Pet care experience

Grand Rapids - I love all animals!

I’ve had pets in my life since the day I was born. I grew up with dogs, cats, birds, fish, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs and even ducks! These days I have a dog (3 years old) and a cat (11 years old). I had a second cat who passed in 2022 from illness, so I have experience caring for animals of all ages and health. I am reliable, patient and caring with animals and will treat your pets like my own! My schedule is flexible and I am able to travel in the Grand Rapids area. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

At our house, my dog goes potty either off leash in our backyard or on leash while we walk around the neighborhood. Our cat is strictly an indoor cat, but I grew up with indoor/outdoor cats and am happy to care for yours however you need! I’m here to meet your pets’ care needs, so please feel free to provide any special instructions. Whatever it is, I will be respectful of your pets, your space and your time.

Zachary did an awesome job walking my dog Phoebe! He took all instruction on board, genuinely cares for all her needs and nuances and has great communication. He kept me updated on how the walk went with messages and photos, he’s very reliable and trustworthy with the care of your pet, couldn’t recommend enough!

A little intro and description of your animals would be amazingly helpful! If they have any favorite activities, special requirements or if they are just shy or wary of strangers, that would be great to know! My goal is to give the best care to your pets and make their day (and yours!) better.
