About Urban Dog Care NYC

Urban Dog Care NYC works from St Nicholas Avenue in Harlem, and its published service list separates daily walks, dog sitting, and training and consultation, plus backup walks for independent walkers.

The training offer

Training and consultation is a named service with its own page. What is unusual is how the owner, Logan Grendel, describes where his approach came from: he names Patricia McConnell, Jean Donaldson, Karen Pryor and Pat Miller as the writers he learned from, and describes running three training sessions a day with his own dog covering basic obedience, tricks and some agility. That is a specific and checkable lineage rather than a generic claim.

The care model

The program is pitched at the difference between a walk and a day: the argument the site makes is that a dog needs mental as well as physical work, and the company builds enrichment into the routine rather than only covering distance.

Who it suits

An uptown owner who wants daily care from someone who can also work on behavior, and who prefers an operation the size of an independent walker with the reliability of a larger one — which is exactly how the company positions itself.

Practical detail

Policies, testimonials, a booking route and a team page are all published, along with competitive pricing and a low delivery fee.
