About Us
My Story
Founding CJ Walks is the first step towards fully living out my passion. After leaving my favorite job as a pack walker with Woofs and Wags for a corporate 9–5, I’m thrilled to be returning to what I love most—providing reliable, high-quality care for your pets. I've owned animals my whole life; from cats, to dogs, to hermit crabs! Animals have always been a huge joy in my life. When I'm not hanging out with animals, I'm fueling my creative side with sewing and writing.
My goal is to provide the service you can depend on and be the walker and pet sitter your pet eagerly waits for at the door each day. I'm fully insured, I’m certified in pet first aid and CPR, and I’ll soon be studying to become a professional dog trainer. Based in the heart of Bay Ridge, I look forward to exploring the neighborhood each day with your furry friends!

Pet Sitting
In-home care is offered everyday depending on availability. Rates are subject to adjustment based on need. Additional pets are +$10. Holidays are +15 dollars a day but are not guaranteed. I don't offer boarding at this time.
Hourly/Drop-In Visits
This is a good option for low maintenance pets. These visits include feeding, walking, playtime, etc. but I would not stay at your house for the duration.
Full Day Rate - With Pop-Outs
This is best for slightly higher maintenance pets. I would stay at your home to provide care, including overnight. This option acknowledges that I will be popping out for other walks during the day, errands, etc. but my primary attention will be on your pet. Contact to secure this service ASAP for the best availability.
30 Minute Drop-In: $20
60 Minute Drop-In: $35
$120 per 24 hour period
Full Day Rate - Limited Leaving
This is an option for pets that need round the clock company either due to special needs or your preference. Housebound care is priced to reflect missed walking work and availability. This is a specialized service and I require advanced notice for this kind of booking, as well as a detailed meet and greet that outlines expectations.
$225 per 24 hour period
