Your dog will get exercise!!
Pet care experience
We always had a dog growing up. Always well trained, well exercised and loved. I miss having my own dog and would like to spend time walking or hanging out with yours! I think what sets me apart from other walkers is your dog will get the exercise it needs and be cared and respected during.
Reviews
Well big disappointment here. We thought we had found a good, possible long term walker for our dog. Zack did not complete his assignment with us. Very keyed into his own social whirl, which is fine but shouldn't make commitments to others he's not able nor willing to keep. And lied to us... said he was moving to Portland for a new job, but here he is still, in Salem, doing his thing. Honesty would have set much better with us. Only use him if you are interested in sporadic, shifting availability.
Zach is awesome! Rory loves when he comes to visit and we are always grateful that he takes him on a walk. Highly recommend!
Zachary did a great job. Super personable and my dog had no hesitations on going on a walk with him. Looking forward to walks in the future!
Asked Zach to dog/house sit for me while on vacation. Both dogs (golden retriever & border Colie) loved him and he took great care of them. Milo has daily medication for hyperthyroidism and that was no issue.

It depends on the dog as far as their needs, but I treat all animals with respect. I am gentle and understanding to a dogs needs. Paying attention to their exercise needs/wants/capabilities. What enviorments they like to walk in and how much hydration may be needed during.
Information Zachary D. would like to know about your pet
Any special needs or behaviors. How much exercise they need. I.e long walk, short walk, running, etc. If they do well with other dogs or prefer walking alone. Anything at all that will help me take better care of your dog!
A typical day
Explore parks, play games, let them stretch their legs out. Plenty of attention and affirmation. Just want to condition the dog, so that when it sees me, it knows it's going to be a fun time
