Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, the goal is to keep their routine as normal, calm, and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication needs, and any specific habits or preferences the pet is used to. I treat every home with respect by keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as I found them. As a full-time art teacher, being responsible, organized, and trustworthy is a big part of my daily life, and I bring that same mindset into every pet sitting visit.

A Reliable, Caring Dog Walker

Pet care experience

I’ve been around animals my entire life, growing up with pets and continuing that today with animals of my own. That experience has helped me understand different personalities, energy levels, and the importance of consistency and routine—especially when it comes to dogs and their daily walks. As a full-time art teacher, I’m used to being dependable, attentive, and organized, and I bring that same level of responsibility to every walk. Whether your dog needs a quick outing or a longer walk to burn off energy, I’ll treat them with the same care, patience, and respect that I give my own pets, making sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for.

Our Sadie loved Zach. He was patient and very gentle with her. I would recommend them to anybody.

Zach was an incredible help when I needed someone I could truly trust with my dog. On nights when I worked late, he made sure my dog was well cared for, fed on time, let out, and given attention so they never felt alone. During times when I had to travel for work, Zach went above and beyond by staying overnight, keeping my home secure and making sure my dog was comfortable in their own environment. What stood out most was how reliable he was. I never had to worry, he communicated consistently, showed up exactly when he said he would, and treated my dog with genuine care and kindness. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my dog was safe, happy, and in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Zach again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate sitter.

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Zach! While we were away, he took incredible care of our cats and gave us complete peace of mind. He was extremely reliable—showing up every day without fail to feed them and keep their litter clean. What really stood out was how much time and attention he gave them beyond the basics. He made sure to spend quality time with our cats each day, which made such a difference in keeping them happy and comfortable while we were gone. Zach was also very trustworthy and communicated with us consistently, providing updates that reassured us everything was going great at home. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the animals he looks after. We would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!
