A Dog's Best Friend!

Hi there! I've loved dogs since I can remember and have raised 2 dogs through all stages of their lives- Rocky an Aussie/Spaniel mix and Prince a Coton de Tulear and currently have a young Giant Schnauzer, Goldendoodle and senior German Shepherd. Having grown up around all kinds of breeds from working dogs to the most devoted of family pets - my heart is open to most all furry friends! I've walked, trained and cared for dogs for family, friends and long-term clients and can help with anything from puppy training (crate, potty, obedience, leash), reactivity and/or aggression to providing structure, enrichment and lots of clear, loving guidance to dogs of all ages and various temperaments! Hope to meet you soon! I walk and care for each dog as if they were my own 🐾😄

Zahran did an incredible job watching Tucker! He sent regular updates and made sure Tucker went on consistent walks and even helped with his training. Couldn't recommend him more!

We love Zahran! Charlie loves her solo or pack walks every time. Zahran is always timely, quick to respond and shares the best pics!

Zahran was amazing. I was looking for someone to simply watch our dog over the holiday, he went above and beyond. He helped out with advice, training and socializing. Our giant puppy came back with manners and Zahran helped educate us how to keep that momentum going. He also sent very frequent updates of how our dog was doing and pictures of all the walks they went on. We will definitely be hitting Zahran up again for continued dog training and for rover services when we go out of town again!

House Sitting • May 31, 2024

Zahran was attentive, extremely responsive and this is my first time using this app and sitting my 11 week old puppy so clearly a bit hesitant and nervous. I couldn’t be more satisfied and happy and absolutely will use Zahran again!!!

Safety, trust & environment

I live near a multitude of great parks, neighborhoods and trails to take your dog(s) on fulfilling and stimulating walks or out to play and explore. I have three well socialised and trained dogs of my own who love to play and can definitely keep up with even the most energetic dog. I also have a fenced yard with plenty of room for off-leash fun if and when needed! I aim to give dogs what they need to have happiness and success in life - which includes stimulating exercise, routined feeding, obedience games/training as well as structured crate sessions or watch tv on the couch to unwind and relax!

Pets

A typical day

I would love taking your dog for a nice walk through my uptown neighbourhood either through Oak Lawn, by Highland Park or even a nice long stroll through Katy trail. I know a bunch of great parks with plenty of room to play fetch or even go on a nice stimulating sniffari. I also love playing a nice confidence building game of tug or structured fetch as well as running through basic obedience to always keep the pups I watch stimulated mentally as well as physically!

Please let me know if your dog has a set routine for feeding/a feeding schedule, whether you like them crated at certain times during the day as well as any medical needs they may have, or anything I need to keep an eye out for (such as allergies, injuries or any such special needs). I also like being transparent about specific behavioral traits your dog may have, such as reactivity to people, dogs or any other stimuli.
