I Just Love Them All!”
At RuffCity, we understand that your furry friends are more than just pets - they are family members. That's why we're dedicated to providing exceptional, personalized care to dogs and cats in Manhattan. As experienced dog owners and lovers, we know what it takes to give your pet the attention and care they deserve.
Our Story
Founded in 2010, RuffCity was born out of a need for private dog-walking services in New York City. Our founders, Heather and Stacia, realized that there was a gap in the market for a personalized dog-walking service that prioritized the individual needs of each pup. With a passion for animals and a desire to make a difference, they set out to create a company that would provide consistent and personal care to dogs in Manhattan.
Our Team
Our team is made up of life-long animal lovers and owners who are dedicated to the well-being of the pups in our care. Every member of our team is an official RuffCity employee, not an independent contractor. We believe in building strong, long-term bonds with our furry clients and their owners. Our team is comprised of experienced dog walkers, cat lovers, and animal enthusiasts who are passionate about providing the highest level of care to every pup in our care.
Meet Our Founders
Heather, our downtown founder, grew up surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes. She realized that there was a void in her life after leaving college, and that's when she discovered her love for dogs. Stacia, our uptown founder, also grew up surrounded by animals and knew that her passion was to make a difference in the lives of animals.
Meet Our Team
Our team members are carefully selected for their warm, caring, intelligent, and fun personalities. Each member of our team has been fully trained and is committed to providing exceptional care to every pup in our care.
Our Services
At RuffCity, we believe that every pup deserves individualized care. That's why we offer private dog walks, tailored to the specific needs of each pup. Our walkers are dedicated to providing fresh air, exercise, and bonding experiences for every pup in our care.
Your Pup's Happiness is Our Goal
We believe that every pup deserves to have their day tailored to their individual needs. That's why we offer personalized dog walking services, complete with regular updates after each walk. Our goal is to make sure every pup feels loved, cared for, and happy.
