Hi! My name is Sara, and I'm a student studying global health. I have 2 dogs of my own (Cockapoos), whom I love to the ends of the earth. In the past, I have volunteered at old age homes with my dogs to provide animal therapy. In my 10 years of experience working with my own dogs-- one who is partially paralyzed and incontient and the other who is bouncing-off-the-walls energetic--I've learned a lot about how to care for animals. I'd love to get to know your pup!
I've loved animals since I was very young. I got most of my experience from volunteering at the local animal shelter in my hometown in NC, and I also owned a pit bull around that time. Since moving to NY 6 years ago, I've worked with my family's and neighbors' pets, breeds such as yorkies, Shih Tzus, poodles, pit bulls, and labs.

Although White Plains, New York has a year-round population of about 58,000, this top-ranked city is a hub for local business and infrastructure; in fact, the weekday population of the city is estimated to be around 250,000 people! Great news for pet owners - White Plains is full of pet-friendly attractions and events just waiting for you and Fido.
White Plains Bark Park is the local dog park, noted for it's large size - over 14,000 square feet of space to let your pooch off-leash! Separate fenced areas offer a chance to accommodate smaller dogs or puppies, as well as the standard doggie bags and water fountains.
Trails in the area are especially abundant, due to White Plains' proximity to numerous lakes and scenic areas. For a long day hike, try the North County Trailway, a paved 22-mile path that offers a close look at the Appalachian Mountains. For something a little rougher, check out one of the unpaved trails, like the Hanover Hiking Trail, which offers 3.5 miles of peaceful nature views. All trails are open to leashed dogs.
Want to meet up with some other pets and owners for a good cause? The Westchester County SPCA hosts an annual Walkathon & Pet Fair. After a beautiful 2.5-mile dog walk around the FDR State Park, enjoy the live music, food (edible treats for both dogs and people), and pet-friendly vendors.
