I have been working with Brandon for the past couple of weeks while I have been fostering a puppy, Zen. I cannot say enough good things about him! First off he is great with Zen. He treats Zen as if he’s his own. Brandon has helped build Zen’s leash skills. He very patient with him and encouraging. He sends me great notes about the walks and Zen’s overall behavior. I look forward to working with Brandon with other foster pups or my own. Yours is in good hands when with Brandon. I can’t recommend him enough.

Olivia was great with our two-year old doodle Rosie. Rosie is shy with new people, but Olivia was patient and kind and Rosie warmed up to her quickly. Olivia was also very responsive, responsible, and timely, despite a last-minute request on our end. I would definitely recommend her.

We feel very lucky to have her and appreciate the time and care she takes with Honey each day. I high recommend Alanna if you're looking for someone to walk or care for your animal!

Juan has been an amazing dog walker, and my corgi absolutely loves him. He is reliable, trustworthy, and always accommodating when scheduling changes come up. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with, and I always feel confident knowing my pup is in good hands. Juan is friendly, professional, and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog walker.

About: Hi! I am a premed neurology researcher on the Upper West Side looking to support my application fees. I currently have a medium-sized dog named Alfie who I take on long walks everyday in Central Park (only 2 blocks from my apartment). I grew up with pomeranians and fostering large and small dogs so I am familiar with different temperaments and sizes. I am currently waiting to start my new position so I am available to care for your furry family member at your convenience. Once I begin my role, I only work three days a week so I can still walk your dog then as well. I have a 40-lb Keeshond who is very friendly and loves to play. If you are looking for boarding, my dog will be in the apartment as well but I can make sure they get acclimated.

About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for and training both dogs and cats, so being around animals just feels natural to me. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’ve cared for everything from high energy puppies to anxious dogs and sweet senior pets. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to focus on pet care. I live an active lifestyle and enjoy going on regular walks, so I’m able to provide dogs with consistent exercise, attention, and outdoor time. I take pride in creating a safe, caring, and reliable experience for every pet I look after. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment that matches each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully, and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection throughout the day.

I can’t recommend her enough! This was a last-minute booking, and even though I accidentally submitted the wrong address, she was incredibly understanding, flexible, and went out of her way to accommodate us. She was patient, communicative, and made the entire process completely stress-free. Most importantly, my dog warmed up to her right away and was happy and comfortable in her care, which gave me so much peace of mind. She clearly has a natural connection with animals and genuinely cares about their well-being. I’m so grateful she was able to help on such short notice. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, trustworthy, and truly great with dogs, I would absolutely recommend her. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Kate was amazing with Luna. She was quick to respond when we sent out first message asking if she could walk Luna. Luna loved her and came back fairly tired, which I believe is the best type of walk possible. Could not ask for anything more.

They took great care of him and sent plenty of happy photos and updates during their time together. I felt very comfortable knowing that our dog was spending time with caring pet people and hope they can spend time with him again soon!
