I live in a sunny, clean and dog-friendly apartment on the border of Kips Bay/Murray Hill and live close to the Madison Square Park dog park. Given that I like to keep my apartment nice and clean for your dog during their stay, I wipe down/wash all paws for every dog that I sit after walks as well as baths if needed. I am a responsible, non-smoker and former dog-owner/current dog lover. I currently do not own a dog, but I grew up taking care of and training my family's maltese. Your dog will have lots of room and will be given lots of walks and love. I am happy to give your dog as much exercise and attention as he/she is used to. As it is important for the parents to know how their dog is doing, I keep them updated on their activities via photos/videos/emails. I prefer to dogsit small to medium sized dogs so your dog has plenty of space to run around and play and typically I generally only watch one dog (or a pair of family dogs) at a time in order to ensure your dog receives the proper amount of attention. Please consider me for your dog's next staycation!
