Lifetime dog lover-10yrs experience

I’ve loved dogs my entire life. I picked out my first dog when walking home from work one day, I saw this tiny Siberian Husky in the window, and as the cliché goes it was love at first site lol. I immediately went inside and long story short, Blitz was my first dog and he unfortunately passed suddenly in July of last year. It was the hardest and worst day of my life. At this time I had two other dogs, Angel & Buddy. Angel passed recently and I just have Buddy left. This made me realize I need to keep working with and caring for as many dogs as I possibly can. Their unconditional love is truly unmatched. My sister owns a dog walking company in Brooklyn and I’ve been walking/doing sleepover/drop ins for the last 10 years. I’m always happy to meet a new pup!

Nelson was fantastic. Super attentive to the kitties and really helped me out in a pinch. Replied almost instantly and is an excellent communicator. I would highly recommend him to tend to your pets.

Pets

A typical day

I have a large fenced in backyard where the dog can run around safely and let loose! I also have a plethora of dog toys and treats. There’s 2 parks nearby that are great for walks, in addition to a dog run which is very close by as well.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only
No females in heat
Nelson can host up to 2 pets per night
Mainly if they are friendly. I have a Maltese named Buddy and he’s tiny and older now, so I can’t have a dog here that might hurt him. Aside from that, all are welcome!
