Katie walked my pup Romeo for the first time and she was amazing! I left a key out for her and she came in perfectly. She was so gentle and talked to Romeo like he was her own, which instantly made him comfortable. You can tell she really loves dogs!! Romeo warmed up to her so fast! Definitely booking her again - we loved her 💛🐾

Audrey is great, I recommend her to anyone needing some help with their pup! She's been walking my dog Pepper the last couple of weeks and everything has been smooth and easy. She is prompt when responding to booking requests and provides great communication during and after walks. She even was able to bring another dog along for the walks so Pepper could make a new friend! Thanks Audrey!

About: I’m (seriously) flirting with the idea of becoming a Pom owner. Would love this opportunity to have a joyful time with your Pomeranian. I have spent time with my friend’s poms previously and really miss the interactions. I have availability on weekdays ideally Tuesday’s and Friday’s. My scheduled time preference is 12-6 but I can be flexible with timing. I am very open to learning what works for you and yours. Describe myself as quite responsible and quick to learn different needs and preferences.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember! Wether it be my own, my friends, or my neighbors, i’ve always loved and been very in tune with animals and nature. I have helped puppies with potty training, socialization, equipment dressing, crate training, recall, and more! I have also taken care of senior animals. Providing them comfort while administering any extra care or medication they may need, including injections of subcutaneous fluids. Overall, I have a ton of love and care for animals, as well as experience keeping them as safe and comfortable as possible. I’m currently interning remotely at a film production company located in Los Angeles. I only work Tuesdays and Thursdays and even then have a very flexible schedule. If you need a great last minute sitter/walker, i’m here for you! I treat your homes and pets as if they were my own! I am incredibly detail oriented, careful, considerate, and adept at problem-solving. I will carefully listen to any and all directions you provide and follow them to a tea, as well as be independent enough to prevent or solve and issues that may arise. I would love to ease your stress and help you take care of your beloved homes and animals!

About: My extensive background in pet sitting speaks for itself, but what truly drives me is my deep connection and ability to bond with animals. I believe this personal connection is what makes me an exceptional caregiver, and it’s the reason I’m so passionate about working with pets. I have a wide open schedule. I wake up and get my pet ready for breakfast and I handle clean up around the same time. Throughout the day I engage with my pet. I have time and availability to do house visits or to walk your pet. I live in an apartment that is pet friendly. The windows are secure and the neighbors are pet lovers as well, so there is socializing and our 5 unit apartment building. The neighborhood here engages with pets on a regular basis

About: My girlfriend and I have taken care of cats & dogs all our lives. We both have experience with dog sitting, and will go the extra mile to make sure your pup has the best stay possible. I’m currently working part time/remote, so I will have an abundance of time for your pet! I also live half a mile away from Central Park and Carl Shurz park in the upper east side. As well as a dog park 5 blocks away. I can easily set up a crate if needed, or he can sleep on our couch. There is a patio as well and I try to take them to at least two parks a day.

Birger was fantastic with Moana! He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about her well being. He kept me updated throughout the walk and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. Moana came back happy. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to other pet parents!
