Loving Sitter w/ Flexible Schedule!

I’m a Brooklyn-based dog & cat lover! My boyfriend and I work from home & would love for your babies to keep us company at home and when we take our walks! We frequent Cadman Plaza Park and the Promenade for fresh air and a good leg stretch as they are about a 5-minute walk away. Having spent most of my life caring for dogs in my family, I've acquired valuable experience and knowledge in handling different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I am well-versed in proper leash handling, canine body language, and implementing effective belly rubs and cuddles! All overnight stays include 3 daily walks. (If your fur baby’s state of health allows.)

Another wonderful boarding with Nirvana - this time during the big storm! Nirvana took the best care of Hudson (as always) and was in frequent communication since we were nervous given the weather. Thank you from us and Hudson!

Nirvana did such a great job taking care of our pup! She was super communicative, very flexible with timing, and sent so many nice updates of the day they were having! We would 100% book her again!!

Nirvana was wonderful once again! She took care of our very anxious dog Judith for a long weekend and did an excellent job staying in communication and taking care of her. Nirvana even ended up keeping Judith for an extra night due to a long-delayed flight, and it was great to know she was safe while we struggled to get home. We were so appreciative of Nirvana’s flexibility. Thank you!!!

Matilda stayed with Nirvana for a week. Nirvana was very responsive and sent photo and text updates, and Matilda came home happy and healthy. I would definitely book with Nirvana again!

Safety, trust & environment

Understanding that every dog is unique, I approach my role with compassion and patience. I recognize that some dogs may require extra time to feel comfortable, and build trust. By creating a calm and nurturing environment, I'll ensure that each dog's emotional and physical well-being is always prioritized.

A typical day

Aside from long walks and lots of cuddles, I have just as much fun playing fetch, tug of war & mini obstacle courses as they do!
