I stay very active with your dog!
Pet care experience
I used to take care of 15 kids at a time for 8/hrs a day, for about 5 years straight back when I used to work as a staff member at Upper County Community Center. I also owned a pet for about 3 years until our old landlord forced us to get rid of him. Taking care of both is almost the same, but they're both just as rewarding! I'm available plenty during the week and weekends. I'm a great multitasker and very organized and best of all I love dogs; couldn't think of a better job!
Reviews
Zelalem (Z) was so patient and kind with my pups! They have anxiety with new people/surroundings but that wasn’t a problem for Z. This was the longest I’ve been without my pups and Z made this easy with great communication and frequent videos/pictures of them. He even went out of his way to get them a toy alligator! Overall, this was a great experience and we will definitely be utilizing his services in the future! Thanks again Z!
Zelalem was wonderful with my dog Missy and a very personable guy all around. He made himself available for a meet and greet in advance and answered all of my questions. He took great care of her, shes an older girl so she needed a fair amount of joint medications and im super particular about who she meets and he was great on her walks. His mother, who also lives in the house, is lovely and very kind. Very grateful for his help and kindness.
Def going to come back if I ever need to! Great guy, and really good at what he does!
Z has been a pleasure to work with and Gracie really seemed to like him from the start. I definitely intend to call upon Z again for all of my future trips. Thanks, Z!!

I have a fenced yard and I’m very active so I’d usually walk them around outside or take them to the park. My sister also has a very well trained dog so whenever she’s over your pet will have loving company!

Information Zelalem A. would like to know about your pet
I used to have a Yorkie/Poodle mix and my friend used to have a Pitbull and German Shepards + Huskies are my favorite types of dogs, so any in that category would be great! But I love all types of dogs so it doesn't really matter.
A typical day
Mostly training and walking. Dogs can be really smart it makes me laugh when they realize what I want them to do. Besides, I believe dogs love just doing things!
