Pet care experience

Caring Dog Lover!!

I’ve loved dogs my whole life, and I’d be thrilled to care for yours. I’ve been a pet owner for 15 years, and over those years that has included a black lab, 2 chihuahua rescues, a German shepherd, a pitbull, and a Corgi/Husky mix. I’ve also looked after the pets of my family and friends for extended periods, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I take pet care seriously not just the fun parts like playing and walking, but making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Your peace of mind matters just as much as their happiness. I’m able to care for dogs from small breeds up to about 100 lbs. As part of my services, I can walk your dog around your neighborhood so they stay in a familiar environment, and I’m happy to play with them indoors or outdoors based on your preferences. I can also administer oral medications if needed.

Safety, trust & environment

I have plenty of experience walking and playing with dogs of all sizes so I am more than able to handle your little fur babies as well as the big ones. I love just hanging out with them if that is more their vibe as well. My own dogs are couch potatoes so I know how much value a little quiet down time can go a long ways too.

I’ve trusted Zach to watch my dog whenever I have gone away on extended vacations, and he has always done an amazing job. I never have to worry about whether my dog, cat, or home is being well cared for while I’m away. He is responsible, attentive, and genuinely cares about making sure my dog is happy and comfortable. Every time I come home, my pup is happy, healthy, and clearly well taken care of. It gives me a lot of peace of mind knowing my dog is in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets. He treats them with the care and attention they deserve!

I had a great experience having him walk my dog for a week. He showed up every day on time, was always prepared, and was incredibly kind and patient with my dog. He clearly cared about making sure my dog was comfortable and had a good experience on every walk. My dog seemed to really enjoy having him around and was always happy to see him. I also appreciated how dependable and responsible he was throughout the week. I would absolutely trust him with my dog again and would recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet with care and attention.

I can’t recommend him enough as a pet sitter! He has always been incredibly caring, patient, and attentive with our own animals, and it’s clear that he genuinely loves being around animals. He treats every pet like they’re part of the family and always makes sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. One of the things that stands out most is how naturally animals seem to trust him. Even pets that are usually shy or cautious seem to warm up to him quickly. He’s responsible, dependable, and pays close attention to their individual personalities and needs. I feel completely comfortable leaving my pets in his care, and I know they get plenty of attention, affection, and excellent care while I’m away. Any pet would be lucky to have him as their sitter!

I would want to know about your dog (or dogs) and whether they have any health issues or behavioral issues and what their favorite activities are.
