Experienced animal rescue worker!
Pet care experience
I've worked in animal welfare for rescues for about 6 years in shelters and rescues in NYC. I am also currently enrolled in Vet Tech school. I've fostered and taken care of countless animals, many with specific medical conditions. I've dealt with very hard to handle dogs. I'll walk your dog as much as I walk mine! At least 4 times a day which is easy for me because I work from home! I'm happy to do sitting, drop in visits or boarding for cats, and dogs! If your cat wants to be separate from mine, I have plenty of space to do so. The most your dog would be left is for a few hours. I have crates available if needed. My dog loves company and I have two cats who like dogs as much as I do! Though if your pup would prefer no cats, I have plenty of space to keep the cats behind closed doors. Happy to medicate and/or work with your dog on specific issues if needed. Located in Brooklyn near Prospect Park and happy to take your dog to the park if you're comfortable with that! On leash, only of course. Don't worry, I supervise like a hawk... I also would not take them to a dog park unless you specify you'd like me to. I will walk your dog separately from my own, unless your dog enjoys a buddy on walks and you specify this to me ahead of time. Currently working part time from home! So there will always be supervision of your pet. Plus lots of playtime, of course. Which is the best part. I have a fenced in garden area where your pup can run around off leash either alone or with my dog. Whichever you prefer is fine!
Reviews
My dog got plenty of play time and attention, and came back happy and healthy.
Lucy is the best! So happy we found her! She’s very sweet and asked us all the right questions before we went away. We have a cat who is 15 yrs old and been in and out of the vet- Lucy was communicative and made sure our cat was eating and even administered medication! Honestly I don’t know how she did it since she can be feisty (have scars to show it!) but when we came back she looked better than when we left her! She also took great care of our 2 yrs old rescue pup who is sweet but very shy. She made sure he was eating and sent me updated pics of him during walks etc. You can tell Lucy loves animal and does it with great care and it’s a huge plus that she has great knowledge in taking care of furry creatures! I will definitely book her again!
Misha loved his day with Lucy! Thanks for taking such great care of him!
Lucy is amazing! She's kind, caring, and trustworthy. She knows how to care for cats with health issues including giving medication and sub-q fluids. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Information Lucy B. would like to know about your pet
Is your dog okay with cats? If not, I have the ability to keep them separate or do a slow introduction if you'd like them to be introduced to cats.
A typical day
We love to walk to Prospect Park the morning! The trails are our favorite. We also usually walk on Eastern Parkway. I don't use my phone while actively walking so I'm paying complete attention to your pup.
