I’m just here for a new best friend

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Zach. I’m 29 years old and I am a Journeyman Plumber for local 38, San Francisco’s Plumbing Union. I recently moved back to San Rafael after being in San Francisco the past 5 years. I would love to help any and all who need a friend to watch their pet(s). I grew up always having cats and dogs but unfortunately I am not able to take care and house a pet full time at the moment so I am looking for the next best option! I love all animals and treat them as if they are my own. I will gladly help with any service needed- dog walking, house sitting, check in visits, etc. My schedule is consistent and I am home around 1:30pm every day and available any time after! Hopefully I can be of assistance and I look forward to meeting my new best friend. “The more I learn about people, the more I like my dog.” -Mark Twain

Although I booked at the last minute, Zach responded quickly and was very attentive. He kept in touch throughout the entire care and the best part was there was another dog for Whodi to play with. Will definitely book again!

Zach if my go-to Rover, and we’ll use him again to the extent possible. I was a bit hesitant about giving my dogs away for a couple hours but Zach was highly professional and assuaged all concerns. He picked up my dogs on time, early in the morning, dropped them back off on time, and was responsive from booking through drop off.

Zach is the best! My dog, Percy, loves him so much.

I booked Zach to walk my 8 month old puppy, Percy. It was Percy’s first walk with a new person and I was surprised at how well everything went. Zach was very patient, responsible, and took excellent care of my puppy! I hope to book with him again when I go back to work or need a sitter. Thank you, Zach!

Safety, trust & environment

My house will essentially become your dogs. They are free to roam as they please. I have a little backyard that gets plenty of sun throughout the day so while I am at work, they can accompany my gf at her desk or soak up some sun in the backyard. We will go on some type of walk/hike every day when I am home from work. They are free to lounge on our big sofa and cuddle up in bed as well.

Information Zach B. would like to know about your pet

Any and all dogs are welcome! I love all pets so if you have any questions or concerns, please reach out and we can talk!

A typical day

I love exploring and letting the dogs run free (with permission of course) so I tend to shoot for hikes and adventures on trails or open preserves. I love going out to Fairfax or West Marin and finding a new trail and exploring with furry friends. I have quite a few friends and family members with friendly pups so doggy play dates are always available ( again, with permission ?)
