Pet care experience

Hi there! I am a lifetime dog lover who has helped raise a Chocolate Lab, Toy Poodle, and special needs Boston Terrier. Once I moved to NYC, I became a dog walker, but I'm eager to provide more personal dog care. I am at NYU getting a degree in Anthropology but have plans to apply to veterinarian school, and would love to get more experience closely caring for other's pets. I am also a serious runner and miss running with my sturdy chocolate lab- I could exercise the dog well if requested. My family rescued a heavily abused Boston Terrier who also had a plethora of health problems, and that experience taught me a lot about caring for dogs. First, I got really good at clinical matters such as hiding pills in food along with administering eye drops and shots. But more importantly, he taught me that any dog can be loved and will love you back, as long as you are gentle and take your time with it. There's nothing more rewarding than having a dog trust you and keeping them happy! One final thing that I love about caring for other's dogs is allowing owners to have freedoms of their own, while still providing love and care for their dog- through me! Life is complicated, especially in the city, and I'm available to help keep the owner, and their dog, happy.

Mary (Mimi) has walked and sat my dog on multiple occasions. She's incredibly caring and sweet, and her love of dogs is apparent upon first meeting her. Since she began sitting/walking my dog, I haven't used anybody else. I used to use Wag, but no longer do. Mimi would make an excellent dog sitter for anybody in need. In addition, she leaves the house in excellent condition. In fact, my place looked better after she left than when she came! 5/5.

Information Mary C. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preference (or favorites. I was about to pick a favorite breed but couldn't bring myself to choose!). The few things I'd like to know about a dog is their triggers, when they prefer to eat and what their favorite game or activity is!

A typical day

I love walking along either riverside in this city- a fresh breeze by the water can do anyone good! I am also able to provide lots of options for exercising your dog, whether I am running with them or we're playing fetch together in the park.
