Availability

I am currently a full time college student with a lot of extra time after classes since I only work weekends! I have many breaks in between classes and am available fully after my classes. I love being able to take time out of my day away from school work and play with dogs, walk them, hang out:)

Information Zharah C. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know their usual schedule of feeding, potty breaks, and walks. If the dog needs any medication to take, the time they need to take it. If the dog is friendly with other dogs and children. If the dog needs any special accommodations.

A typical day

I like to take at least 20 minute walks but depending on the weather or the dog, they can be longer or shorter. Typically, I enjoy the company of less active dogs but can surely accommodate for those who are much more energetic and need that stimulation. Some dogs I sit love tug of war or playing fetch!

From Yorkies to Great Danes 🐾

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with my Yorkie, so caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life. With over 10 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and support. I’ve also helped raise and care for my dog’s siblings before they found their forever homes, all of whom were happy and healthy. Beyond my own pets, I’ve worked with rescue dogs, even traveling across the country to help transport them safely to their new families. I’ve also provided temporary shelter for animals in need, which has strengthened my adaptability and compassion. I’m experienced in administering medication and providing attentive care for dogs with special needs. I’ve personally cared for dogs who had mobility issues and required consistent, gentle support—experiences that taught me patience and deepened my understanding of how much trust pets place in us. At home, I care for both a small Yorkie and a Great Dane, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments—from tiny, spirited Chihuahuas to big, affectionate “cuddle buddies.” I also have experience with training and leash work, and I’m confident managing walks safely and calmly. In addition to dogs, I also have experience caring for cats and even reptiles, including my own turtle. This has made me comfortable adapting to different personalities, routines, and care needs across a variety of pets. I prioritize routine, comfort, and attention. My dog goes out four times a day, and I always make sure pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for. I believe pets are family, and I treat them with the same level of care and respect I would expect for my own. I’m easygoing, reliable, and very accommodating. I take pride in providing a safe, loving environment—and I always make sure to leave your pet happy (and with a treat!) before I go.

Five-star service! Zharah is honest, dependable, and truly meticulous. She goes above and beyond to make sure my pup is happy and well-exercised. I wouldn't trust anyone else. Always on time," "Consistent," "Flexible with my schedule” So grateful to have found Zharah! Her patience and compassion are unmatched.
