Here's a good answer to that question: Pet care is a rewarding part of my daily and weekly routine. I make sure to carve out time each day to engage with the pets I care for, whether it's through walks, playtime, or simple companionship. Since I work from home, I can easily integrate pet care into my schedule, taking breaks to ensure the pet is comfortable, fed, and entertained. I also ensure the pet gets regular outdoor walks, play sessions, and any special attention they need. Whether it's during my lunch breaks or after work, pet care is a priority, and it brings me a lot of joy!

Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I ensure the space is secure and pet-friendly, with no hazards or areas where a pet could get into trouble. I keep the environment calm and peaceful, offering a cozy space where pets can relax. I also maintain a consistent routine for feeding, play, and walks to help pets feel safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure to follow their routine and respect their preferences for care. I always communicate with pet owners about any specific instructions or needs their pet might have. I make sure to secure any doors, gates, and windows and create a safe, welcoming space for their pet to enjoy while they’re away.

Information Azar H. would like to know about your pet

It’s really important to know a few key details about a pet ahead of time to ensure their comfort and well-being while in my care. I like to learn about their daily routine, feeding schedule, any dietary restrictions, and their favorite activities. Knowing if they have any specific medical needs, allergies, or behavior issues helps me provide the best care possible. I also make sure to ask about their preferences—whether they enjoy certain toys, are more relaxed with certain people or environments, and how they typically respond to being left alone. Understanding if they are crate trained or have any specific anxieties, like separation anxiety, allows me to tailor the experience to what makes them feel safe and secure. Overall, clear communication and understanding the pet’s personality and needs ensures a smooth and enjoyable experience for both the pet and me!

A typical day

A typical day with the pets I watch is filled with fun and engagement! In the morning, I start with a refreshing walk to get some exercise and enjoy the fresh air. Afterward, we spend some time playing together, whether it’s fetch, tug-of-war, or just some one-on-one attention with toys they love. I make sure to incorporate plenty of playtime to keep their energy up and spirits high! Throughout the day, I provide companionship and care, ensuring they’re comfortable and happy. If it’s a nice day, we’ll take another walk during my lunch break or explore a nearby park. I also give them time to relax and unwind, ensuring they feel safe and secure. If the pet enjoys cuddling or lap time, we’ll have some calm bonding time in the evening. I always aim to create a balanced day with a mix of play, exercise, and relaxation to make sure they feel loved and entertained!

Love dogs and walking them

Pet care experience

I love taking care of dogs and have enjoyed walking and feeding my family and friends' dogs for several years. They bring me so much joy! Due to my frequent travel for work, I'm unable to have a dog of my own at the moment. I work from home, so your dog and I can keep each other company, take breaks together, and enjoy walks during my lunch breaks. I live in a secure, dog-friendly condo building. While I don't have a backyard, your dog will be very safe and well cared for.

Azar & her partner are amazing with my dog. He’s so happy when I drop him off and pick him up. She is very reliable and so sweet!

Azar was great, as usual! We’ve left Daisy with her a few times now and we’re thankful to have such a caring sitter. Azar is communicative and sent pictures of our fur baby twice just over the weekend. I will definitely use her again!

Azar is so great with our dog Pearl. I’ve booked her multiple times to watch our pup. I trust her completely with my dog and she always does a great job. Pearl loves her. Would recommend for boarding at your home or boarding with Azar at her place. Either way your dog will be in good hands.
