Safety, trust & environment

I have experience with rescues and highly anxious dogs as I have had two of them in the past and currently have one who is petrified of everything and everyone. My family dog was deaf and blind at the end of his life and we would hand make his food and hand feed him as well. I am excellent at administering medications as I had done this for my own dogs in the past. I am well versed in different energy and triggers that any animal may exhibit and have been able to rehabilitate my own dogs from their fear and anxiety of people and the environment. I absolutely love animals and they can sense it. I have house sit for friends in the past with rescue dogs and have had to administer medications and dealt with leash aggression etc. I am well versed in canine behaviour and will respect the limits your pets have in any situation. I would be more than happy to provide a safe environment for your fur babies. As you can see from my photos I always ensure my dogs are dressed up for the rigid weather so don’t be afraid to let me know if your dog needs a jacket or rain gear or shoes for their walks! I always carry a doggy water bottle in case your pup is parched:).

Information Zahrah H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog is anxious around other dogs and prefers to find secluded area to explore as my own dog suffers from pet anxiety so I’m well versed in some hidden gems in Orleans that we can explore solo! Or perhaps your dog enjoys any type of environment and we can explore the neighbourhood. Whatever your dogs needs - don’t be shy to communicate their temperaments and preferences!

A typical day

I love exploring nature and finding these hidden gems in my area to explore - somewhere where your fur baby can run around and embrace nature. I love to be able to give your dog the best experiences of their day as us humans don’t deserve dogs! They should live a life of luxury and be treated like royalty! It truly fulfils me to make your pets happy and loved.

Animal lover/rescuer filled w/love!

Pet care experience

Hello! I have such a deep love for all animals and am actively involved in supporting many animal rescues domestic and international (as they often get overlooked). I rescued my first dog (who crossed over the rainbow bridge a few years back) from an animal rescue in Quebec and now have rescued my second dog from overseas. My second rescue just crossed over the rainbow bridge and I’m heartbroken to say the least. He was a former neglected and abused street dog who was slightly neurodiverse due to the abuse he suffered as was my previous dog. He needed special care and patience but is so trusting of humans. I’ve also had a family dog that was treated more like a family member 😚. I absolutely love animals (perhaps more than humans some will say 😊) and will love and care for them as they were my own. I wholeheartedly believe animals are the music of the soul - they are family members, our primary sources of love and companionship and our protégés mentored like children. I work full time remotely from home currently and I can offer drop in visits and dog walks for those of you who have a busy work and family schedules. I love going for long/short walks and embracing nature with dogs and can be readily available everyday to take your dogs for their daily exercise. Or, perhaps if you require a drop in cuddle and play visit, I am at your service! Your dog will be so loved, adored and safe with me as I just think that animals deserve the best us humans can offer them in their short lifetime. Whether your pet is hyperactive and requires a walk or play time to burn off some of that energy or perhaps they are more reserved and introverted and just need some backyard time, love and attention - look no further! I would be more than happy to ensure your pets have their daily dose of love if you are at the office all day or have a busy day with the family. As my own rescue is not a big fan of long walks (he is terrified), I am eagerly itching to be able to burn off some energy for any pet (and myself 😚). I have so much love for special needs dogs as well as both my former dogs and current dog were anxious and abused rescues that I feel were brought back to life by love and patience - that’s all they need!

We really appreciated Zahrah. Communication was excellent. Our two dogs and cat were calm and happy when we came back home. The house was in perfect order. Plus, we loved her bubbly personality. We totally recommend her services.
