Dog Walking, Pet Sitting, Dog Boarding
About Lily's Pad Pet Care LLC

​Jen Gambino, the founder of Lily's Pad Pet Care, has always had a passion for animals. Born and raised in Astoria, Queens, she was the kid who picked up any homeless animals (dogs, birds, cats, etc.) and found them a loving home. After working in the corporate world for several years, she decided to pursue her dream of working with animals full time.

Today, she continues giving back by fostering dogs in her free time with Friends with Four Paws and Muddy Paws Rescue, assisting in finding abandoned dogs their forever homes. She also volunteers with dogs at Bideawee in Manhattan and BARC shelter in Brooklyn. 

Jen has her certification in Dog Obedience Training and Pet CPR & First Aid through Animal Behavior College. Dog training will be available as a service in addition to walking, pet sitting, and dog boarding soon. Stay tuned!

In March 2018, Lily's Pad NYC obtained another local pet care business, Dog Liberty, so now we can help service a broader geographic span of Astoria and Long Island City!

​Who is Lily?
​
​She is Jen's dog, of course! Lily is a certified Good Dog Foundation therapy dog who welcomes foster dogs and friendly canine visitors of all ages, shapes, and sizes into her home. Lily and Jen have worked in assistive living facilities, such as the Forest Hills Atira, to bring comfort and joy to those who need it. They've worked in environments with large groups of dogs, people, and kids to make sure they have good social skills in any situation together.

​Side by side, Lily and Jen make dogs feel at home when they stay with them and would do the same for your family member too! We look forward to working with you.​

Dog Walking

Working all day? Taking a day trip? Sick in bed and can't get up? Give us a call. We'll be there to walk your dog when you can't.

Pet Sitting

Leaving town for a few days and can't bring your best friend(s) with you? Have a new puppy that can't go outside yet? Have a cat who needs some love? We can stop by to check-in, or even stay overnight to provide your pet some TLC.

Dog Boarding

Love the idea of Lily being your dog's new best friend while you're away? Bring your companion to our home! We'll be happy to make them feel like they're on vacation too!
