Hi, I’m Zara! I’m a Turner-based university student with a background in finance, but my real passion is animals. I’ve grown up caring for four dogs, a horse, and a cat, from lively Jack Russells to gentle Tibetan Mastiffs, so I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’ve also helped friends and family with walking, feeding, and pet sitting, giving me hands-on experience with both energetic and more sensitive animals.

I offer dog walking and in-home pet sitting, always tailoring my care to each pet’s personality and needs. Walks usually last 30–60 minutes and can include structured walking, playtime, or slower-paced outings for older or more relaxed dogs. I’m confident handling leash pulling and can adjust my approach for nervous or reactive pets, using patience and positive reinforcement to help them feel secure.

During in-home visits, I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and lots of attention, so they feel comfortable in their own space. I’m also happy to help with small extras like bringing in mail or watering plants.

I provide regular updates with photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. If anything unexpected comes up, I stay calm and act quickly, whether that means contacting you, adjusting care, or seeking veterinary advice if needed.

I’m friendly, reliable, and genuinely care about making every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m available on weekends and weekdays (subject to availability), and I’d love to meet you and your pet!
