Chloe C. 		Hello, my name is Chloe and I love dogs! I am 22 years old and have been working with animals all my life. Whether it was taking care of family pets, or pet sitting for my neighbors, I have always enjoyed being around them! I have been with Swifto since 2021 and have completed over 1,695 dog walks in the last two years. I am comfortable working with any breed/size dog (I may be small but I don’t mind a challenge!) I grew up mostly around pitbulls (now one of my favorite type of dogs) but recently I adopted a chihuahua and have fallen in love with them! I currently have five chihuahuas. The first one, Pepper (the one with brown fur), is a girl who I rescued with my roommate. We then rescued another chihuahua, his name is Bean (the one with the white fur). To our surprise though, before Bean could be neutered, Pepper became pregnant and I became a mom to three more chihuahuas! The all grey one is Móle, the mostly grey with white and different colors is Picantè, and the one who looks like a copy of Bean is Falkor (like from The Never Ending Story.) I never thought I would have so many dogs in a short period of time, but I am very thankful for them! I learn new skills and tricks everyday from being with them that help me when it comes to dog walking and working with Swifto. I think dogs make us all better people and I would love to walk and get to know your dogs better!! (:

Davel R. 		Hello, my name is Davel, and I look forward to meeting you and your dog. I have grown up with a variety of them, some I have owned, others through family. I enjoy my time with them and look for ways to continue this. As a recent college graduate, I assure you I am committed to the call when needed and will do my best to get the job done.

Jacqueline C. 		Hello, my name is Jackie, I'm so glad to be part of the Swifto Dog walkers! I have been so fortunate to live my childhood dream of working with Animals for the past 20+ years in Animal Clinics from Veterinary Tech. to Managing the Dog Daycare/Kennel, which has given me the experience working with a variety of different breeds. In my spare time I also took on dog walking/pet sitting jobs which I really enjoyed. I have recently relocated to the New York area from Florida, but I do not mind the city life as I grew up in San Francisco, California. I currently have 3 pups, 2 Toy Poodles Rico and Rosie and our newest rescue a French Bulldog named Jaxson. My goals here are to continue with my passion for Animals thru working and volunteering and continuing with my hobbies of camping, kayaking, photography, hiking and reading.

I moved to NYC five years ago to follow my love for music and photography. While I pursue my dreams I have worked day jobs in customer service but during the quarantine I realized I needed a change. I asked myself what makes me happy, which was easy answer, dogs! I care for all dogs as if their my own and I would be more than happy to the get the chance to love and care for your canine companion.

I’ve owned a pure breed cocker spaniel for 18 years her name was Lady from the Disney movie Lady and the tramp. I now own a 5 year old toy poodle Jupi :-) she is my world. I’ve worked in two animal hospitals and interned at another I always wanted to help animals. My best friend owns three pit bulls that she’s had since puppies and I watch, walk, feed and play with them while she goes away on vacation. I am very family oriented, down to earth free spirit animal myself! ☺️:-)

Daniela B. 		Hi my name is Daniela Bayona and I am 24 years old. Right now I am practicing to be a tattoo artist. I have a 2 year old American pit bull terrier and a 7 year old cat. I would love to take care of all pets!

Dora R. 		Hi my name is Dora. I have grown up around dogs my whole life. From the age of 4 to 16 I had a Shih Tzu named Misty. I currently have an 8 year old Pekapoo. Many family members of mine have always had dogs from Shih Tzu's, Yorkie's, Pitbulls, and more. I have walked dogs as a living. I've walked dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a dog enjoying their walk or play time and even meal time. I love being around animals more than anything and I look forward to getting to know you and your pets.

Julian m. 		Hi my name is Julian. Currently, I'm a graduate Student in bilingual math education. Since I was a child I loved dogs. Now I have two. Theo is a half Japanese Chin and half Maltese. Murdock is a Black Mouth Cur. He's still a young and acts like a two year old boy. I love to read and draw. On weekends you can find me with the family in the park or hiking.

kathleen a. 		Hi my name is kathleen but go by the name of Katt, I've always been intrigued with working with animals specifically with dogs and cats. I've co parent my ex's pit bull (drama) and she was the main reason why I wanted to pursue a job with dog walking. Taking care of drama was like raising a fury child and it was an extraordinary experience. It taught me how to be responsible, intuitive, and knowledgeable. I had to do my research based on her breed just to take better care of her and understand her needs. Having a pet in general isn't like buying a new toy, there's a lot of work and responsibilities that comes with it, along with mental and emotional understanding. With that being said it actually lead me to my holistic healing journey. I've been studying holistic healing for humans and animals and thats something that I've been working on and very passionate about. I've been practicing different modalities trying to figure out what works best and teach others who are interested in healing their life in a more natural and Spiritual approach.

Liam L. 		Hi my name is Liam and i’ve been a dog walker for 4 years now, not only in New York but in Argentina as well. I have dogs and cats all my life. I absolutely love walking, and taking care of dogs, they are just so fascinating to me and fun. My first dog was a labrador when i was kid, he sadly isn’t with us anymore, but now our new member of the family is a beautiful little poodle named Leona. I will 100% commit to your dogs and make them have the funnest and safest walk’s possible

Nevaeh F. 		Hi my name is Nevaeh, I am a 20yr old College students who loves fur babies and has owned a Siberian husky and Poodle. I also have experience with cats as well. I currently own 2 cats named Pepper and Macy. This job works perfectly for me because walking the dog not only benefits both mental and physical health of the dog but for me as well. Animals are a stress reliever for me and taking a nice calm walk just lowers my stress levels even more. I am grateful to be blessed with the opportunity to bond with other fur babies. I treat my own animals with love, care, & tenderness and I promise I’ll do the same with yours.

Susannah V. 		Hi my name is Susannah. I am a cheerful and positive person. I love animals especially cats and dogs. I have experience with both cats and dogs. I myself have both cats and a dog at home! I am also experienced with giving meds. I hope I get a chance to meet you and your dog.

Anna H. 		Hi there! I may be new to New York but I'm not new to spoiling your pet. Dogs have been part of my life since birth and I can't imagine life without them. Outside of the three dogs I've owned, I've also foster for my local shelters. Currently, I've fostered 14 cats and dogs over the last year and half. Luckily, all of them found homes as soon as they were ready to leave my home. I have taken care of bottle-fed puppies, nursing mothers, tempermental dogs, and senior dogs. I can administer medication, do basic training and crate train as well. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your dog(s)!
