I’m JP, originally from Newburgh, NY, in the Hudson Valley, about an hour north of New York City. I love going on long hikes, camping, and being outdoors observing nature and wildlife. I play a ton of sports, cycle, and love surfing and snowboarding. I recently took advantage of an opportunity to relocate to Manhattan, and I am enjoying every minute of it. I love being around all the hustle and culture of the city. One of my favorite things to do is explore and find all the peaceful little pockets of nature sprinkled throughout the city.

Growing up, I had multiple family dogs of various breeds and sizes, and I was always the go-to dog sitter for family and friends. As a lifelong dog lover, I’m committed to treating your dog as if they were my own. I understand the unique bond between dogs and their humans. Whether your furry friend is a high-energy bundle of joy or a mellow cuddle enthusiast, I’m dedicated to providing them with the love, attention, and exercise they deserve. I tailor each walk to suit your dog’s needs and preferences, ensuring they stay happy and healthy while exploring the city’s diverse neighborhoods.

After moving to Manhattan, I felt like something was missing—and it was having dogs in my life! Needless to say, I am so excited to be a part of the RuffCity Team and I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged companion. I can’t wait to enjoy some walks and adventures with your pup!
