Pet care experience
*Free Dog bathing with each overnight stay* I'm a paramedic and I enjoy helping people in their time of need, the feeling is mutual when it comes to dogs too. 6 years ago I brought home Cori as a puppy and he's been the best companion anyone can wish for. We then found a Yorkie alone on the streets and unable to find her owner we adopted and named her Mini. Answering an online ad, a family didn't have time for their Corgi and was looking to give her away and we answered the ad brought home Nabi. The three of them get daily walks in the neighborhood and every few days we bring them to the large park nearby to meet other dogs and get their muscles worked on. Any dog staying over with these three will get plenty of exercise from playing with each other! Be assured that your dog won't be alone at all during any point of the day or night most of the time. Besides the company of my three dogs, someone will usually be home. I work the overnight while my wife works during the day so there will be human interaction all the time. We also have an abundance of toys, doggy beds, and doggy treats to please any dog. I also own a doggy treadmill, perfect for those days when it's just too nasty to be outside. My dogs know an assortment of tricks such as paw, sit, stay, high five, bye bye, roll over, and my favorite one of all "BANG BANG", my version of playing dead. If needed, I can help with your dog's behavior problem or to learn a new trick, no dog is ever too old or young to learn something new, its all about persistence and patience. Meet and greets with the dogs are highly recommended as to see how the dogs interact and any questions or concerns can be easily answered. We do have a few rules for the home: *We ask that all dogs be housebroken to avoid any unnecessary accidents. More frequent walks can be accommodated if needed. *All dogs MUST be comfortable with the handling of their paws, we wipe our dog's paws before they enter the home in order to maintain a clean home.
Reviews
Roland is amazing and accommodating. Considering my request are always last minute. I travel a lot for work. It's always a good sign when my dog is excited to see him and his family and doesn't even look back to say goodbye lol.
Roland was an awesome sitter and did a great job dog sitting Mozart for us while we were away. He sent us a couple of pictures during his stay with them and Mozart seemed to be enjoying himself. Will definitely use his services again when we need to.
Roland is a lifesaver. I travel for work and sometimes it's last minute, Roland has always been flexible and available. It's not easy finding someone in NYC who's willing to take in a 111lbs dog. My dog absolutely loves spending time with Roland and his family.
Henry always enjoys his stay with Roland! Even though Henry is extremely attached to me, Roland is the only human he willingly goes to and is happy to be with! Henry comes home happy and based on pictures, is happy to spend time with Roland and his doggie family!
