I am an experienced pet owner and have been living alongside animals my whole life. I worked part time for a year as a professional dog walker on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. I have been an owner of dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles, and have pet sat for multiple friends and family members for extended periods of time. I live in a moderately sized apartment with quiet tree lined blocks to walk if boarding here. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds and sizes of both dogs and cats, and a flexible day job allowing me to amend my schedule to your pets needs. I am familiar with how to remove foreign objects from an animals mouth, basic leash training, bathing(cats and dogs), and giving medication. I love being outside, and a, happy to give your dog an extended walk if they are a more active breed. I currently live with an older, mellow cat who is friendly with most other animals.
