Different Paws- All ANIMALS Welcome

We genuinely love all animals! As long as they are not aggressive towards other humans and animals, your dog/OTHER pet can definitely stay with us. ABOUT ME: Hi! I'm sarah and my dream is to build a shelter and rescue for Bronx community cats and dogs. The Bronx is often overlooked and underfunded. I want to be the voice for the animals. I started TNR just last summer 2025, and have helped almost a dozen cats with TNR and finding a forever home (for the friendlys). The number could be higher if I had the funding for transportation, food, and other resources. This is the reason why I have decided to reactivate this account. A few updates: -Akira is no longer with us. She crossed the rainbow bridge on 10/6/25. -Currently we have 2 rescue cats and 0 dogs. -We also have a bird now, a beautiful Macaw. - We also have a 2 year old Hooman in the household as well. So you need to be sure that your dog is good with kids. No exceptions, my child's safety is a priority.

Sarah was just the most fantastic dog sitter ever! My husband and I left our two dogs with her during our summer vacation for over two weeks. Sarah took them out everyday and kept us updated of their progress with photos and videos. They looked wonderful upon on our return. I cannot recommend her enough!

Sarah was so awesome with my Nena & my furry baby really enjoyed her stay. Nena was so spoiled & so well taken care of by Sarah. She is a blessing in disguise & really loves these dogs, that just want her attention. Sarah sent us so many daily updates by text, pictures & videos which we appreciated them so very much, it felt like we had Nena with us. Sarah was an excellent choice and we will definately be using her services again. We will also be recommending her to family & friends. We thank her so much for caring & spoiling our Nena, which we love so much!!!

Caring, loving and responsible. Sarah goes the extra mile to make sure that Maude is able to enjoy her stay and that i’m able to relax while i’m away. There was not a day when I couldn’t reach out to her or get those much needed photo updates of Maude. And to top it all off, Akita is great company to Maude. I love the fact that Maude gets to hang out with a friend while I’m away. I would book Sarah again for future vacations!

Sarah was so kind to me and it was very obvious how much she loves dogs! She constantly kept me updated about what was going on with Blu and I know Blu is going to miss her. I will definitely ask her to help us in the future!

Finn seemed to have an amazing time with Sarah and Akira. Finn instantly felt comfortable in her home and loved that he had so much space to explore. Sarah kept me up to date on how he was doing and sent me great pictures of the pups playing. Thank you for taking such good care of him Sarah!

Schedule

I typically walk Akira in the morning, afternoon, and evening. There is also a small dog park nearby so that the dogs can socialize and run around. This schedule will apply to your dog as well, or can be adjusted for your pet's needs (if feasible). *Please be advised that during really cold or really hot days, the walks won't be as long as usual. Sometimes they may just use the yard instead.

No breed preferences whatsoever. My main concern is whether or not your dog is aggressive towards humans and/or other dogs. Does she have any MAJOR territorial issues, especially with food, or particular toys? I will never feed dogs together, unless they are siblings and they are trained to eat together. -Who is an emergency contact I can reach in case you are unavailable? Any concerns or issues I should be aware of? -Is your dog house-broken? Does she use "Wee Wee pads"? - Is your dog spayed/neutered? - Does she have updated vaccinations? (Not against it either...just need to know). -Does she bark frequently? If so, what methods do you use to calm her? -Is she a Senior dog with any issues? -Any special needs? -Allergies? -Does she have any excitement urination issues (if so please bring some disposable diapers for her). -What are some of your dog's behavior quirks? Anything in particular I should know? -Does your dog like to chew on wires, shoes, or anything around the house? Does it climb things, such as kitchen counter? -Is she allowed on furniture? -Any special tricks or training you'd like me to reinforce with your pet? -What methods do you use to reward behavior? -What methods do you use to CORRECT behavior? - What is your dog's feeding and walking routine? I expect for you to bring your dog's own food and leash; as well as any other necessary things your dog might need. I also expect for us to discuss feeding and walking routine, along with a safety plan and all the questions listed above.
