Pet care experience

I want to be your dog's friend!

Hi! I'm excited to have the chance to meet your pup(s)! I have personal and professional petcare experience. I have been lucky enough to have had dogs my whole life. I also recently spent 2 years as a professional dogwalker with Wag. I've cared and walked dogs of all kinds, older, younger, pullers, take-their-timers, and can't wait until someone wants me to take their dog for a run! :) I love puppies and helping to train, youtube certified. I have also volunteered at the Humane Society walking dogs there! For boarding, I do have a cat, but can easily separate the areas in my apartment to accommodate.

Zach has cared for our dog, Amy Lou, many times. Our pup lights up whenever Zach comes to visit because he brings the fun! He is energetic and positive, which is especially beneficial for pets that need that extra play time. Zach is also kind and gentle. I'm always impressed by his ability to match his energy with what the animal needs. Our dog is always well fed, exercised, and extremely loved when she's with Zach. I would recommend him for any family that's looking for a pet caregiver, truly!

When it comes to taking care of pets, Zach is the best! He doesn’t just walk them and make sure they’re safe—he truly treats them like family. When they’re in his care, they’re more than just pets; they’re loved, cared for, and treated like his own. I highly recommend Zach to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their furry family members!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is always the priority. Harness is preferred, but a secure collar/leash is a must. I also tend to avoid other dogs/people at all times to ensure a calm and easygoing visit. I'm very accessible by phone and follow instructions to the dot. I live steps away from the Oak Leaf Trail, so expect lovely and peaceful walks if boarding.
