About: Growing up with dogs taught me something early: pets are family. Outside of my full-time remote tech consulting gig, I provide high-touch based pet care for families throughout Westchester and Manhattan. My goal is simple: create a calm, trusted second home where your dog feels genuinely safe and loved. I intentionally keep bookings limited so every dog receives individualized attention, consistency, and companionship. Whether your pup is energetic and playful, senior, recovering from surgery, or simply loves a calm environment, I tailor care around their exact routine and personality. What makes Kristine different: ✓ 100% work-from-home flexibility ✓ Fenced backyard + Hudson River walks ✓ Real-time photo/video updates ✓ Pick-up/drop-off assistance available ✓ Medication administration experience ✓ Senior & post-surgery support ✓ Calm, low-volume household ✓ Overnight house sitting with light home care included For pet parents who home-cook meals, I’m also happy to prepare fresh dog meals in my home using your provided ingredients. For house sitting clients, I believe premium service should feel complete. In addition to caring for your pet, I help maintain peace of mind by bringing in packages/mail, taking out trash, watering plants, and keeping your home tidy. I’m building long-term relationships with both dogs and their owners. Many of my clients become repeat families, and that trust means everything to me. Let’s schedule a meet & greet and see if we’re a great fit for each other. 🤍 My work-from-home schedule provides complete flexibility for boarding, house sitting, walks, feeding, and bathing. I have my own vehicle to help with pick-ups and drop-offs. My home has a fenced backyard, and located close to the Hudson River, offering safe outdoor access and scenic trail walks. For house sitting, I maintain your pet's exact routine in their familiar environment while also helping collect mail/packages, watering plants, and light cleaning to ensure you return to a tidy home.

About: After becoming an owner to a reactive, human-aggressive pit mix in my early 20s, I developed a deep passion for understanding dogs—not just through training, but through their psychology, genetics, and biological needs. That experience taught me that behavior is often a reflection of a dog’s overall wellbeing, and that dogs thrive when they have opportunities to fulfill the instincts and needs they were bred for. As a mom, I also understand how difficult it can be to balance your dog’s needs with family, work, and everyday life. That’s why I founded Fulfilling Canine: to help busy families give their dogs a more enriching, fulfilling life while building a deeper understanding of their individual needs. I believe every dog is unique, and my approach starts with meeting each dog where they are. I consider the bigger picture—including genetics, environment, physical and psychological needs, stress, learning history, and the relationship between dog and handler—rather than simply addressing behaviors in isolation. My training approach is individualized and balanced, with a strong emphasis on relationship-building, play, engagement, communication, and trust. My goal isn’t just a dog who can perform commands, but a confident, fulfilled dog who genuinely enjoys working and experiencing the world with their person. **Services I offer:** 🐾 Structured Boarding & Walks 🏡 Drop Ins 🥾 Adventure Hikes 🎓 Day Training Whether your dog needs more enrichment, structured exercise, training support, or simply more opportunities to experience the world, I’m here to help them live a more fulfilling life. I am currently a SAHM so I have all of the availability to dedicate to providing your dog with enriching, educational, and fun experiences while they are in my care. My yard is fully fenced and I take your dog’s safety very seriously. They would never be left unattended in my home or yours. Fulfilling your dog while they are in my care is my top priority. Their schedule will be based upon their individual needs versus your training goals for them. I am big on breed specific fulfillment so your dog’s stay will usually include decompression time, 1-2 walks, structured play, and a training session if desired. I can also provide treadmill time and access to field trips/pack walks if desired.

“Sam did a great job. I plan to use his services again.”

“Great experience!! Marisa just finished several days of daily drop-ins for my three precious brother cats. They had the same sitter for almost nine years in TX, but we moved back to NY and did not have anyone here yet for nearly two years. I was so nervous about having a new sitter because our cats require so much TLC and laptime, and so one of us always stayed behind with them. I knew the moment I walked in from our trip, that the kitties were calm and happy. Marisa gave them so much TLC and kept me informed daily with photos and reports about how well they were adjusting. Marisa is truly an animal person, and I could see how they naturally took to her right away. She was thorough and confident with instructions and care, and she reassured me that they would be in good hands!!! Very true and very happy to share that!!”

Pets will be given proper care including potty breaks, regulated feeding, and proper engagement to make sure they get all their boxes checked. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and cater to their needs!

About: I’ve had the opportunity to know and take care of so many pets over the past 10 years, they’ve become family to me. I’m an active person who loves playing with dogs and taking them on adventures. I’ve sat and walked many breeds, sizes, and ages, across all kinds of environments, including a long-term role as a private pet care provider for a high-profile client. Animals are a passion of mine, and I believe they deserve only the best from the people who care for them. I’m always eager to make new connections, message me and let’s set something up! My schedule varies week to week since I work shifts that change regularly, but I keep pet care flexible around it. I check my availability closely before committing to anything, so if I say yes, you can count on me to be there. I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit both our schedules — just reach out and we’ll figure it out together When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same respect and care I’d want for my own — sticking closely to your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions you give me. I’m attentive to their environment, making sure doors and gates are secure and nothing is out of place that could put them at risk. I always keep an eye out for changes in behavior or health, so if anything seems off, you’ll hear from me right away. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first, always.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

About: I've cared for pets since I was 16 years old. I helped my family, friends, and neighbors when they needed someone to take care of their pet(s). I've cared for a ton of pets ranging from fish, hermit crabs, birds, bunnies, gerbils, hamsters, cats, to dogs. I love dogs so much I created a dog blog on the side as a hobby. I am currently writing remotely from home for work with a flexible schedule with time to also take care of your pet during most of the hours. I am easily able to take care of my own dog with ease. I have a little teddybear dog of my own, and completely understand the love and care pets receive from their owners. I get that it is your baby you do not need to worry. I will respect, honor, and care for your pet just as you would.
