Dog Walking Spuyten Duyvil

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was very young, including dogs, cats, and a variety of other animals. I had my own cat starting at age 13, where I was responsible for daily feeding, litter care, playtime, and making sure he stayed healthy and happy. I also cared for my grandparents’ dogs and have helped friends by pet-sitting when they travel, giving me experience with pets of different personalities, routines, and needs. What sets me apart is my reliability, attention to detail, and the fact that I work from home, which allows me to provide flexible, consistent care and attention. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, whether playful, shy, or independent, and adjust my care so they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I also prioritize communication, providing updates and photos so owners always know how their pet is doing. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent, attentive care for your pet. I’m available throughout the day for feedings, check-ins, playtime, and making sure your pet is comfortable and well cared for. My schedule allows me to be reliable and responsive while giving your pet the attention they deserve! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box or pet area cleaning, and any medications if needed. I spend quality time with pets through play, companionship, and attention based on their personality and energy level. I also respect my client’s home by keeping the space clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I make sure doors are locked, pets are safe, and everything is tidy before leaving. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: My name is Jacob and I love dogs! I’ve been walking them and training them since I was seven-years-old. I have experience with dogs both big and small as well as breeds such as pit-bulls, mastiffs, and labradors. I’m comfortable with any type of dog. As for my previous experience, I used to walk dogs in my neighborhood in New York City where I grew up. I also love cats! I have a nice fluff-ball named Deebo. I love the little guys! I have references and will provide them upon request. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work night shifts starting at 10:30pm (starting on May 18th) but I’ll be available during the day and evening. Mornings are best, but I’m flexible. I will treat your home with the utmost respect and will cherish your pet. I take pride in my work and will ensure that it will seem like I was never there.

“Leora was very communicative and did a great job walking ivy with pictures and updates while I was away. Thank you!!”

“Binta was amazing with my dog Venus even going as far as being able to help Venus with her boots. We communicated the whole time before her walks which made me feel at ease. I will definitely contact her for future walks and whoever is reading this should to.”

“Liliana was awesome with our yorkie, Champy. She walked him and sent lots of great pictures. She was even able to give meds. I would certainly reach out in the future for dog walking and boarding needs.”

Rachel R.

“This was my first time using Rover and Victor made a great first impression! He was able to get my shy pup to open up and by the end of the booking, they were besties! He was very great with communication and always made sure to let me know how my dog was doing. Would recommend Victor to a friend!”

“Nicole is terrific! She walked my pup Sadie twice a day for several days and did a great job. She was in close contact about how Sadie was doing and sent photos. Other than one afternoon when she needed to cancel, Nicole arrived promptly and walked Sadie for a full hour each time as scheduled. Sadie absolutely loved her!”

Deborah S.

About: I love animals and I take good care of dogs and cats. I can taylor to your special needs. I’m very responsible and I pet sit my friend’s pet often and they all trust me with their pets.

The neighborhood is also pet friendly with lots of nature and parks. I can take them around the streets and the parks.

About: Hi! I’m Kris — a lifelong animal lover, experienced caregiver, and proud pet parent myself. After years working professionally as a nanny and preschool teacher, I understand how important trust, patience, and reliability are when caring for someone you love. I share my home with my rescue cat, Cosmo, who found me as a sick stray and quickly became the tiny king of the household. I have also been a shelter volunteer for many years, so I'm good with rescues and seniors. I’d love to help local families with dependable walks, check-ins, and companionship for their pets. Whether your pet loves a long stroll, a little extra playtime, or just a friendly face while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and appreciated. I believe every pet has their own personality (and usually very strong opinions!), and I love getting to know what makes each one special. I work at a restaurant in the evenings, but I'm looking forward to dedicating my mornings/ early afternoons to caring for YOUR fur baby! I'm also available weekends and most holidays. When caring for pets, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I'm detail-oriented and will always follow an owner's care instructions carefully. I understand the trust involved in allowing someone into your home. My years working as a nanny and preschool teacher taught me the importance of reliability, clear communication, and caring for someone’s family member exactly the way their family would want. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and notes so you know your pet is happy and cared for while you’re away!

About: I have loved animals all my life! I have had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and a few years working with PetsMart as a Pet Care associate. I am a full time pet sitter and I look forward to meeting and caring for new friends. I'm very very flexible and have transportation. I have a full house of cats and reptiles at home, so I can only pet sit in clients homes. I care for my pets by feeding twice a day, providing a lot of cat furniture and toys, being attentive and playful with them through out the day and allow them some sun bathing/fresh air time on our patio daily. Obviously I will respectfully follow any set rules and schedules of clients needs and wants and provide the same love and care as if they were my own.

“Isabella is the loveliest person. She really hit it off with my dog Winnie and they took fun packed walks. Isabella is so patient, letting Winnie go at her own pace, stop to do her Springtime rolls, and reported back to me in great detail about how everything went. Once when a hail/thunderstorm popped up, Isabella waited inside a long time till Winnie “agreed to go out”. She didn’t have to do that!! I told her to go! But she instead braved the rain, held an umbrella over Winnie, and took her for a half hour walk. I was blown away. I have not met Isabella in person but I can tell she’s a one in a million, a real responsible and caring person!”
