Snuggles, walks, and furry friends!

Pet care experience

Just a girl, standing in front of NYC’s doggie moms and dads, asking them to let her love on those doggos! Be it through long walks, endless games of fetch, snuggles on the couch (or even in bed), and tail-wagging belly rubs and back scratches. Whatever your dog needs, I’ll gladly take care of it, either on the streets (on a walk), in your home (for visits) or my own (for sleepovers!). I’ve grown up with all different breeds and sizes of dogs. Currently I have a rescue Havanese-Shih-Tzu mix, and a Golden Doodle. I can’t imagine my life without them, just as I know you can’t imagine life without yours! And that’s why I’ll love them as my own!

Nancy has huge heart for dogs and not enough dogs to shower with that love. When she met her dog Harvey at the shelter, she fell instantly in love and took him home that same day. Having witnessed Harvey transform from scraggly and skittish to well-behaved and completely devoted to Nancy, I am convinced that any dog under Nancy's care will be in excellent hands and enjoy plenty of quality time with Nancy and Harvey at the park!

Nancy and I lived together in 2015. She and I have always talked about getting a dog until one day, she came home with a rescue, Harvey. He was extremely guarded, shy, would growl at everyone, and even try to bite anyone who got too close. He was clearly abused in his previous life and traumatised from it, but Nancy was dedicated to being the best owner she could be. Over the months that he lived with us (until Nancy moved), it was really hard for him to trust me or warm up to me, despite the fact that we lived under the same room. Harvey acknowledged Nancy as his rescuer but I could tell he still didn't fully trust her and was very confused about how he should interact with her. I saw Nancy and Harvey about 2 years later and he was changed. He still is guarded around strangers but he's calmed down a lot. He no longer threatens to bite. He listens to every word Nancy says. It's amazing the work she was able to do with him in those 2 years. I'm so impressed by her skills to turn this crazy dog around and now he's a calm, trained, house dog. I actually visited Nancy a week ago and was telling her how amazed I was at her ability to change this dog's life with such love and patience.

I've seen Nancy's love for dogs through her commitment to her dog Harvey. He explores so many places with her and is very well behaved. He even grabs his leash to go on a walk! She loves dogs and would take care of anyone else's pet with care and love.
