Pet care experience
I grew up with both cats and dogs, and have been cat and dog sitting since I was a teenager. I was also cat mom to a special needs cat with extensive medication needs, so I'm very comfortable making sure your pet gets the medication/special care they require. I am also a marathon runner and love getting outside for long walks (or runs!) with your dog. And I'm a native New Yorker, so I am comfortable navigating your dog's favorite locations! Feel free to ask me any questions--but rest assured that I am a responsible, energetic pet lover with lots of experience looking after all different kinds of animals and paying close attention to the distinct needs of every pet. I am respectful of your space and of your rules for your pet, so just let me know what kind of care you are looking for, and I am happy to provide it.
Reviews
Nora boarded our cat, Oona, for two weeks while we were away. One of the reasons we chose her is that she boards only one pet at a time. Sharing a space with another cat (or dog?) would not have worked for Oona. Nora took very good care of her and is obviously a cat lover. Oona seemed quite content when we picked her up. We will certainly ask Nora to board Oona if we take another long trip.
Nora is the perfect pet caretaker. From dogs to cats to rabbits to fish and everything in between, Nora loves them all and will care for them as if they were her own. I would absolutely hire her to watch after my little ones when I'm unavailable. She's responsive and always takes the best pictures to make me feel good about being away from my four legged roommates.
Nora is a very kind and caring person. I really enjoyed working with her to watch my puppy. Since my puppy is too young to go outside for walks, she was so sweet and came over to my house to feed and play with her. I immediately felt at ease when I met Nora and I will definitely be using her again! I highly recommend her!
Nora walked my elderly terrier tuesday and thursday mornings for the past two years. Sadly, I recently moved (with 16 year old Floppy) to Florida and have had lots of trouble replacing Nora's genuine and compassionate energy. She was always punctual, well-mannered, and highly responsible. Floppy just loved her! He'd wag his tail at the sound of her name. Could not recommend highly enough. And dear Nora, I miss you!

Information Nora B. would like to know about your pet
I am happy to care for any pet regardless of their needs -- whether those are medication needs or extra long walks or runs! Just let me know what they are. I love both cats and dogs and understand that each pet is an individual who needs individualized care, so update me on their quirks and favorite things so I can help them have an amazing day :)
A typical day
I love to walk out to the path along the water in Bay Ridge or go take in the views of Sunset Park, Greenwood or Prospect Park. There's so much beautiful green space for both longer or shorter adventures! And I love curling up on the couch for some good pets with your cat or dog as well, of course :)
