Experienced and flexible pet pal!

Pet care experience

I have always loved animals. My experience with them includes having pets throughout my life, working throughout high school at a dog day care center (Walkin' the Dog) in Colorado, and working at an animal sanctuary in Texas with unusual pets, as well as 5+ years on Rover. Plus, I have experience backcountry skiing with dogs (not very helpful in New York City...)

Lyle is fantastic! Communicative, professional and so sweet. I was well assured that my dog was in great hands while I was away. Glad to have her in the neighborhood for the next time I need care for my girl!

Lyle did a great job watching Sully! She’s super sweet and very responsive. She sent me so many pictures and I could see how happy Sully was!

Lyle was great, she reported the outings she made with Max and sent us pictures. Max seems to have enjoyed his time with her.

Safety, trust & environment

I will always see & ask what a specific dog's needs are before working with them. I love fetch, tug of war, and wrestling with dogs who want to do so, but I am also happy to cuddle up on the couch next to a sleepy low energy dog. I've specifically worked for long periods of time with getting anxious dogs to open up to new people.

Information Lyle S. would like to know about your pet

Please tell me your dogs attitude towards people and other dogs while on walks. I would like to know if they have attachment anxiety to adequately gage if I have the time to properly care for them.

A typical day

I can throw the ball for hours for a dog, I can snuggle up, I can walk dogs who don't care for affection, and take them to the dog park. Definitely some good ear and back scratches are in the calendar.

I work 9-5, but am flexible with being able to get out of the office and take a walk during lunch if your pup is on the Upper West Side. Before 9 and after 5 I am free for walks and sitting!
