The Best Care 4 Your Best Friend
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Zak. First off, thanks for taking the time to review my sitter details. I'm sure your attention to detail and efforts towards proper care has your pet(s) more than happy to be your companion. A little about me: Since I can remember, I've always had a furry family member (if not multiple) to care for. I am confident that your pets will warm up to me quickly and be happy to see me the next time I or they come back around! I currently take care of all of my obligations remotely, even my grocery shopping (so my house is very well protected from the dangers of the pandemic). Early mornings and weekends I am most available to assist fellow pet parents adhere to their schedules without leaving their loved ones alone. So whether your're looking for services now or just browsing for the future- do keep me in mind. This gig, while taken very seriously, is more a source of fun than an income necessity. Hope to hear from you! :)

zak was excellent. he took really good care of my cat, who is usually very scared and shy but it was clear he enjoyed his time with zak. my house was kept impeccably clean and in order.
Dear furry friend lovers, For your pet sitting needs, you can’t do better than Zakkary! We needed a pet sitter last minute and making arrangements while driving from DC to Indiana for our sons move in at Purdue. Zakkary answered and said he’d be able to help us for all 3 days. His knowledge and expertise in handling out labradoodle who is playful (but barks at every little sound at the hotel) was amazing. He walked her so many times each day, gave treats, played with her and made sure she was exhausted so she would sleep easy at the end of each day. There is no way we would have been able to do all the thing we needed to get done without Zakkary’s help. And furthermore he was so flexible when we had to tweak our hours each day depending on what was going on. Zakkary is professional, clearly knows how to take care of our furry friends and a lovely person as well! 5-stars all the way! Don’t hesitate and book with Zakkary. Thanks, Das family
Zakk saved the day. Our house sitter canceled AFTER we had left for our trip, and she simply did not show up. Zakk took care of our menagerie (two dogs, two cats, a parrot, and fish) and gave one of our dogs his med he was prescribed the day before. He gave us his daily updates and loved our kids the way we had hoped, given the circumstances of why we had to leave. I truly appreciate him and would recommend him to just about anyone!
Best sitter/ trainer I've ever come across in my life! Super nice guy and I loved getting to know him and how well he took care of my pup! :)

Safety, trust & environment
I am very aware of my surroundings, even when newly acquainted. I have an inside cat and an in and out dog, so being vigilant of their whereabouts when opening the door is a must.
Home
Information Zakkary W. would like to know about your pet
No specific preferences. However, any medical history, allergies or common misbehaviors are pretty standard and will be requested if not offered initially. A meet n greet is preferred in preparation for house sitting or drop-ins to ensure I’m not seen as an intruder.
A typical day
A long walk to a park is a dog's best friend! Especially a dog park, as long as owners are comfortable with that level of socialization. I do have a habit of talking directly to my furry friends to make sure they feel included even when not engaged in playtime.
