Your Local Go-to Gal

Pet care experience

I grew up in Brooklyn with 2 boxer Pitt mixes. They were the sweetest loving dogs. I currently with no dogs at the moment which allows me endless time to spend with your pup. I live a few blocks away from prospect park and I like to take each dog through the park to socialize. If we are not in the park we walk on the outskirts and enjoy the lovely stroll near the botanical gardens. I am available to watch smaller breeds as well as larger breeds very well while respecting their space. All dogs boarding with me will have proper bedding and endless love and attention.

Ursula is the best! She has such a calming presence and was so great with our pup. It was our first time using a rover and going outside friends and family. She sent lots of photo and video updates and was so thoughtful in her care for Legs. A true rockstar. THANK YOU AGAIN!

Fantastic sitter. Ursula had a very calming energy at our meet and greet, which is just what my reactive dog child needed for an intro. She was on point with updates with pictures and video every day. Otis was able to sniff his heart out and was looking to follow her back once she dropped him off. 😅 Thanks so much for taking excellent care of him!!

Ursula is great! We have used her for dog walks a couple times now and she is always very timely and communicative. I would absolutely recommend her for dog walking or boarding!

I am so grateful for how well Ursula looked after my Saluki, Charlotte, for three weeks. Throughout Charlotte’s stay with Ursula I received multiple daily updates, and I could see that Ursula was taking the time to understand Charlotte’s funny personality and her preferences. She also asked all the right questions ahead of the stay to make sure she was well-prepared. Thank you so much Ursula for taking such good care of my girl! I’m sure Charlotte is already looking forward to her next visit.

Information Ursula R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know as much as possible about a dog before sitting them. Are they aggressive in any way shape or form? How do they interact with other dogs? Are they kennel trained ? I don't have a breed preference.

A typical day

We will play fetch in the house and leashed fetch outdoors if they are open to it. I have xl leashes for this. Your dog will enjoy homemade dog treats and access to toys while indoors. While we are outdoors your dog will enjoy the new sights, meeting new friends and fetch along with unlimited love from my mom who visits often.

I'm currently working part-time so I have endless time to watch and walk all pups. I prefer drop offs the night before the sit starts so I can show them around and allow them an extra night with me.
