My availability has changed recently due to getting a part time job and being a part time college student but I am still available during the afternoons for walks and drop ins. If you’re interested in any of my services, send a message and I’d be happy to set up a meet and greet. It’s a great time for us to get to know each other and for me to meet you and your pet. :)

Safety, trust & environment

I don’t currently offer boarding however, for house sitting clients I ensure to keep an open dialogue with the owners on their pets well being and care during the visit. If I see that your pet is uncomfortable at anytime during my visit, I make sure to ask the pet parents about triggers or other quirks that may be causing their pets reaction.

Information Zia S. would like to know about your pet

Please reach out before our scheduled appointment if your pet needs any special care. I’ll be happy to ease your concerns and help make the visit go smoothly by keeping you informed and aware of the goings on during my visit.

A typical day

A typical house sitting or drop in consists of going for a walk after introductions, making sure they are comfortable with me. When we get back from our walk I usually let them relax and get some water and continue building their trust. If I am house-sitting, I make sure I am sticking to the owners instructions/schedule for their pet. Making sure to feed them on their regular schedule, taking them out when they need it, and keeping them safe during my visit.

Committed to extraordinary care

Pet care experience

I have grown up around animals and have been a cat and dog mom for many years now. I have experience with house sitting, drop in visits, walking, some training and administration of oral medicine for both dogs and cats. Being a caretaker is in my blood, I am extremely grateful to be able to share my experiences with my clients and look forward to meeting you and your pets.

Zia was fantastic. Excellent communication, daily updates, and kept the house spotless! Our boxer was very comfortable with her. She was timely, and even stayed a little late when we had a late return flight so our boy wouldn’t have to be inside too long. Very professional, and clearly loves animals. We will be reaching out again in the future!

Again Zia did a great job with our pups and our house. Ciara, Dash, and Olive are all happy and healthy and our house is orderly and neat. Thanks Zia!

Zia took great care of our dogs and home! She spent lots of outside time with them and gave them all the snuggles. We would definitely recommend her to others!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
