Availability

As of April 2026, I have one dog walk around 2 pm - 3pm on Mondays then from Tuesday-Friday, I have 2 dog walks from 2 pm - 5:00 pm. I'm way more available on Saturdays and Sundays. For house-sitting, please let me know at least 2 weeks or 3 in advance, especially if you are in the Bronx or far east Queens (Flushing, Whitestone, Bayside etc.) Due to the long public transportation process, please and thank you. Also, I know it isn't in my "service radius", but feel free to reach out to me even if you live in Downtown Manhattan or Downtown Brooklyn. Thank you once again and take care.

Safety, trust & environment

In a client's home if need be I can provide baths, nail trimmings, brushing, eye care, dental care and comfort them if they are anxious/scared of weather forecast. I can play with them, keep up with their diet, provide any necessary vitamins or medicines and I can provide leisure and calm walks. If granted permission, I can give them speacial dog treats. I'm still learning about cats, but I love cats as well. Maybe one day I can be taught how to walk a cat. I always wanted to.

Information Lenin S. would like to know about your pet

Everything. Literally. What sets them off, what calms them down, routine, any needs, interesting antics, are they good with other dogs, is there a specific breed that triggers them and etc. Tell me everything. I'd like to know so I can make notes to memorize.

A typical day

I love to match their energy weather they excited or pumped up or chilled and relaxed. I can play with their favorite toy wirh them or maybe they love a simple run/jog. I love walking with a dog, though. I usually end up accidentally wandering around with them and it would pass the expected time I wanted, but it is all nice and fair since there is nothing wrong with a good walk.

Loving & learning about animals

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs ever since I was 9 years old and I have loved them ever since. I've taken care 4 dogs of my own with my family which are two pitbulls, 1 boston terrier, and a Maltese. I have voluntarily taken care of a beautiful cute senior chihuahua when I was 18 and I provided her medicines as directed and recently I have taken care of a middle aged boy who is very docile and playful. I provided pictures to the owners and kept them updated on their wellbeing and the environment for an example, when the City of New York was covered in smoke during June 2023 and with upmost care and concern I always ask for more info if I need too. Also, if you have any other animal, then feel free to reach out to me. I may not have much experience with other animals, but I'd love to learn and expand my love and care for other pets/animals like small mammals, reptiles, amphibians fish and birds. About a year or 2 ago, I took care of a bird and a turtle and that was a fun little educational experience. Thank you for reading. Take care!

Lenin did great with our puppy! He arrived on time, was very professional while gathering information on our dog's medical condition, and sent lots of pictures.

Lenin was so attentive and supportive of my new rescue pup, Clyde. He shared frequent updates and creative and persistent efforts to help him eat and take his meds. Lenin also managed to provide walks even during the rainy day. Lenin was also very patient and supportive of my rescue pup’s quirks. Overall a great sitter and dog person who I would highly recommend. Thank you, Lenin!
