Hey, I'm Zan and I am 35. I also have a BSc and MSc in Biomedical Sciences. I’m providing doggy home boarding and doggy day care full-time. The dogs are being cared for 24/7. They are not left alone and under full observation. It makes me absolutely happy being surrounded by pets specially dogs. I have a dog of my own but always wanted a big family of pets.
I love to maintain a great physical and mental health for me and my dog so we have a strict schedule of a morning and evening walk. Bestie and I maintain a balanced lifestyle and still have time to spend to what we are passionate about. 
I am a Mom to a very well behaved beagle and I consider myself very lucky to have her. My beagle went to shows and I know how to handle and train puppies and dogs. We only went to shows for fun and nothing more. We refuse to do anything that is not good for our dog. Their welfare and happiness comes first. My beagle baby is very friendly and sociable that will keep your dog company and happy.
I have had loads of experience with dogs and have been doing this for a long time. I know what it is like to be a pet parent where you want to give them the best they could have: the safety, the food, the toys, the love, attention and care. I also know how it feels that when you want to be away, you want to make sure your baby is well looked after so finding someone to look after your baby is important. I am offering a service to be a short-term guardian for your baby dog while you are away. I provide an everyday, all through-out the day updates from play, to walk, to sleep so you know how well your furry baby is doing which will keep your mind at ease while they are away from you. I have dealt with dogs who are anxious and I do my observation and see what is best for them under my care. If the dogs are used to sleeping in the bedroom, I allow dogs to sleep with me and Bestie so they feel the comfort and will do our utmost best to keep your furry baby happy and stress-free. I board a few dogs at a time but I do so on a first come first serve basis where the first dog that books with me, I will try to match with the other dogs who may want to book. I have loads of other clients who are a repeat and all clients of mine have dogs who are absolutely friendly and knows or who have learnt manners around being with other dogs. I can work on some behavioural problems but I cannot reassure that when they go back it will be the same as it all depends on how or what the parents tolerate from their furry baby. It is very important that dogs learn to be exposed to being with other dogs and people, specially being handled by others too so pet parents can enjoy going away on holiday and is able to go to work. Dogs surrounded by other dogs only learn manners when they are exposed to them. My Bestie is very good at teaching other dogs specially puppies manners so that they learn to become a well-behaved dog citizen. If the dogs have some serious behavioural problem I unfortunately will not be able to help. Please make sure that as pet parents you have also done your part in training them as I will not risk other dogs from getting hurt which is why Bestie and I always do our assessment by doing a meet and greet. My Bestie is very good in her judgement and if she feels scared and aloof, it will be the sign not to take the dog any further. I always make sure that all dogs are safe, being looked after in a harmonious and stress-free, fun and loving environment.

Zandra was absolutely amazing!!!!! I have 0 complaints. It was my first time leaving my pup with someone so I was very nervous. However, Zandra reassured me every step of the way and did a brilliant job of looking after my pup. We got constant pics/video updates which kept us at ease. Miso was so happy when we picked him up, I could tell he was very well looked after. He even came back better behaved which is brilliant. I will definitely use Zandra again!

Oscar had a wonderful time staying at Zandra’s place with her gorgeous beagle, Bestie. Lots of really great photos and cute videos to enjoy and share with friends and family. Would definitely recommend Zandra who is very calm, professional, reliable and knowledgeable when it comes to dogs and how to handle them. Her and Bestie make a fantastic team!!

Zandra is great! Really firm handler and clearly experienced. She was totally unphased by our big puppy. We love that she has other dogs for him to play with and a offers a dedicated service. Completely reliable. Would book everytime.
