Pet care experience

I have warm heart for cold noses

My grandpa used to own dogs rescue facility for injured and senior dogs, who used to participate in dog fights. I used to help him a lot during my summer breaks and whenever I had time. We had a whole team who helped to improve dogs’ mental health, physics, and get social skills. After 8 years of hard work, we were able to save more than 20 dogs and found them loving families. I also used to have a cat, who were my best friend and lived with me happy 7 years.

Zarina did great with Logan. He’s an anxious dogs and was super relaxed when we picked him up. She sent photos and updates constantly which made us feel at ease.

I would give Zarina 10/5 stars if I could! She was amazing watching my boy, Hershey, providing timely updates and sending pictures frequently. I can tell when I picked him up that he was well cared for 🫶🏼 I was gone for just over a week and she was amazing the whole time! Kept me updated on his eating, walks, etc. Thanks again Zarina, can’t wait to use your services again in the future!

Zarina is a 6 star out of 5 Dogsitter- I have been trusting her with my baby dog for the last two years and I have nothing but compliments for her work. She is very patient with my golden retriever, keeps me informed of everything on a daily basis and more importantly she has been able to create a real connection with dog. I really appreciate her work ethic and how she always go for the extra mile. I will recommend her without any hesitation as she must be one of the most reliable dog sitter in all Toronto.

I was very disappointed with Zarina. She was happy to take my poodle and reserved with her. On the day I took my poodle to her to babysit for 7 days while I’m ready to take off for my vacation, she noticed I gave her pee mats. She tells me last minute, “i thought your dog is potty trained “. I told her, “she is potty trained and pops and pees outdoor as well as she is trained to pop/pee on a per mat”. After she accepted my dog and I had to drive to the airport, she calls me and tells me “i can’t take your dog because she will smell my apartment and ask rover to find you another dog sitter”. I was so furious and VERY Disappointed after she did this to me last minute and I don’t recommend her. Please screen your dog sitters carefully people!!!!!

We’ve been using Zarina as our go-to pet sitter for almost 2 years now, and there’s truly no one better. She’s reliable, caring, and always goes above and beyond for our Sarah. We completely trust her whenever we’re away, and she never fails to send timely updates and the sweetest photos that keep us at ease. Sarah absolutely adores her, and so do we. Can’t recommend Zarina enough—she’s the best!
