I’m Claire, and I grew up in New Jersey and then moved to the city around 3 years ago to go to art school. In my free time, I love biking – it is my absolute favorite way to explore and see the city 🙂

I have always loved dogs! I have been walking and pet sitting dogs and cats for friends and neighbors for years and it has made me comfortable with dogs of all types, sizes, and energy levels. During the Pandemic, my family adopted a Cocker Spaniel/Poodle puppy named Dewey Being in lockdown, we spent all the time we could training and playing with him! Since then, Dewey has grown up to be the most loveable dog, always excited to meet new people and eat his next meal (although he is a bit lazy ;)).

All this to say, I know how important your pets are to you! Even when they are full grown they are still our babies. They are always there for us, to make us smile. I am so happy to be a part of the RuffCity team and have the opportunity to meet, play, and take care of your furry friends!
