I started dog-sitting in my hometown of West Chester, Pennsylvania, and after recently graduating, I brought my love for pets with me to New York City. Now based in Kips Bay, I use public transit or Uber to conveniently pick up and care for your furry friends. I treat each pet as if they were my own, providing them with the highest level of care and attention while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands.
Life can get busy, making it difficult to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. With years of experience and a deep love for animals, you can count on me to provide the care your pets need while you're away.
I ensure that your pet receives the best care and attention possible. Their happiness and well-being are my top priority, and I strive to provide the same level of care I would want for my own pets.
Note things are booking FAST! If you know you are going away this holiday season, it's best to schedule with me ASAP to secure your spot.
* Starting September bookings, I will require a $20.00 booking fee for overnight pet services, which will go towards your services *
This will only be taken if you cancel within 2 weeks of your booking.
