About NYC POOCH:

NYC POOCH is proud to be New York City’s most loved dog walking service. Over the last fourteen years, we’ve grown from a couple of leash-wielding dog aficionados into New York City’s finest canine companions, based on the idea of integrity and personalized care – not just for our clients, but also for their best friends. We’re a team of fully trained professional NYC dog walkers and NYC dog runners who love what we do and do it better than anyone else!
