Reliable & Flexible

Hi, I’m your dedicated dog walker servicing Passaic, Clifton, Garfield, Wallington, Paterson, Carlstadt, Lodi, Nutly, East Rutherford, Rutherford and Wood-Ridge areas ! I specialize in energizing morning walks and calming evening strolls—perfect for a balanced day. Whether your dog needs a brisk exercise session or a gentle, sniff-filled adventure, I tailor every walk to their needs. I offer one-on-one care or small-group walks, adjusting for weather, so your pup is always comfortable—shorter play if it’s hot, and extra attention if needed. I also have a background in caring for cats, puppies, fast walkers, and senior dogs—including those who need extra exercise for weight management. With one-on-one, thoughtful care, I’ll make every walk the best part of your dog’s day!

Paloma was great! We had our fur baby on her hand for eight nights. Paloma updated everyday how he was doing during our travel with bunch of photos. Our puppy seem to be very happy on her hand. When we picked him up, he seemed to be so sad to be parted with her and refused to leave. He was healthy and happy when he came back home. I will definitely find her again when we have another occasion that we have to leave him behind.

Paloma was great with Marko. She administered his meds as instructed and helped calmed him down during his first 4th of July fireworks experience

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are at the heart of my pet care services. I ensure every visit is calm, secure, and tailored to your pet’s comfort. I keep a close eye on their environment—ensuring they have a safe space, secure handling, and plenty of enrichment. You can rest assured that your pet is in caring, experienced hands every step of the way.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with me always starts with a refreshing walk—full of exploration and energy—no matter the time they’re booked. After the walk, we have a cozy play session with their favorite toys and lots of gentle petting. Whether it’s morning or afternoon, I make sure your pet gets the exercise and enrichment they need, ensuring a balanced mix of activity, comfort, and loving care every day.

To provide the best possible care, it’s important for me to learn about your pet’s unique needs and routine ahead of time. Please share details about feeding schedules, potty habits, exercise preferences, medical conditions, medications, allergies, and any behavioral traits such as anxiety, leash reactivity, or triggers. I also appreciate knowing what your pet loves most — favorite toys, commands they respond to, sleeping habits, and socialization comfort levels with other animals or people. The more I understand about your pet in advance, the more I can create a safe, personalized, and stress-free experience that helps them feel happy and at home while you’re away.
