Big guy with a big love for dogs!
Pet care experience
I have taken care of pets for friends and family for my whole life. Growing up, I would check on my neighbors' pets while they were out of town and I have continued that in my adult life. Any time a friend is out of town I am happy to provide pet care services. Furthermore, I have a 6 year old Australian Shepard and I have lived with a number of dogs throughout the years with different roommates. I like to think my specialty is playing with high energy dogs. I have no problem taking dogs to parks around the city in my car to get some energy out either on the leash or playing fetch. I also enjoy walks around the neighborhood if that is more comfortable for the pet and the owner!
Reviews
Zach did an excellent job with my dog, Jericho. He is an Anatolian shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix that can be a handful sometime at 140 pounds. Jericho loved going on walks, hikes, and spending time at the dog parks with Zach and I never had a feeling of worry or angst leaving the responsibility of my best friend to another individual.
Zach has cared for my pet-children many times. He often treats them better than I do by taking them to the park, on a hike, or the dog park whenever they seem restless. He is a true animal lover and a responsible pet walker/sitter!
Zach has taken care of my animals on many occasions and always does an excellent job. I have a senior male German Shepherd that has severe separation anxiety as well as some other health issues from being a rescue. Zach always makes my old boy feel at home when I am not around, which allows me the piece of mind to handle whatever I needed to leave the house for in the first place. I know that he will take loving care of any animal that is entrusted to him, and treat them as his own.
Zach is awesome with dogs! His dog Barley is an Australian Shepherd, so he knows his way around energetic dogs. I've had him look after my family's dog before when we've gone out of town and she loved him, he treated her like his own and I would 100% trust him with any dog!

Safety, trust & environment
Our backyard is protected by fencing from the neighborhood and it is easy to play fetch with the my dog or put him on his lead if I am busy with yardwork. I am comfortable walking any size of dog on a leash and I have never had trouble getting a dog into a crate. My old roommate had a Anatolian Shepard/Great Pyrenees mix that I would crate every time my roommate was work and I needed to leave the house.

Availability
I work full-time Monday through Friday. I typically get home around 5-5:30pm and I'm available to check on pets the rest of the afternoon. My availability on the weekends varies, but I generally stay around the Chattanooga area! I have a dog of my own that I let out in the mornings and when I get home from work. He enjoys playing fetch in the backyard and at the park as well as taking walks with his harness.
