Highlights
Pet care experience
Full time dog care for your pets!
My name is Ghazal (like a puzzle with a G!) and pet sitting is my job so your pet will get 100% of my attention. No kennels, no leaving the dog along for hours, no unnecessary crating. I offer day care, boarding, and house sitting. I can also accommodate solo care/boarding - just let me know what you prefer! When I’m caring for pets, I ensure that they are sticking to their routines and that means consistent meal times, walks, and ample cuddles. My goals are that your pet should be safe, comfortable, and happy. I've sat 20+ small to large dogs in my neighborhood, and have also fostered a pup and understand that some dogs need more space, some need more attention - I’m flexible in accommodating that.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Ghazal was amazing, she took amazing care of Lyla! Ghazal would send us pictures and let us know how she was doing every day. We felt at ease seeing the pictures and seeing how much fun Lyla was having. Would definitely recommend Ghazal to anyone.
Wonderful experience with this dog walker highly recommend
Ghazal is fantastic. She understands dogs really well. Before our first day care she had a meet n greet with my dog and made sure she had all the crucial information about him (not everyone is so diligent about all the little needs of every dog). Gabru easily got on with her as soon as they met. She took really good care of Gabru, gave us regular updates, was very responsive on the app and also very flexible with pick up and drop off. It was a perfect experience for us. Gabru never looked stressed with her. I am looking forward to having Gabru board with her.
My dog Lenny had the best time with Ghazal! Also, love all the pics I received during his visit :-)
Ghazal is amazing at accompanying and taking care of Rosie! She ends updates regularly to let me rest assure of Rosie’s status.
Loving, Attentive, Trustworthy, and Caring Princess had a great time with Ghazal and her husband! I could tell when I picked her up that not only was it a good fit but they both enjoyed their time together which meant so much to me. My girl only smiles like that when it’s real so it made my heart beam with joy knowing how much you liked each other. Thank you for the meet and greet the day before, accommodating a last minute request, excellent communication, the photos, being so flexible and patient. You are a dream sitter. We would definitely hire you again if you will have us.

Schedule
I currently work from home so there is plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I like to understand the pet's routine and do my best to minimize disruptions - that means helping them adhere to their walk, food, and rest times. I love playing with dogs so I prioritize that time.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home is well maintained and clean, pets will have full access to the large open concept living room & kitchen - this is where I spend majority of my waking hours as well. No other pets and no kids in the house so your dog will have a lot of quiet, peaceful time. I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood with lots of green spaces. Lots of opportunities to go on nice walks and socialize with other dogs. I think of dog walks as "their time" so they get ample time to explore and sniff. In client's home, I like to follow the systems set up by the client. That includes going on walk routes that the pet prefers, socializing them with the same friends - the goal being minimal schedule and structure disruption.
A typical day
Physical activities would includes playing fetch, tug, going on long & explorative walks - letting the dog sniff everything without rushing them! I have a set of dog toys that any dog is welcome to play with. I also like to give them mental stimulation with simple tricks like hiding treats in a blanket and having them figure it out.
