Pet care experience

I’ll treat your pets like my own!

I grew up with many pets in the house and have been caring for them all my life. Throughout this time, we’ve had dogs of all different breeds, sizes, and ages, including some with health issues that required special care. I’ve also been pet-sitting for neighbors and friends for years, and have also volunteered at local shelters and humane societies. Since moving to New York, I haven’t been able to get a dog of my own, so I’d love the opportunity to spend time with yours, and I promise to care for them like my own!

Samantha took great care of our boy while we were away for 5 days and George loved her backyard. Would recommend!

Samantha took great care of our dachshund while we were away. She was flexible with the booking as we worked around our flights and very responsive throughout.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is a clean and safe environment for pets. My building has a large, fully enclosed, grass backyard / courtyard area where I can take them out to play. I also live close to Central Park for walks, and there is a dog park nearby if that’s something your pup enjoys!

A typical day

My building has a large, fully enclosed grass backyard area where your dog can run around off leash, chase the ball, or play whatever games they like! I also live very close to Central Park if long walks are more their speed. There’s also a dog park nearby for socializing, if that’s something you’re looking for. I will do whatever works best for your pet!
