Availability
I work from home and keep a pretty typical schedule--my dog and I go for a 30-45 min walk around 7:30 AM, a 45-90 min walk around 4PM, and then a 30-45 min walk around 8PM. In between, he lounges while I work with breaks for cuddles and play. I would adjust walking lengths to your dog's needs and can do more potty and play breaks if needed!

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large 3BR condo with a large living area, study (where I work), and dining area. Dogs are allowed on my couch and bed but there are also dog beds in nearly every room. My kitchen has a door and my pantry has a door that I keep closed so your dog wont get into any food they're not supposed to.

Information Shipra K. would like to know about your pet
I always do a slow introduction to my own dog. I put him behind a baby gate and let your dog explore the home. I let them get acclimated for 20-30 mins before removing the gate. This gentle introduction allows both dogs to settle in safely and has never failed me :) On rare occasions I may not be able to take high energy male dogs.
A typical day
I adjust activities based on your pups needs but I generally bring them on three ~45 minute walks/hikes a day with my own dog, play tug, and fetch with toys at home to your dogs content! I am always mindful of the temperature because I don’t want your dog or my own to overheat!

Pet care experience
My dog and I work from home all day and we'd love your pup to come hang out with us! I did my PhD at Johns Hopkins and now work as a remote tech professional. I have a 5-year-old lab/shepherd mix. I have babysat and fostered dogs of all shapes and sizes, including dogs with special needs. I'm the girl who takes better care of her dog than myself. I'm talkin' three 45+ minute walks a day, human-grade dog food with special toppings, and only positive reinforcement. I know how special your fur baby is and I know it can be scary to trust someone else with them--trust me, I've been there. I would treat them the exact same way I treat my own dog--with attention, care, respect, and lots of love. Your dog will be supervised at all times in a large 3BR condo with large living spaces, plenty of toys and places to lounge. Oh--and a goofy furry friend named Trevor!
Reviews
Shipra took good care of our dog. She walked and played with him. Her dog Trevor is very nice and well behaved. My dog is tiny but got along really well with him. I would love to keep my dog with her again!
Shipra was absolutely amazing with Toby. She constantly kept me updated with photos, videos, and little updates throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could genuinely tell Toby was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. One of the sweetest things was seeing Toby slowly become more comfortable around other dogs under her care. Her patience and attention really made a difference. I’m so grateful for the love and care she gave him, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter.
We had a great experience with Shipra! She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared a lot about our dog. We received regular updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Toby looked happy, well-fed, and comfortable when we returned. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet, but Shipra made the whole process smooth and stress free. We would definitely recommend Shipra and will be booking again!
I wanted to take a moment to express just how grateful we are for the outstanding care Shipra provided to our dog. Shipra goes above and beyond to keep us updated with text and photos, letting us know exactly how our dog is doing. This thoughtful communication really puts our mind at ease. We couldn’t be more pleased with the level of attention and care Shipra offers, and it’s clear they our dog is happy and well looked after. Thank you for making our time worry-free!
