ve all been different but each always brings that same kind of special joy. In recent years, my wife and I have fostered and adopted a few challenging pups in need. We lost a very special rescue named Nola in July 2024. These kinds of experiences taught us a lot and reinforced that we want to keep being of service to our beloved dog community. I work from home so will be able to spend plenty of quality time with your dog(s). My wife works in NYC but is always elated to pitch in whenever she’s home. And our 3 year-old Ada loves her some doggies—she’s really good with them. Let’s see…I’d say we’re attentive, responsive, patient, and loving. You can rest assured your dog is safe and comfortable with us, Our home is very clean and pet-friendly. There is a large shared yard at our apartment complex with many other dogs around. Several dog parks nearby, and just 5 minutes away from the local vet. I'm very flexible with my services and availability, so please reach out to talk about your needs and see if we'd be a good fit. Thanks for your consideration!

Calendar and availability
Schedule
Work from home 100% of time. Up early to get daughter to school and wife to train. Time for plenty of walks and quality time all day long. Occasionally leave for meetings, gym, etc. But very much a home-body these days.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with a big shared yard and beach access to LI Sound. We’ll set your dog up nicely in our bedroom and make sure he feels at home.
A typical day
We’ll start the day with a nice walk, breakfast and plenty of water. While I work I can put on some soothing dog music for them to relax to. We’ll take frequent walks because I need work breaks. Can go to beach or park. Daughter gets home at 4 and will want to play some. We wind down early here, starting around 7pm and usually everyone’s asleep by 9.
