Works all hours/has large apartment

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm a jazz musician by night (well, some nights) and a dog caretaker by day (and most nights). We've had dogs in my family as early as I can remember. I'm very experienced with handling dogs, even if they are uncomfortable with strangers! I have a large room inside a large Washington Heights apartment--comfortable for everything from dachshunds to danes! I own a few different dog toys perfect for playing fetch in the long hallway. Since I'm free most days, I can walk faraway dogs at odd hours, so please get in touch with me! I'm happy to babysit your dogs on short notice, and I'll even bring my own top sheet! I'm looking for a way to supplement income for my true passion (jazz) with one of my favorite interests (playing with dogs). PS- I only buy the fanciest organic fair trade homemade bakery dog biscuits!

Sam is by far my first choice when I need someone to take care of my pup. He seems to have a genuine connection with my dog, and she is always excited to see him. He doesn't just take her for a walk around the block and feed her--he spends time playing with her and has really gotten to know her. Sam is reliable, trustworthy, and kind. I would highly recommend him!
