McKayla T.
Hi! I’m McKayla! In the past 4 years, I have cared for a few dogs, a couple of pit bulls, a jack russel and a mastiff, in my family or for family friends. I love the joy dogs bring to the lives of those around them which inspired me to start dog walking! Outside of that, I’m an undergraduate student on a gap semester studying Forensic Psychology and an afterschool preschool teacher. My empathetic and compassionate personality leads me to work in areas where I care for others. I’m excited to utilize my skill set caring for your fur babies!

Noëlle Marie Z.
Hi! I’m Noëlle. I’ve spent years around dogs and cats of all sizes and ages —from energetic puppies to sweet seniors—through hands-on experience with dog walking, pet sitting, and helping care for animals in different settings. While I’ve never had a pet of my own, I’ve been trusted time and again to look after others’ beloved companions, and it’s become something I genuinely love doing whenever I have the chance. I’m here to give your pets the care and attention they need, when they need it. I’m patient, observant, and committed to understanding each pet’s unique personality, routine, and preferences. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle break, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. And of course, I’m happy to send as many photo updates as you’d like! Can’t wait to meet you and your furry friend!

Carissa H.
Hi! My name is Carissa, and I'm a freelance artist, avid gamer, and lifelong animal lover! As a Long Island native, moving to Brooklyn and being a dog walker has been a dream come true. Nothing recharges the creative batteries like stretching my legs, getting some fresh air, and spending time with dogs; my own little one included. Samwise, my throwback (dire) pomeranian, has been at my side for four years. The animal companion to my ranger, he's as keen, loyal, and stout-hearted as his namesake. He, and all the wonderful dogs that were part of my life growing up, have taught me that they're so much more than pets-- they're family. The epitome of unconditional love, they are deeply empathetic and ever true; deserving nothing short of our very best. As a walker, I strive to provide just that!

Hi! My name is Lydia and I’m a fashion designer who loves dogs. I grew up with a goldendoodle and his chocolate lab best friend. I was also the go-to pet sitter for family and friends.

Bryana L.
Hi!! My name is Bryana. I grew up around dogs and have owned a few. I had a white boxer for 8 years he was the most hyper dog ever and would never leave my side. I genuinely love being around animals, especially dogs. As someone who has been an owner I understand the importance of making sure your pet is in the best care possible, I have been a pet sitter and dog walker previously and I treat the animals around me with the most care as if they were my own.

Robert Y.
Hi, I am Robert. I have been a dog lover my whole life. Over the last 25 years I have owned a Miniature Schnauzer for 18 years and presently own as pictured Paul the Poodle for the past 7 years. Paul the Poodle is a rescue dog with special needs. He needs nurturing with anxiety issues and he has a sensitive digestive system. Meals are a special mix and have to be administered in small increments. My wife and I jointly own and love him. Outside of the dog world I am an avid record collector and D.J. Rest assured your dog will be safe and well taken care of as I do for my own.

Erin G.
Hi, I’m a 23-year-old animal and language lover from Ireland. Growing up on a rural, dairy farm, dogs were always part of the family, they almost had a seat at the dinner table! Caring for animals has been second nature to me from a young age. From 17 to 20, I worked hands-on with a variety of animals, from raccoons, meerkats, porcupines, to monkeys, which enhanced my love for all types of animals. Dogs, though, have always held a special place in my heart. I would be grateful for the chance to care for your beloved pets, giving them the same love, attention, and respect I’d give my own.

Bryan N.
Hi, I’m Bryan and I have interacted with cats and dogs all my life. I take care of my local cat and I feed her every day. I also love dogs too. I have experience taking care of numerous breeds of dogs with varying personalities and I love to care for them. I like to figure out how dogs behave, as I understand every dog is different so that I can best take care of them according to their needs.

Karina C.
Hi, I’m Karina! I grew up on a farm in Brazil with 12 dogs and 4 cats, where I cared for animals from a young age and developed a deep passion for their well-being. I bring that same dedication to every dog I walk, making sure they feel safe, happy, and understood. I’m reliable, gentle, and always pay close attention to each pup’s unique needs. With me, your dog will be in caring, experienced hands.

Destiny P.
Hi, my name is Destiny, and I live in Queens. I'm a huge animal lover, and I enjoy taking care of animals of all shapes and sizes. My love for animals increases my passion to pursue a career in the zoology field. I recently earned my bachelors degree, my goal is to keep getting experience in animal care and have the pleasure to interact with different animal species.Throughout my life, I always had different types of pets. Growing up, I adored them all so much and enjoyed nurturing them. All the animals I've had were not just pets to me but part of my family. My last animal companion was a dog, his name was Panda and he's a japanese spaniel. Seeing his cute face with those big eyes always made me smile. He was very friendly, loved going out for walks, and would get excited whenever someone opened the front door. Sadly, I had to give him up to another family due to a living situation. It was heartbreaking, but the time we been together was great. I loved the bond we had and he brought so much joy into my life. My experience with Panda just made me love dogs more and want to  have more experience in dog care. I've had years of experience in caring for domesticated animals and I also have experience in pet sitting my family's dogs and cats. I helped walk their dogs for them. Im always the go to whenever my family and friends needs help with their animals. I treat everyone's pets as if they were part of my family and make sure they're well cared for. I like to walk alot, travel, play games, and do photography (mostly of animals). I'm eager to learn new things and I'm excited to meet and interact with your dogs!
