You and your pup can depend on me!

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs and cats since my first pet when I was 6 years old. I have also taken care of friends' and family members' dogs for extended periods of time over the years. I have a very well-behaved chocolate lab named Sally who is turning 9 this year. I've had her since I rescued her as a puppy. I can offer pickup and delivery services as well!

Sam was very flexible, communicative, and punctual. He took great care of my pup during her walks, which isn't always easy since she's blind. I would highly recommend Sam.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced-in yard. I live with my wife; no kids yet! I am a short walk from dog parks in downtown Jersey City. My 9 year-old chocolate lab Sally is friendly and well-socialized with other dogs. She loves to play and clearly has a bit of a loving maternal instinct towards puppies.

Information Sam W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know beforehand if your dog shows any kind of aggression around food or toys. I’d rather plan for it than find out on my own!

A typical day

I really enjoy taking my dog and the dogs I board to the dog park. I also think having higher energy dogs is a great incentive to get out more and go for longer walks than I would normally.

I work from home mostly, and have plenty of flexibility to accommodate your schedule. Spending time with perfect pets is my preferred way to spend my time! I love hiking and being outside, so taking dogs out for exercise fits in perfectly with my goals for the day. My wife also loves dogs and works from home.
