Loving & Attentive Dog Caretaker

Pet care experience

Hi there, I'm Nina. I can't wait to be your pet sitter! It can be difficult to always be available for your dogs, and I would love to help ease that heartache by being a trustworthy person who can keep your little baby happy! I have the flexible schedule necessary to provide this care. Our household pets bring so much joy and positivity to our lives, and they deserve the same in return! I have loved taking care of animals all of my life.I had an English Springer Spaniel named Abby, and she was with me until she passed away at 14-years old. I have a 2-year old spayed Yorkshire Terrier named Lily that is the sweetest, friendliest dog to humans and dogs alike. Your dog's schedule is very important to me, as are their dietary restrictions, and I vow to take care of your pet just like you do. I go above and beyond with my care. Your dog will have access to tons of fresh water (after all, if I enjoy fresh icy water, a dog should too) tons of attention and treats as permitted by you! Your dog will love staying with me because my schedule revolves around dog care! I work part time, so my schedule is very open. I am out of the house approximately 20 hours per week. So I am able to take the dog for a walk at least three times per day. The temperature in the apartment will always be adjusted to the comfort of the dog, and there is plenty of open space in my apartment, as well as a crate, if you prefer crate training. I have plenty of toys and chewies for my house guests as well. My neighborhood is very dog-friendly, and I live a 10-minute walk from Central Park. I love to sing, and I love to make people laugh! I also love to make my dog Lily smile and have fun whenever I can! I am artistic, and I notice all small things! If anything is wrong, I am the first to know! I have been able to identify anything wrong with Lily right away and I'll be sure to with your dog too. I keep a watchful eye out, because I don't want to overexert the dog in warm weather, and I can also anticipate anything the dog might need. I'm here to provide the owners with confidence and peace of mind. I can give your dog the special attention they need. If your pup has any dietary, physical, or emotional concerns, I am ready to focus on assisting them! I am also happy to take photos of your happy dog so you can see what a great time we're having.

Information Nina M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the dog is potty trained, because I want to be prepared with pee pads and/or to walk more often. I would like to know how friendly your dog is with other dogs. Spayed/not spayed is not an issue. Specific dietary requirements are good for me to know ahead of time. I am willing to take on bigger dogs, but more often dogs under 50 lbs would probably be better.

A typical day

Depending on the weather, I can walk the dog around small parks in my neighborhood (plenty of squirrels to chase!), or, if it is not too hot, I will bring the dog to Central Park to enjoy the grass! I never let the dog off the leash, but I will run as far as he/she wants to take me! I have a fun pet store a couple blocks from my apartment as well. At home, I will throw the ball around and give plenty of belly rubs! Also, I am very willing to hold the chewie for them for long periods of time! :-)
