Dog and Cat Loving Musician NYC/NJ

Pet care experience

Hello there! I am a musician and former preschool teacher eager to care for your dog or cat as if they were my own. I have had pets in my home for my entire life and I have been taking care of them from a very young age. My wife comes from a dog sledding family and grew up with a kennel of 20+ Siberian Huskies and Alaskan Malamutes in the back yard so I have easy access to expert council. I love animals of all kinds from large dogs to tiny bunnies. Since I have been around animals so much in my life, I have quite a bit of empathy for pets and I am able to forge special connections with my furry buddies. I can connect with any energy level, excited exercisers and laid back loungers alike. Since I am a musician my schedule is very flexible for pet care. I am looking to find some cute cuddly pals to hang out with between teaching mommy-and-me classes in NYC and NJ. I'd love to meet some animals who I can build a lasting relationship with. If your pets are music lovers, as an added bonus I will sing them songs! My wife and I have a cat of our own at home named Amos whom I adore. He is very finicky and has some medical issues, so I am comfortable with pets who have special needs as well as accustomed to administering medications (in both dogs and cats). I am also understanding of pet owners who are specific about the way their pets need to be cared for as I am just such a pet owner myself! If your looking for compassionate and knowledgeable pet care, look no further!

Zachary went above and beyond while taking care of our babies! I appreciated all the adorable photos and updates in addition to the standard Rover card. He even charmed our cat, who has NEVER let a stranger pet him before! The constant communication made leaving our fur babies at home much less stressful than with previous dog sitters. We came home to two very happy pups.

He did an awesome job with Chloe and Ginger. He was available to help us when we needed it. I came home to very happy dogs. I will definitely use him again.

Zach was very good with my 2 dogs. He sent us lots of pictures for each visit. He was very good at filling out the rover card so I would know exactly what happened at each visit. He was very good at communication with me if I had any questions during the visit. I would highly recommend him. We will be using him in the future.
