Pet care experience
Anything to make a dogs day better!
I Grew up a dog lover. I have about 15 years of Hands on experience with dogs. My first job at 15 was volunteering at a local human society where i still help out from time to time. This job is where i worked majority of the time one on one with our dog handler and gained the experience and hands on time with all different types of breeds from the smallest to the biggest. Very Experienced in dog training with obedience, aggression, as well as forms of anxiety. I personally have 4 dogs 2 of 4 are hearing impaired alert dogs as i am partially deaf. I have 2 pitbulls, 1 cane corso, and 1 corso bully mix. They are my absolute life. I work, and devote all my time to my animals. I’ve cared for many peoples animals, including training a good portion of them as well. I love dogs, they are my passion so if i can repay them with more love, attention and happiness as they often give us (their owners) than I’d be very content.

Safety, trust & environment
I have 4 dogs of my own. 2/4 are hearing impaired services animals. My 4th is still a pup so we are currently in training now. I have a huge yard, as well as 2 big 6x6 kennels which are both in a sun room with lots of fresh air, sun, heat, air conditioning. I walk my dogs 2 times a day. Once in the morning and once at night. I am a frequent visitor of the crossings of Colonie which is where i bring my dogs daily for walking and training purposes. I am very protective and hands on with my dogs and that’s exactly how i would be with anyones dog. The dogs safety and health/well-being are always the main focus.
Ratings and reviews
I first noticed Zack walking in our local park. He had three medium to large breed dogs with him and they were all impressively obedient. I recently had gotten a Golden Retriever puppy who was giving me a run for my money! I was struggling specifically with leash walking. I struck up a conversation with Zack to see if he could help me. Without hesitation he offered helpful advice! I was very impressed with how knowledgeable he was on dogs and dog training. We exchanged phone numbers and continued to meet up in the park. Thanks to Zack my Golden pup walks beautifully on the leash now. I would (and have!) recommended Zack to friends and family for training.
From the first time I met Zack, he's been nothing but a dog whisperer. I've been taking my large breed dog. to our football games since he's been 2 months old. Every time Zack would see my dog he was very attention giving and loving towards him. He would also give me excellent information and tips on such a large breed dog. This has made handling our dog a lot easier and he's been very informative with us. Recently, my dog had puppies and I reached out to Zack to see if he was interested in adding to his family. I would love for Zack to be able to raise one of the pups because I know it would be raised in a very very well home.
I have known Zack for well over 10 years, the love he has for his dogs as well as for all dogs (mine included!) is unmatched! His dogs are like his children and treats them as such! I would highly recommend Zack with watching your pets, I will be using him to watch ours when we go on vacation!!
Zack is a great pet caregiver. Don’t let the tattoos fool you, he’s a giant teddy bear that loves being around animals. I recommend him with any type of dog or pet. Absolutely great guy
Zack is the definition of a dog person. Not only does he provide wonderful care and love to his own three dogs, but he also shows just as much affection to other people’s dogs. He’s so great with our two golden retrievers whenever he’s here, that they can’t contain their excitement when they seem him coming through the window. He’s playful and fun with them, yet also stern with behaviors which helps when you’re training your dog not to jump on visitors. He enjoys working with dogs and teaching them new tricks. I have no doubt in my mind that he would provide the best care for anyone’s dogs, from quick walks or exercise during the day to weekends or week long care.
I couldn't imagine a better person to care for dogs than Zack. He is a true dog lover in every aspect and anyone would be lucky to have him. The love and care he has rendered to his and his friends dog is second to none.
