Dog lover with large indoor space

Pet care experience

My name is Nick, and I'm currently a Senior at NYU who misses my 12 yr old rescue, Scooter. Because I've dog walked and dog sat during high school, I signed up to care for pets in the city and fill the void of leaving my little buddy back in NJ. I have a Penthouse in Tribeca with a gigantic indoor space and a park nearby — your pup should feel right at home.

Nicholas was very communicative and laid back. It wasn’t a long visit, but our dogs seemed happy to hang with him for an hour or so! Would definitely use him again if we lived in Santa Monica!

Nicholas was so amazing and accommodating and Marlowe absolutely loved him :) She was so sleepy from all the fun she had with him and it takes a lot to get my puppy tired ?. I will definitely be booking with him again and would for sure recommend him to anyone and especially to anyone who needs someone good with puppies.

Nick took care of my 4 year old Shih Tzu, Tilly, over the summer and he was exceptional! Tilly requires a lot of attention, and Nick gave her all of the love she needs! I requested getting pictures of Tilly to make sure she was happy, and multiple times a day Nick went pictures of her. I will definitely hire Nick again and recommended him to all my dog owner friends!

Information Nicholas F. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if a dog is potty trained and if it is going to bite me or my roommates. These have been the two main issues with sitting in the past. I am able to deal with these situations, but it is uncomfortable for both the dog and myself

A typical day

I love bringing my dogs to dog parks, walking them by campus, and even simple things such as playing fetch with them in my apartment. I have a lot of energy, so it’s good if your dog does as well.

I’ve been working multiple jobs ever since I was 16, but none more rewarding than taking care and training dogs. It is truly a passion of mine, and I’ll make sure your pup is taken care of.
