Pet care experience

Pups are my priority~Hablo Español

Hi! Hola! I’m a dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for family pets. With that, I take the physical health and happiness of every dog seriously. Making sure your dog gets a daily walk is a top priority for me. Getting the blood flowing and taking in all the outside sensory inputs is essential for their mental health, connecting their brains with the natural world. As an owner of a sweet Australian cattle dog/Chihuahua mix, I understand firsthand how important exercise, routine, and affection are—we love bonding during our daily walks through the park and along the greenway. I’ll treat your dog with the same level of care, attention, and love as if they were my own. I work from home so I am an ideal candidate if you need someone for an afternoon walk as I have the flexibility to incorporate it into my lunch break. We can also discuss drop-ins if you’d like, as I’m available for those too. You will find that I have a warm and compassionate personality and that you will feel your pup is in good hands. I understand that not all dogs are built the same, and that’s why I would be delighted to set up a meet-up with you to make sure I’m aware of any special requirements, conditions, etc. This way we can be sure your pup is kept safe and that I’m vigilant of any allergies, medical history, environmental stressors, etc. before we emBARK on our walk. I hope that you’ll grant me the opportunity to help care for your fur baby! It would be a pleasure to help you/ sería un placer cuidar de su mascota

Safety, trust & environment

My dog is cared for with a daily hour long walk. He has a full backyard with a doggy door that permits him to go out and use the bathroom when he needs. He has an arsenal of toys, a big couch to nap on, and loves getting his belly rubbed and morning sunshine on our porch. We are very diligent in ensuring he is up to date on all his shots, medication, and vet visits. He gets ample play time with his family friend, Buddy, a pointer mix, who he stays with on occasion.

Zach is awesome! He was a wonderful dog walker. He was very responsible and communicative. We appreciate all he did for us. Bru will miss him!

Zachary did an amazing job with Vicky! He was quick to respond, sent lots of photos, and it was obvious she was having a great time. She was smiling in every picture. She came home happy and content after walks. I’d absolutely book him again!

I highly recommend Zach!!!! I was very impressed with the patient way he was able to help Bruster aleviate his anxiety when they first met. And during his time with Bru, Zack even got him to go to "Place". We came home to a happy, unanxious dog. <3

We had such a great experience with our dog walker, Zach! From the very beginning, communication was clear and consistent, which gave us so much peace of mind. He was reliable, on time, and clearly cared about our dog like their own. We appreciated his promptness, kindness, and excitement ge expressed toward taking care of Ziggy —it made being away much more tolerable knowing he was in good hands. Our dog came home happy, well-exercised, and excited for the next visit, which says everything! We would absolutely recommend Zach to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog walker.

Schedule

I currently live in Fort Mill, SC. I work from home 5 days a week and am therefore available to help care for your pet. I am flexible but ideally I am mostly available around lunch time, where you can count on me to step away and take your dog for a mid-day walk. If you feel comfortable with me being in your home, I can spend some time there if you permit me to use your WiFi and work a little before departing. I’ll make sure your pet is watered, has food, has had their walk, and is in good spirits before leaving them.

Please let me know of everything upfront that you feel I need to be aware of about your dog! I am perfectly capable of attending to any special needs/considerations. If there are any house rules I need to adhere to, please notify me in advance! I understand not all dogs are the same when it comes to physical activity needs and levels, appetite, and social skills. As such, I’ll do my best to adapt to your pets personality and work with them to achieve any goals you have established for them. Lastly, if any meds need administered, we will level-set to ensure I am appropriately providing your pet with the adequate dosage
