Experience with many breeds

Pet care experience

I was raised by an ethical Labrador breeder, avid dog lover and rescuer. I have been taught to care for dogs of all ages and be attentive to their behaviors. I have consistently been a dog sitter and walker for friends and family and neighbors. I am happy to walk, play, bathe your pup!

Zainab is the best house sitter we have ever had. She is truly the best and you’d be lucky to have her take care of your pets.

Very happy repeat customer! Came home after a week away to happy and healthy babies (all 4 of them!). She even had to deal with a cat escape and did so deftly. Will definitely be reaching out again!

Zainab took care of our wild brood of 3 cats and a dog for a prolonged vacation with ease! She made sure to reach out with any questions or issues, sent photos and videos regularly, and our babies were healthy and happy upon our return. She also left our house clean and with everything in place. Highly recommend Zainab to others and we will definitely be reaching out to her again!

Zainab was absolutely incredible with our dog. We hired her for the week and it went flawlessly from start to end. She did way more than we expected her to and she left our apartment is better condition than when we left. Would love her to stay in our place and keep our dog again.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and two friendly pups (roommates dogs) for yours to play with, but they also have their own spaces if that is a problem. We are a calm, quiet house and most of us are usually not home, so it’s not an over-stimulating environment if your pup is a little nervous. I also live near a couple of great parks. I am happy to talk more about rates and my schedule. :)

Information Zainab S. would like to know about your pet

I would greatly appreciate information about any anxieties your dog may have, how to introduce them to other dogs (if at all), and dietary restrictions are extremely important for me. It would also be great to know if they’re most comfortable sleeping a certain way, or what their favorite treats are.

A typical day

I love to keep the dogs active and happy, depending on how much they can handle. Shorter walks in the morning are typical in the summer, but then Id love to take your dog to the park and run around with them. We’ll close out the day by cuddling on the couch!

I currently am unemployed so rover is my full time gig. I take an online ass Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 7-10 pm, but that’s about it for my time commitments. For dog sitting I’m able to make this work very well.
