• Over 4 years’ experience in handling animals and pets
• Free of allergies from animal hair/dander

When I take my pets for walks, I enjoy first taking them around their neighborhood to help them feel more comfortable. Afterwards, I like to spend time in a area they may not have encountered to give a little adventure to the walk.

I've always love dogs since I was child. I've been fortunate enough to own all types, including rottweiler, Yorkie, pug and a shiatsu.

About Samantha

5 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
We are Sam and Appa, best friends since 2011.!

I'm 26 years old and work from home as freelance graphic designer.

Appa is 5 years old, neutered, and is not food or toy aggressive. In fact, he's quite forward when he first meets your dog. He's super affectionate and loves to play chase.

Our schedule is pretty flexible. We are primarily looking to provide the service of keeping your dog company, well fed and exercised. We're excited to hang out with your loved one while you're away. Having fun is our specialty!

We've been fortunate to not have to experience any health issues so I'm not so experienced with special needs or medication distribution. There is an animal hospital near my home for emergencies.

For any special or custom arrangements, questions or concerns, feel free to message us.

You're PAWsome!

About Kalena

2 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
Hi there! My name is KD, and I've been a professional dog walker and pet sitter in New York City for the better part of a year. I've recently moved here to Jersey City, and am now offering my services in dog walking, pet sitting and home visits for a variety of animals.

I love dogs of all sizes, one of my favorite dog walking experiences was with a large Great Dane, who people were wary of as we walked down the street but soon came to learn was just a gentle giant. I do not turn certain breeds away! I think that's really unfair and generalizing. I've also cared for cats, birds, fish, and turtles (feeding and cleaning litter/cage) in their owner's homes, so I have some experience with that, but the bulk of my experience is of course with the doggos.
I have cared for a puppy who was just learning how to transition from puppy pads to going outside, and I've walked my share of hardcore leash pullers (a pair of huskies once seemed to think I was their sled, and it was their job to pull me to the park! But we worked it out.)

If you live near enough to a dog run, and you're comfortable with it, you can bet I'll be out there with your pup playing fetch and racing to the other side of the fence! When pet sitting, I like to make sure that your pet is comfortable with me, and has everything they need to feel safe and taken care of until you return.

Drop me a line if you'd like to book with me, K.D.!

About Harvey

5 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
I am new to the big apple and was looking to make some extra cash when I discovered I can do just that while you let me walk your dogs! I still can't believe it! You mean I will get paid for doing the best thing in the world? Count me in!!!

On a serious note, I have owned a brittany spaniel myself, and fostered dogs for 2 years from local shelters in Kansas City. I have also helped a number of my friends train and care for dogs from puppies to adults rescued from shelters. I can feed, walk, clean, groom your dogs and that would be the highlight of my day.

If it shows as unavailable for the dates you need, you can still send me a message as sometimes I am able to work with requests and I can also work on short notices.

About Krystle

4 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
**About me**
I am a full time teacher. I always grew up with pets especially dogs and cats. I also have been a pet sitter for a few years now so I have experience with other people's pets.

**About my home/services**
I will be offering the service of going to the owners home when needed to care for their pet. I am perfect for the needed pet sitter for a weekend getaway or vacation.

**About my neighborhood**
The neighborhood is fairly quite. The dog would be walked on the sidewalk. There is a park within walking distance that I could take the dog to.

**What to expect**
Being that I am a dog lover, I would play with the dog as well as try to keep the dog active by going on walks or taking the dog to go play at the park.

**Special rules or requests**
I would like a dog that is trained, such as barking when needs to go out. Depending on the situation and location is whether it would be better to care for the dog at my own home or the owners home.

About Beejal

8 Years Experience Caring For Dogs
**About me**
I am a 33 y/o young professional that is looking to make some extra money. I love dogs, had a family dog growing up, and now have one of my own. I understand the extent to which they become part of the family and how difficult it is to trust a stranger with their wellbeing. I am committed to providing the best care possible to your beloved pet.

**About my home/services**
During my walks, I will solely service your dog. All my attention will be focused on making the experience a pleasant one for all parties involved. This means, no cell phones, music, or other forms of media as distractions.

Schedules for overnight stays and check-ins will be discussed and mutually agreed upon prior to the dates of service.

**About my neighborhood**
I live near the waterfront in Paulus Hook, Jersey City, within walking distance of both Van Vorst and Hamilton dog parks. I have easy access to both the boardwalk and the grassy open land near the ferry and I am also within walking distance of Liberty State Park. All gorgeous areas for a pup out on the town!

**What to expect**
Dogs can expect a lot of cuddles, long walks, runs (if necessary), fetch, and tug-of-war games with me. All activities are tailored to your personal preference and to what your pup enjoys!

**Special rules or requests**
To ensure the safety of all involved, I request that no dog be larger than 40lbs. Also, all breeds are welcome, but dogs must not have any behavioral issues that are uncontrollable, regardless of size.
