Tristan C – Uptown

I’m Tristan (they/them), and I’m originally from Asheville, North Carolina! I’ve also spent a few years in Western Massachusetts for Undergrad, and for the past 4 years I’ve been soaking up life in NYC (Brooklyn, to be exact!). I am an artist and writer at heart who loves performing, making playlists, singing karaoke, reading memoirs, and watching B-horror or arthouse films! I am a lover of many things, and a student for life. 🙂

From the age of 4, I was given the gift of companionship when my mother gifted me my first dog on Christmas. He was the sweetest miniature Shetland Sheepdog named King. Since then, I’ve grown up with 5 dogs of my very own, not including all of the foster dogs and cats my mother would take under her wing! From High School onward, I’ve pet sat for numerous family members, teachers, friends, friends of friends, and also for those through just word-of-mouth. 🙂

I’m at my happiest when I’m hanging out with dogs — going on long walks, playing tug-of-war, or just being a good cuddle buddy to each other. They bring me immense joy, and I love getting to know each and every one’s individual quirks. I don’t have a dog of my own (yet!), and so I am super excited to be working with the RuffCity team in order to take care of your sweet pup as if it were my own!
