Highlights
Pet care experience
Patient, safety focused, punctual
I’m an experienced animal lover who treats every dog like family. I’ve personally lived with Schnauzers, Labradors, Chihuahuas, and Retrievers, and I’ve cared for Yorkies, Dachshunds, Huskies, and Shih Tzus. I’m comfortable with different energy levels and temperaments, I follow your routines exactly, and I keep you in the loop with photo updates. Clean, responsible, and patient. Your dog’s comfort and safety come first. With this experience in mind, I am able to run, walk, carry, jump, skip or swim with dogs. I come from an active household that puts an emphasis on treating dogs like companions that should be appreciated and kept healthy. I live on the edge of Midtown East and UES, meaning I will be able to take a quick train down town or run to the surrounding areas in a quick second. I have experience with anxious, and high energy dogs and am prepared to cater to your dogs specific needs.

Thanks for stopping by and walking Winnie!
Marco took great.care of Sasha. Communication was great as well.
Marco was great with Zoey.
Incredibly professional and easy to work with. Came on time and walked for longer than he had to. On top of that Zuma (my dog) LOVED him. Can't wait for him to come back!

Schedule
I am a writer and arts professional with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my day. I plan my projects around walk blocks and drop-ins, with availability most mornings, middays, and evenings. I keep buffer time between bookings and send prompt photo updates.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s comfort and safety come first. I provide care in your home with one household walks, follow your routines, and start with a quick meet and greet. During visits I clip the leash before doors open, choose calm on leash routes, refresh water, measure meals, wipe paws, tidy up, and double check lights and locks. You receive photo and GPS updates, and I can give oral or topical meds with instructions. I do not host dogs in my home.
Pets
A typical day
We’ll stroll through the park or your favorite route, whatever makes your buddy happiest. I live in a house, so with your okay, we can swing by for a quick yard break and a little fetch. I keep pups leashed for safety and skip off-leash park play, so everything stays fun and worry-free.
