Dog Walking Morningside Heights

“Geslie was fantastic, and was timely with communication, easy to coordinate with, and attentive to details that easily be missed by others. I am pleased with the care that my dog got while I was at work, and appreciated the introduction in advance that was offered.”

About: Why, hi! I’m a Yale graduate and current Columbia Law student looking to get my pet snuggle fix while making use of my flexible schedule. - Dogs: I’ve had family dogs my whole life, and I frequently watch my friends’ pups. - Cats: I grew up having, petsit for, and really adore cats. You can often find me sitting on NYC streets petting neighborhood dogs and trying to resist adopting all the cats I see. I will treat your fur baby like my own! After working for several years, I’m currently back in school as a law student. This means I’ll have time to play with, check in on, walk, feed, give belly rubs to etc. your pet on a somewhat flexible schedule. I live in an elevator building with grass, parks, and green space nearby. In your home, I’ll keep your pet comfortable while respecting your space.

“Thanks for taking care of my furbaby. My baby had a great walk with her. She was reliable and followed my notes. She made a good impression. I’d definitely book her again 🙂”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was little and am proud dog parent to a 7 year old lab/pit mix named Graham. I am a graduate student with your dog’s safety and enrichment as my #1 focus.

I can be available during the work day and on weekends. I am happy to follow your directions on route preferences and other adjustments to ensure that your dog is comfortable on our walks! I am safety oriented first and foremost and keep a close eye on our surroundings and the weather conditions.

“Paul was the perfect person to take care of our boys! He connects with our boys so they feel so comfortable with him, great communication and he truly cares for dogs and he shows it with how he took care of our boys. If you need a dog walker, trust me & hire Paul!”

“Christina was great, when he didn’t want to walk long in the rain she stayed and played with him to ensure he got some exercise and attention.”

About: If we’ve crossed paths before, 9/10 I probably came up and asked to pet your dog/cat! I’m a proactive & vigilant person with so much love for animals and I am not shy about it! I have two cats so I would say that i’m 100% more knowledgeable with them! I’ve also been blessed to bring a 4 month puppy into the family! I may be newer to the dog world but i’m willing to learn while also having a good pet care foundation cause i do a ton of research! :) On top of all of this, I believe my best qualities are that I am extremely open minded and patient. Your dog takes a little too long on their walks? Perfectly fine! Your dog likes to jump a lot? I love their way of expressing excitement! Your cat doesn’t like people/is good at hiding but you would like a photo of them to make sure they’re okay while you’re away? I will do everything I can while also respecting their boundaries!! I treat pets with so much love and respect, I hope you’d consider me! I recently accepted a part time job so flexibility is super appreciated and important for both of us to work something out for your pet! You can trust me by getting to know how much I care about my pets! I would do anything to improve their lives. - I provide many, many toys. I even find ways to DIY them! - I will scoop litter everyday because they deserve a clean area to do their business! - I always give them treats because I know how happy it makes them - I give them love whenever they want or ask for it - I have two cat trees (used to be 3, if i had space for more i’d totally have more!!) - I quite literally drop everything (of course not in emergencies) and give them love and attention whenever they ask - I take the time to read the ingredients on their food to make sure even they aren’t consuming processed ingredients because i care about their health and coat. - I have a water fountain because I prioritize hydration and know that it helps them see the water better & I make sure it is always pretty full so they never run out of water :) - I have two window hammocks! - I also have two dog beds! - Any decision I make, I always consider my babies :)

“James has formed a really trusting relationship with my rescue pup, and that’s not easy to do. She is very picky about who she trusts. I am so glad we found him.”

“Stephanie is just the best. She’s been walking my dog for a few days now and my dog is rather reactive and she is like a dog whisperer. He loves her and she knows how to keep him calm and I’m just very impressed with her intuitive sense of how to be with a rather fussy dog. I would recommend her to anybody. She is punctual and she is kind and she is professional and she is very capable.”

About: I enjoy creating a special bond with dogs and cats, always going beyond walking, feeding, and keeping them company. I am committed to not disrupting current schedules while providing extra enrichment and giving your baby another human to trust. It is important to me that everyone leaves better because of that trust and time spent, including myself. Special skills include long term care, caring for 3+ animals, puppy training, medication administration (including cbd), senior care, caring for anxious animals, as well as reptile care (I am a reptile parent). I work freelance, giving me full control of my weekly schedule. Pet care seamlessly fits into my routine because it is already a part of my routine, I have been in pet care consistently for 6 years. I also must be walked daily, and enjoy taking those walks in different neighborhoods with different companions. I prefer to care for pets in spaces where they feel comfortable and safe, their home. While I am in your home I am always respectful and clean. It is important to me that I have an understanding of house rules, your pets schedule, and emergency contacts including their vet.

“Hannah is so attentive to our pets and really cares about them! She is willing to go out of her way to ensure your pets are left happy and with all of their needs met!”
