I’m in my gap year to apply for law school so my schedule is flexible to play with pups🐶 and kittens🐱.🥳 I’m usually available from 9:30am to 7:30pm. I also offer long walks (2 hours or more), which give your pup a daily Central Park experience. Bookings are welcome on both weekdays and weekends. Let me know if you need help with dog walking & drop in visits.🫶🏼

Extra Patience & Extra Caring 🫶🏼

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats (fish, turtle, hamster and etc.) for family and friends. I pick up on pets’ needs easily and connect with them naturally. I’m also sensitive to pets’ emotions and naturally treat them like family. 🫶🏼 I do my best to create a safe environment and a positive experience for every visit and walk. I believe good communication is the key to a better experience. I will always keep you updated in real time with photos and videos.

I love her detailed messages, video, and pictures. My cat truly loves her and will miss her. For a week, she really took care of my cat, everything- food, litter box, treats, - and spent a wonderful time with her. I really appreciate her and definitely will rebook with her! Thank you!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
