Raised & trained 2 dogs of my own!

Pet care experience

Having raised and trained 2 dogs of my own, I understand that a dog is more than a pet, but a beloved member of the family, so I give that same love to all of the dogs I take care of because dogs will always give us unconditional love in return. I started dog and cat sitting in high school for friends and neighbors, and then continued throughout my college career too for some of the faculty and staff at John Carroll University. Currently, until the first week of August, I work M-F 9am-3pm as a poetry teacher for a summer camp called Innercity Tennis Clinic. Then, from mid-August onward, I will have flexible hours during the weekdays since I will work from home or at my office as a fellow for the Cleveland Foundation. Finally, the weekends are always completely open for me, which gives me time to house and dog-sit, walk your dog(s) routinely throughout the day, or even drop-in for a quick visit.

Zach was a terrific pet sitter. He was very diligent in providing regular and timely updates on his visits and he alerted me to any issues or questions. Fortunately, there weren't many of these! I'll be traveling again in a few weeks and look forward to having Zach come out again to take care of the dogs.

We hired Zach because Acer was having some separation anxiety issues during a move. Zach was totally understanding because of previous experience and was able to tire Ace out with some nice long walks. Zach also gave some good advice about other techniques we could try to help Acer out. Would absolutely recommend to anyone who needs some extra attention for their dogs.

Zach was so at ease with our German Shorthair Pointer and got along beautifully with her. He was punctual, reliable, and courteous. I can't imagine a better pet sitter!

Zach loves dogs, and knows how important it is that they have time not only to walk, but also to be with other people. He made sure to hang out with our dog when we were away and I know that Flash loved that.

Information Zach T. would like to know about your pet

I usually like to know if the dog needs any medications, special foods, or toy that may help me take care of the dog appropriately. Every dog is different, so I want to know beforehand what makes your dog special. For instance, what's their personality like, how much playing do they enjoy, where do they like to get scratched? Those 411 details ensure that your dog is in excellent care with me.

A typical day

Sometimes dogs just want to walk and sniff everything, right? Well, as a patient person and a lover of walking, I'll let your dog walk and sniff to their heart's satisfaction. If your dog likes to play fetch or tug-of-war, then we'll do that as well.
