About: Hi! I’m John — a certified dog lover, NYC DOE-vetted caretaker, and proud former dog dad to the sweetest Shih Tzu, Lola. I grew up with dogs and cared for Lola for over 10 years. I know exactly how much your pup means to you because mine was truly part of my heart. Whether I’m walking, sitting, or dropping in, I’ll treat your dog like family — with patience, love, and dependable care. I’m based in Staten Island and currently work as a substitute teacher, which means I’ve passed background checks and know how to be punctual, respectful, and trustworthy. My schedule is flexible over the summer and during weekends. Let’s chat — I’d love to meet your pup and become their new favorite human! I’m going to have full availability to work over the summer, since I work as a substitute teacher in the New York City Department of Education. I can also accommodate towards last minute bookings if needed! The neighborhood that I live in is very safe and quiet, which would be ideal for walks. Your pet would always get my full attention to their daily needs.

“Thank you for taking great care of my baby even if she made a sh**** first impression lol!”


About: My love for animals is more than just a hobby, it's a core part of who I am! If you Look at my social media explore pages or scroll through my camera roll, you'll see it's just an endless album of adorable dogs and cats I've encountered everywhere. I'm that person who will happily stop a stranger on the street just to ask if I can admire and snap a photo of their cute dog. Animals bring me so much joy and I genuinely believe they make the world a better place. My passion extends beyond just admiration; it's about providing the best possible care, endless affection, and a safe, happy environment for every pet I have the privilege of looking after. As a part-time student, I have a flexible schedule with a lot of free time on days I don't have classes. This gives me alot of time to schedule pet care into my routine! I like to be a patient and attentive caregiver, understanding that every pet has unique needs and preferences, whether it's during meal times or grooming. I'll actively monitor their environment to ensure their safety and well-being and will always conduct research or reach out to you if I have any concerns.

“Jenna is amazing! She helped me out super last minute so my boyfriend and I could go out of town for the day and she took great care of our dogs. She stopped by the night before for a meet and greet which was so helpful. She kept me updated with messages and pictures during her drop in visits and our dogs had a great time with her! I look forward to having her help us again in the future! Thanks again Jenna!”
