Highlights
Pet care experience
Superb sitter & walker! (flexible)
I have been a very big dog person since my family got a Goldendoodle in February 2010 when I was in 7th grade. I trained him, fed him, played with him, and walked him everyday. The peak of our walking came during covid when I was living and working from my parents' house in NJ, and we would go for 60 minute walks during my lunch hours. Now living in Upper East Side in the city, I take care and walk my friends' and cousins' dogs in Manhattan when they are out of town. This includes going to their apartment to walk the dogs and bringing the dogs to my apartment for overnight stays.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Nicholas was great with Taras! He showed up on time and made sure to ask clarifying questions. I only wish he were going to be in the area longer!

Nick was wonderful to our Shandy girl! Constant updates, videos and pictures of her having a wonderful time. Couldn’t recommend Nick enough to everyone in Manhattan!

Nicholas boarded our dog for several days. Nicholas was professional, responsive and took good care of our dog. Our dog enjoyed daily walks/play at the dog park. We had no worries and would book again with Nicholas.

Nick is the best walker!! I have a mini dachshund who’s not the best walker and he was super attentive to text when I had questions & wanted to check in on her. He clearly loves dogs and has been available when I needed. Highly recommend him!!

Nick was a fantastic sitter for Maddison. He was able to watch her last minute and provided great care for her. He checked in often with updates and pictures. I could tell Maddison had a blast! Would highly recommend Nick

I’ve personally seen Nick look after two dogs, both for long-term stays and walk duties, and he is incredibly responsible, attentive, and dependable. He genuinely cares about dogs and makes their comfort and safety a priority. He’s also someone who follows through on commitments and will adjust his schedule to ensure everything runs smoothly. Pet parents can absolutely count on him.

Schedule
I am currently working full-time and fully remote in Upper East Side. I am available to walk dogs before work, after work, as well as during the work day, as I have a very flexible schedule. I can also board / house sit while working remotely.
