About: Hi there. I’m Zack. I have always had a passion for animals, along with our family having our own. I have been dog walking/house-sitting for 5 years now, and let me just say, it’s one of the best jobs in the world for someone who has a deep attachment to animals. They are part of our lives from the day they come home. You can always rely on me giving them all the care and love they need, and anything you request or need additionally for their wellbeing, don’t ever hesitate to ask twice. I started off caring for animals after a dear friend recommended me to a very sweet couple in need of this. They worked full time jobs and needed a dog walker 5 days a week. I started doing that and from there, built up my clientele. It’s just amazing to be able to work with these dear furry friends. I’m always there for them and you. Thank you.
About: I’ve always had a love for animals since I was a child. I used to bring home strays even though I would get in trouble for it. I’ve babysat dogs for friends and family in the past. I also used to be a dog groomer at Petsmart. One rainy morning on my way to work, I saw a chihuahua mix on the side of the road. I parked my car about 10 feet away from her. She was shaking and had a look of despair. I gently scooped her up and put her in my passenger seat. I noticed her leg was broken so I skipped work and took her to the vet. I took her home with me and cared for her until she healed. Today, she is the happiest and chunkiest chihuahua I’ve ever seen. She’s living her best life with my mom. I’m a mother of 2 but my babies are in daycare during the week. I do not work a full time job, I’m very flexible! For check ins: I will make sure your fur baby is fed. I will, of course, give lots of affection. Take them out on walks and let them explore. Make sure their area is clean and tidy.
