Information Itay Z. would like to know about your pet

I like to know their routine, feeding schedule, medical needs, personality, favorite activities, and any special instructions or behaviors. Most importantly, I always follow the owner’s instructions to make sure their pet receives the care they’re used to.

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I always start by following the owner’s instructions and making sure I understand their pet’s routine, needs, I love spending quality time with pets through activities they enjoy, whether that’s going for walks, playing fetch or tug-of-war, practicing simple commands for mental stimulation, playing with their favorite toys, or simply relaxing together and giving them plenty of attention and affection. My goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owner is away

Dependable Pet Care You Can Trust🐾

Pet care experience

For more than 20 years, I’ve been caring for dogs of all ages, and my love for animals began in childhood. I’ve had the joy of raising and caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, giving each one the patience, attention, and love they deserve. I’m dependable, always on time, and committed to providing exceptional care with kindness and compassion. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, companionship, medication, special nutritional care, or extra attention because of age or health, you can trust they’ll be treated like family. In addition to my experience with dogs, I’ve also rescued cats and helped raise litters of kittens, giving me confidence caring for cats of all ages as well. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind, knowing your beloved pet is receiving the highest level of care.

Itay watched my 4 dogs (German shepherd/ malinois mix, Bernese mt dog, Swiss shepherd, and black lab) and cat. Not only did they get taken care of but so came back to them BETTER behaved! Itay was communicative and so sweet. Highly recommend using his services! We can’t wait to use him again during our next getaway :)

I've had the pleasure of knowing Itay for years, and I can confidently say he's one of the most caring and dependable people I know. He has a natural connection with animals and treats every pet as if they were his own. He's patient, responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoys spending time with them. Any pet owner would be lucky to have Itay looking after their furry family member. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and reliable.

Itay is the BEST! Could not have had a better experience! He arrived right on time, followed all my instructions and confirmed all my doors were locked. Leo was so happy and I think he especially enjoyed that his water bowl was cleaned and refreshed. He even spent extra time with my baby!

I have known Itay for five years! He has watched my Golden Retriever in the past and is a very thoughtful caregiver. I know he has a huge shepherd dog who is very sweet and the best behaved dog out there. He also trained the dog since he was a puppy. Itay is a natural animal lover, and the best part? The animals love him right back. Itay has experience managing one of the nicest steakhouses where he is from and when he took care of my dog, that professional experience really shined through. There's no one I'd trust more with my beloved animals than Itay!
