Highlights
Pet care experience
Certified Pet Lover at your service
I had a cat when I was a child, and have taken care of both small and medium sized dogs for friends and family. I have always loved animals, and one day hope to have my own. In the meantime, I thought I'd extend my passion for animals towards taking care of your pets instead. I promise to treat them as if they were my own!

Ratings and reviews
Zarina watched our dog overnight. Poppy was happy to see us as well as relaxed. We are happy our dog was so comfortable with Zarina. We highly recommend her. 😊
We had a wonderful experience with Zarina and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter. Our dog, Coco, stayed with Zarina for one day, and, we were a bit stressed because Coco is not used to being in someone else's home. Zarina arranged a meet-and-greet the week before, which immediately put us at ease. She was incredibly thorough, asked thoughtful questions about Coco's routine, personality, and needs, and it was clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. On the day of drop-off, Coco was nervous and didn't want to stay. Zarina remained calm, patient, and confident, and she knew exactly how to help Coco settle in. There was also another dog in her care that day, which initially made me a little nervous since Coco had never met that dog before. However, Zarina clearly understands dog behavior and personalities and was very intentional about making sure the dogs were a good match. Everything went smoothly, and there were no issues at all. Throughout the day, Zarina kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us tremendous peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our event without worrying. Seeing Coco relaxed and comfortable in the updates reassured us that she was in excellent hands. When we picked Coco up, she was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It's obvious that Zarina treats every dog as if they were her own. We are so grateful for the care and attention she provided and would not hesitate to book with her again in the future. Thank you, Zarina, for taking such great care of Coco!
Zarina was great and my dog really loved her. She is a lovely person to deal with and I hope to use her services in the future
Just got back from a vacation and Zarina saved me by watching my dog. Not only did she do the regular things for him but she also brushed him, cleaned his bowls and even left a light on for him. She’s an amazing person and I highly recommend her!
zarina was super great and very communicative through the whole process. She sent lots of photos and updates everyday for all 9 days! would highly recommend
I would recommend Zarina to anyone. Very punctual , attentive to our girls and followed every instruction we left. It is comforting to us that we can rely on someone while we’re away

Schedule
I work from home, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets. I don't have any pets of my own, so my full attention will be available for your dogs or cats.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard, and parks nearby to take your pets for walks. I have no pets of my own so there is no potential conflict should I bring your dogs into my house. I'm very detail oriented, and I'm very comfortable with maintaining specific feeding requirements should that be necessary.
A typical day
I love to go hiking or on long walks, so definitely will do a lot of that. I will play games with them, try to incorporate lot's of opportunities to run around and burn energy.
