Your Fur Babies Home Away from Home
Pet care experience
I’ve always had an affinity for animals. I am currently a cat mom and pro bono, on call dog sitter and walker to all of my friends’ dogs for the past 4 years. My experience includes frequent walks, overnight stays, grooming (nail trims, baths, and brushes). I’ve hosted older dogs and younger/ high energy dogs and understand the experience needs to be tailored to fit your baby’s needs. Therefore meet and greets will always be encouraged and complementary. I look forward to getting to know you and your fur baby 😊 **New Client Requirement** For overnight boarding you’re pet must be child friendly, non aggressive, and social. I babysit my 7yo sister often and want to keep in mind everyone’s safety.
Reviews
Look no further, Zainab is one of the most reliable, thoughtful, caring individuals we’ve been blessed with. Always on time, communicates/ responsive, plays with our pup, follows directions. We know our pup loves her when he goes crazy every time he sees her. Highly recommended!
My girls were happy and safe.
Zainab is great, would definitely recommend and will continue to use moving forward.
Zainab was absolutely amazing with my golden-doodle Marley! This was my first time using the app and I was super nervous about it but she was so patient and understanding. Marley was super shy with her and he has separation anxiety but she went above and beyond to make him comfortable. She sent me tons of videos and photos of him the entire time she was dog sitting him and FaceTimed me as well. Followed all instructions on his food schedule and bedtime schedule. Was mindful of his allergies. Took him outside to run and play, plenty of walks, very careful and affectionate with him. I would definitely book again and would not use anyone else!! I am so grateful I found her through this app.

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I highly encourage meet and greets before in order to understand your baby’s needs. I like to discuss preferred walking routes and am very mindful of any allergens/ sensitivities. I have one cat who is friendly with guests, but because my father lives close by I can have him moved over there during stays if that may cause any issues. Routine photo and message updates will be provided and I am happy to chat or FaceTime. Because I work from home I will always present and with your fur baby.
Home
Information Zainab K. would like to know about your pet
Any sensitivities or allergens? How does your dog socialize with humans? Other dogs? Cats? Any favorite toys or treats? Do they experience separation anxiety? The more information the better. I’d love to know all the little quirks about your baby. There are no right or wrong or even desirable answers to these questions but I like to be prepared.
A typical day
Our morning would start off with a walk around the neighborhood where your baby can explore the new smells and get mental stimulation. This will be followed by brekkie and lots of scratches and pats. Around lunch I like to take and extended break for a longer walk. Depending on your dog’s size there are a couple dog parks to choose from near me where your baby can interact with other dogs. This is when I like to physically exercise your baby so in addition to playing at the park we can do runs. I always pack water, balls, and treats. We’ll head back home for some much needed rest and eventually some dinner. Right before bed there will be another walk to end the day!

Availability
I work a hybrid schedule and am home almost everyday of the week. Because of this flexibility I can provide walking services at almost all hours of the day. I am an active/ fit person so long walks, park trips and even runs for the more rambunctious fur babies are all possible!
