About: Former dog owner and shelter volunteer with over 15 years of experience. I’m a go-to sitter for friends and I’m an active runner on the Rockaway boardwalk. I'm very comfortable and capable with all temperaments and energy levels. I have a hybrid work schedule, where I work from home 3 days during the week, and would be able to take breaks for walks. Weekends I am free. I live in a 4th floor walk up that allows pets. Other tenants have dogs. I live less than 1 block away from the boardwalk and beach for walks.

Friday through Saturday 5am till 5:30pm, Sunday mornings 5am till to 3:30pm. For boarding im available all days. I have a flexible schedule!

We LOVE Brittany!!! She is absolutely fantastic! Finn adores her, and she always goes above and beyond to make sure he has a great time on his walks. She's super punctual, keeps me updated with cute pictures and videos, and is always quick to respond to any messages. I couldn't ask for a better person to take care of my furry baby. Thank you for all that you do!

Ariella calmed my anxiety whether she knows it or not! Took care of my nearly 7 month old pup, Alf with confidence and care. Very much look forward for Ariella and Alf to hang out again!

Tatiana was fantastic! We booked her for dog walking the day before we needed her, as it was very last-minute. Despite the short notice, she was incredibly accommodating and even came to meet our pup the same day we booked her. This thoughtful gesture made sure our Etta wasn’t surprised by a stranger when we weren’t home. Tatiana kept us updated when she arrived, which gave us great peace of mind knowing our girl was in good hands. Her care and attention to detail were truly outstanding—we highly recommend her!

About: I have experience with animals of all kinds. My experience includes caring for my childhood cats and walking friends' dogs when they're out of town. My experience also includes end of life care for my aging childhood cats. I do home stay visits with cats and dogs during my free time.

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs for my neighbors of different varieties. I love big dogs and small dogs alike, even medium dogs. I know nurturing a bond with the dog is very hard but very rewarding and I’m willing to put in the work. I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty time to go in and check in on your fur babies. I definitely can walk bathe play, and feed dogs while I visit! I currently own one dog in a fenced in yard, and I own one cat, he is my light and joy. I love him so much.

About: Animal lover and bestie since before I could walk! My house growing up felt like a zoo with 10 cats, 3 dogs, 2 guinea pigs, and my older brother's snake. All those personalities shaped my love for every animal! I’m currently in school full-time at the Fashion Institute of Technology! When I’m not in classes, my schedule is pretty clear to fill up with all the fur babies! For clients, I follow their detailed instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication, and any specific needs or routines. If they’re in my home, I have a separate room where I let the newcomer relax for a few hours before slowly introducing them to my friendliest animals first.

My dog liked Ariella right away, which honestly says everything. She has some joint problems, so walks can be a bit tricky, but Ariella found a gentle, thoughtful approach that worked perfectly for her. I really appreciated how patient and attentive she was , it was clear she took the time to understand my dog’s needs and made sure she was comfortable every step of the way. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such caring hands. Highly recommend Ariella to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and truly great with dogs!
