đś Who We Are:
Since 2010, weâve been one of NYCâs premier solo dog walking servicesâwe walk one pup at a time (unless a client has multiple dogs) and keep walker assignments consistent, so both our dogs and our humans form lasting, loving bonds. We value trust, reliability, and long-term relationships, which is why we're looking for people who can commit to at least **9 months**. If you're looking for a short-term gig or a filler job, no hard feelingsâbut this wonât be the right fit.

đ Who You Are:
Youâre not just a dog loverâyouâre a responsible, reliable, weather-proof walker with a strong work ethic and love for all breeds and sizes. You're great at communicating, a true self-starter, and love the idea of working independently without needing micro-management.
âď¸ You must be available MondayâFriday, 11amâ4pmâthis is a non-negotiable requirement.
âď¸ Personal dog care experience is essential, though professional experience is a plus!
âď¸ Rain, snow, heatwaves? You're not afraid of NYC weather if it means hanging out with a happy pup.
