Hi, I’m Zachary, and I’m passionate about providing loving, dependable care for your furry friends! Since July, I’ve been doing pet sitting and dog walking full-time, which allows me to dedicate my days entirely to caring for pets. My flexible schedule means I can easily accommodate daily walks, drop-in visits, and even last-minute requests. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long stroll, or some quality playtime, your pets will always get the attention, affection, and consistency they deserve. I take pride in making sure every visit leaves tails wagging and hearts happy! 🐾

Safety, trust & environment

I’m passionate about creating a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for pets in the comfort of their own home. I know that most pets feel most secure surrounded by familiar sights, sounds, and routines — and I always strive to keep that sense of comfort and stability intact. When caring for your pets, I follow your instructions carefully and make their safety my top priority. I’m attentive to details like securing doors and gates, monitoring for potential hazards, and ensuring your pets stick to their regular feeding, walking, and play schedules. Whether it’s a calm visit for a shy pet or an energetic walk for a playful one, I provide reliable, compassionate care so you can have complete peace of mind while you’re away.

Information Zachary S. would like to know about your pet

To make sure I can provide the best possible care for your pet, please share any important details about their needs, routines, and personality. Every pet is unique, and the more I know, the better I can keep them happy and comfortable! Here are some things that are especially helpful to know: • Personality: Is your pet shy, outgoing, playful, or independent? • Exercise Needs: How much activity do they need each day? Do they have any physical limitations? • Socialization: How do they do around other dogs, cats, or people? Any triggers to watch for? • Training: What commands do they know, and are you working on any specific goals? • Feeding: What’s their diet and feeding schedule? Any allergies or sensitivities? • Medications: Do they take any medications? Please include dosages and instructions. • Potty Breaks: How often do they need to go out, and do they have a preferred routine? • Sleeping Habits: Where do they usually sleep, and do they have a nighttime routine? • Fears or Anxieties: Are there any fears, anxieties, or situations that make them uncomfortable? • Other Notes: Anything else unique about their health, behavior, or preferences? The more you share, the more I can tailor my care to meet your pet’s individual needs and ensure their experience is safe, comfortable, and full of love. 🐾

A typical day

A typical day for me revolves around caring for pets — both my own and those I’m lucky enough to look after! My mornings usually start with walks for my two dogs, making sure they get plenty of exercise and fresh air before I head out for client visits. Throughout the day, I provide walks, drop-ins, and playtime sessions for the dogs and cats I care for, tailoring each visit to their unique energy levels and personalities. At home, my cats get just as much attention — from play sessions with their favorite toys to quiet cuddle time and daily check-ins to keep them happy and comfortable. I believe every pet deserves both structure and affection, so whether I’m walking through a sunny park or giving belly rubs during a drop-in, my goal is always the same: to make sure every animal I care for feels loved, safe, and seen. 🐾

Zachary walked our dog every day over a 2-weeek period - our dog can be timid meeting new people, but he quickly built trust through patience and consistency. He was punctual, communicative, and professional throughout, and our dog grew genuinely excited to see him each day.
