Availability
As a mechanical engineering student, my schedule varies a bit throughout the year. I keep my calendar updated to reflect exam weeks and semester schedule changes, including the transition at the end of August. I believe pets deserve unhurried, attentive care, so I only accept bookings I know I can fully commit to. That means when I’m with your pet, they have my full attention, not just a spot squeezed into a busy schedule.

About Zola B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big decision. I’ll always treat your home with the same care and respect I’d expect someone to show mine. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, respect any household rules, double-check doors and gates, and make sure your pet has fresh water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe and happy.
Information Zola B. would like to know about your pet
Before our visit, I’d love to know about your dog’s routine, favorite activities, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. Please let me know if they have any fears, medical concerns, training cues, leash habits, or triggers around people, dogs, or wildlife. The more I know about your dog’s unique personality and preferences, the better I can provide a safe, enjoyable experience that’s tailored just for them.
A typical day
Every dog has their own idea of the perfect day, so I like to tailor our time together to their personality and energy level. We’ll get plenty of exercise, explore lots of interesting smells (because every walk is a sniffari 🐶), play their favorite games, and, of course, stop for plenty of praise and pets along the way. Whether your dog is happiest chasing a ball, exploring the neighborhood, or taking a leisurely stroll, my goal is for them to come home happy, relaxed, and looking forward to our next adventure together.

Pet care experience
I grew up with English Setters and an American Bulldog, so big dogs with big personalities have always felt like home. I even helped with training our Bulldog, which taught me that consistency, patience, and understanding body language go a long way. Every dog is different, and that’s one of my favorite things about them. Some want to sprint around the neighborhood, some would rather stop and sniff every single blade of grass (and I’ll happily wait while they conduct their very important investigations). I enjoy figuring out what makes each dog feel comfortable, happy, and engaged. Whether your dog is high-energy, a gentle giant, or somewhere in between, I’ll meet them where they are. My goal is simple: make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection while you have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

Reviews


Zola is fantastic! She kept us informed of how our little girls were while we were out of town. Definitely using her services again!😁
Zola is exceptionally responsible, responsive, and kind, dedicating spare time to rescuing animals, especially birds. I would wholeheartedly trust her with any pet at all.
