Brooke R.	Hi I’m Brooke Rhoads! I am an animal lover and have owned two black labs.
Jesse K.	Hi I’m Jesse, I’m a very passionate and love able person when it comes to dogs/animals in general. I treat them with love and affection as if they were human beings. I’ve have a good sense of humor and I could be goofy with dogs but also serious at times when necessary. I walk a lot and in great shape so I could handle walking dogs for long periods of time if necessary. In the past I’ve owned a Cocker Spaniel mixed Golden Retriever named Jp and it was the best thing me and my dad ever loved and it was a good tradition that was apart of the family. Unfortunately about 3 years ago it was lost and wasn’t able to retrieve him. Me and my dad both soon want to own another dog when the time is right. I have experience walking small and big dogs and I don’t discriminate with any dog regarding breed, genetics, illness, etc.
Cali H.	Hi my name is Cali! I have been working with animals for 10+ years and I have experience with all types of breeds, sizes, temperaments and special needs. I have some veterinary medicine knowledge and know how to give a variety of different forms of medications. I love my job because it feels less like work and more like fun! In my free time I enjoy spending time in nature, hiking, practicing yoga, learning German and occasionally curling up with a good book! I love staying active and busy!
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.
Emely F.	Hi my name is Emely, born & raised in the big apple. I’m a dog mom of 2, Tokya female mixed Russell terrier & Rocky male Siberian husky. Outside of this, i do photography & videography. On my free time, i care & love for my babies so it’s always a pleasure to share that same comfort for other friend pups & more pets! I grew my experience with self knowledge due to having many pets & different breeds during my time of pet sitting while friends are away & they would recommend me to their friend etc. & myself since a child who had pets from reptiles, cats, dogs you name it!! This is more than a job, it’s a passion made with respect!!
Heather F.	Hi my name is Heather. I have 4 cats named Bailey, Stella, Luna, and Mei. Luna is the long haired black cat in the photo with me. I have been a pet sitter for almost 3 years. One of my customers dubbed me a “cat whisperer” and I’m so proud that I was able to help her kitty come out of her shell!
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.
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)!
Cat L.	Hi there! I'm Cat. Aside from always wanting to do some petting. My experience with animals started when I was young, I've always cared for at least 2 pets at any given time. My passion for animals led me to study animal science in undergrad. (so like please help me use my degree). In addition to basic first aid (of dogs, cats and rabbits) I have completed courses in canine behavior and psychology. I gained hands on skills in numerous methods of training with an emphasis on positive reinforcement. I have even trained my rabbit and my old roommate's cats!! I have worked with many dogs, of varying breeds, sizes, ages and temperaments in both one to one settings and as packs. I have worked with puppies/kittens, senior and special needs pets. I am looking forward to meeting you and your four legged friends!!
Gabriella A.	Hi there! I'm Gabi, a recent graduate of The New School, and for over a decade, I've been happily taking care of dogs and cats, both my own and others'. From walking pups to looking after them overnight, I've pretty much done it all. Whether it's fostering furry friends or just giving them a good stroll, I never get tired of it! I can't wait to meet your furry baby and enjoying some quality time with them!
Filip J.	Hi there! I've been a dog lover my whole life and relish any opportunity to spend time with a friendly furry friend! If someone with a dog is hosting a party, you'll probably find me playing with the dog in a corner while all the other humans are chatting. Having grown up with a dog myself and taken care of many of my friends' dogs while they travel (including senior dogs, and dogs with special medical requirements) I understand the importance of having someone you can trust walking or taking care of your dog. I love breeds big, small, and everything in between, and I really enjoy meeting new dogs and getting to know their personalities. I look forward to meeting you and your dog too!

Kristina P.	Hi there! With over fifteen years of dedicated experience in pet sitting and animal care, I am passionate about providing exceptional care for your furry family members.

Camryn H.	Hi Y'all, My name is Camryn and I'm so excited for the potential to spend time with your animals! I'm a lifelong animal lover who started watching friends and neighbors animals when needed during college as a way to scratch the itch live vicariously through others as a pet owner. Outside of providing safe and reliable services for animal owners, I love to workout and spend time outside. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your animal family soon!
Erin E.	Hi! I'm a lifelong animal-lover and have had pets since I was a child. While I definitely consider myself to be a cat person (I've currently got 2 and am fostering a 3rd who might become a foster fail), I also love dogs....and rabbits, horses, hamsters, snakes, mice, birds, alpacas, etc. Basically, all the animals have a special place in my heart. I enjoy getting to know each pet's personality so I can give them the best care possible. I'm very detail-oriented and work to make sure your pet is well taken care of and that you have peace of mind when you're away from them. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet and I want to help alleviate some of that worry.
Anneliese S.	Hi! I'm Anneliese. I'm from Virginia, grew up with rescue dogs and cats, and moved to New York last year.
