UWS dependable dog and cat lover 🐾

Pet care experience

I've had dogs my entire life, and I love spending time with them - all breeds all sizes all ages. My husband and I have a 2 1/2 year old dog called Noodles, she is friendly, playful and loves her long walks as well as dog play dates at home! She grew up with small breeds and knows to be gentle. She'll play and share her toys with your dog, or she will give them as much space as they need. Your dog is welcome to hang out on our couch for petting and snuggles! For your peace of mind, I do not leave pets home alone.

Very very grateful to Vera for taking my dog at short notice and for a very long day. I had to travel to NJ for work and couldn’t have left my dog in better hands. Vera was thoughtful and considerate and asked me for details re my dog’s schedule beforehand. She also sent regular updates and took my dog on long, happy walks. My dog was super happy and playful when I got her back. Thank you Vera for the care!

I'm not sure that anyone can live up to Vera's amazingness. My dog was so happy and didn't want to leave her. I will be booking with her again and again. She is a kind soul and it's obvious that she loves her extended furry families. anything wonderful that I have to say about her is an understatement
