Dog Walking Kew Gardens

About: • I worked at the Howard beach animal clinic as a veterinary assistant where I assisted veterinarians with vaccine administration, blood draws, and wellness checks for both cats and dogs. I also learned how to administer medication to dogs/cats, give cpr to dogs specifically, handle hyperactive, anxious, and/or aggressive dogs/cats, and work with all kinds of breeds ranging from chihuahuas to Great Danes. • Before that, I gained experience working with dogs by volunteering at nyc pet services in Astoria, where I took care of many different kinds of dogs by supervising the area and ensuring all dogs were happy and safe. • My love for animals started with my golden Labrador and poodle at age 5, then at age 12 I got a Maltese whom I’ve grown up with and is now 16 years old. My experience not only includes dogs and cats of different breeds and sizes but also temperament, behavior, and personality. All of this experience has taught me how to read dogs and cats better, know when to approach sensitive dogs, and the best way to interact with said sensitive dogs. I can accept same day request due to my very flexible schedule, because of my flexible schedule I can focus on your pets happiness! I will have plenty of time to take them out on long walks for exercise, play time, and feedings. I love to spend time with dogs and cats, they truly make my day so much better! If it’s too hot out we can have play time indoors with some nice AC and play with some enrichment puzzles! I can assure your best friend will be in good hands and I’ll take care of them as if they were my own. I live in a pet friendly building, I’m on the first floor so your pets can enjoy jumping and running as much as they want! I have a park nearby where we can enjoy long walks and play time. A large living room that they can explore and take comfy naps. I can also make them tasty treats if you’d like! I have a small senior Maltese, she’s 16 years old and enjoys taking many naps but will still love to make new friends. She’s very chill due to her age so you can rest assured that your pups will be safe, but if you’d rather them be separated I have a divider that will ensure that! My priority is that both the owner and pup are comfortable and happy :)

“Charlie was great with both Scott (cat) and Jamie (dog). He took great care of them while I was on vacation and they both loved him. Charlie did exactly what I had asked and he was never late. Great communication and lots of photos of my boys. I will definitely book again in the near future.”

“We had a fantastic experience! Annye took wonderful care of our cat, Louis (9), and our dog, Hazel (7), with drop ins and walks over a week. Communication was excellent (we received consistent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind). Both pets were happy and bonded quickly, which says a lot. Also went above and beyond to handle a few issues that came up, and did so with flexibility and care. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend!”

“Catalina was awesome! I’m looking to find a new sitter/walker for my dog Lincoln. My dog is super particular and aggressive/territorial, so Catalina came to my apartment for a meet and greet. She brought treats and sat with Lincoln to calm his nerves, and even joined on a quick walk with us. She came back later that day for a walk and he remembered her so it was a smooth, quick transition. I received pictures and an update on him. Definitely will use again! Thanks!!”

“Jake is a wonderful dog walker. He knows a lot about dogs and he is very caring, highly punctual and very courteous. All in all you can't ask for more.”

Stuart K.

“Ronnie was super communicative and updated me after every walk. My pup is very picky with walkers but he walked well with Ronnie. Would definitely rebook her for walks.”

Jeannie L.

“Ocho loves Thoselin! She’s been very conscientious and reliable, and I trust her in my home and with my baby. Ocho can be anxious and hard to get outside, but she’s been flexible and, judging by the photos she sends, he has a great time with her!”

Cara O.

“Amazing as always. My dog had a great time with her, and immediately chugged water when he got home from the walk. He hates drinking water! Glad he got some exercise, or at least as much as his little Chihuahua legs will allow him.”

Brianna A.

“Melanie is organized, reliable and professional--she treats pet care as a business, because it is her business. But she merges that professional approach with a genuine love for animals, friendly customer service, and considerable experience and deep knowledge of dog care. She was able to help out last-minute with three walks during a family emergency, and I never once had to worry about how my dogs were doing. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Kind person, great dog walker.”

About: I have rescued and cared for animals my whole life. In addition, I’ve done pet sitting, walking and administering medication when needed. Reliable and loving. I am currently working part time but have enough flexibility to help out with your pets…even if you just want someone to keep them company, or check in on them. I will spend quality time with your pet..undivided attention, playtime, affection, walking, feeding and fulfilling needs required by pet/pet owner. Pet will not be confined and becomes a “part of the family”.

“Laura was great with Kobe. She was very communicative and was on time with each walk. Will use her again in the near future! Thank you!”

David C.

“My furry friends loved her. She took the time getting to know my dogs before the booked days. She kept me well informed and sent me photos of my babies daily! I will definitely book her again⭐️👍🏽”

I have cared for kittens at shelters and interacted with bunnies, horses, chickens, ferrets, dogs, aquatic life, and more. I can adapt easily, am patient, and loving to address your pet’s every need. I can administer medicine and treat them if special accommodations are required. I have interacted with aggressive to shy pets and understand their needs and can address them accordingly. On campus I am apart of prohealth, a pre-med focused organization, work at the Innovation labs, where I operate 3D printers to fusion 360, and run a nail business. I pay a lot of attention to detail and a fun fact is that I am a licensed nail technician.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my reliability, attention to detail, and hands-on experience working with animals. I’ve volunteered at Sean Casey Animal Rescue, where I helped care for dogs with different temperaments, energy levels, and backgrounds. That experience helped me develop a strong understanding of animal behavior and how to provide calm, patient, and compassionate care. In addition, I often take care of friends’ dogs when they travel or are away, so I’m used to maintaining routines like feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable while their owners are gone. I’m especially attentive with young pets who need structure and positive reinforcement, and I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need slower walks, extra attention, or medication reminders. I prioritize safety, consistency, and keeping pets relaxed in their environment. I also make sure pet parents stay informed by sending regular updates and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make every pet feel secure and cared for, and every owner feel confident their companion is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible freelance schedule and currently no full-time job. This allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to the pets I care for throughout the day. I’m able to plan my work around walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime, making sure each pet gets reliable care and attention. Because of this flexibility, I’m also available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits when needed. My routine allows me to be dependable, responsive to pet parents, and fully focused on providing safe, attentive care for every pet. I provide attentive, reliable care that keeps pets comfortable and safe in their usual environment. In a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, and making sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I also monitor their behavior and well-being to ensure they are happy and healthy while you’re away. For drop-ins or walks, I make sure pets get the physical activity and attention they need, along with bathroom breaks and any specific care instructions you provide. I respect your home, keep things clean, and send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. My goal is to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while giving owners peace of mind.

About: Im currently a college student and I love animals. I'm a dog lover, I am very patient and can tolerate and love any type of dog, every dog has their own personality and I respect that. Time management is one of my skills, I'm responsible, your dog will be provided with the care she/he needs, your dog/puppy will be in great hands. I know how important your best friend is, which is why I'll make sure to give you updates as frequent as possible about how your doggie is doing. I have a flexible schedule. Don't worry about weekends! Those are the best days for me. I will also be sure to follow any special instruction your pet may need. I can't wait to spread the love and care with your pets!

“William was excellent with our dog Coco. Coco was quite nervous and apprehensive at first but William knew exactly what to do to make Coco feel better. And coco really enjoyed his walks with William. We will definitely be asking William to walk Coco in the future.”
