Pet care experience

Love & Dedication to animals ♡

I've volunteered at an shelter consistently for a year+ and worked at a daycare/boarding/grooming facility as a bather/playtime coordinator for about 3 years. I've handled cats and dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperament! I can handle most animals Including fur babies with disabilities/extra needs such as needing meds, needing to be carried, tri-pods, blind & deaf (I actually have experience doing nail trims on dogs that were blind and deaf!) I have lots of experience with dog aggressive dogs, muzzle needed dogs, reactivity, and overall reading animal body language is a strong suit of mine! I am very willing to work with anyone's fur babies! I also have 2 pups of my own and spent my entire childhood working with friends dogs! I also rode horses for majority of my childhood! (Can you tell I love animals lol) I have also a certificate in pet first aid/cpr and a few certificates relating to vet assistant education! Your fur babies are in safe but fun hands with me!

Safety, trust & environment

I have always focused on safety first when it comes to animals. In my pervious job and volunteer experience- I was always on top of reporting any sort of behaviors that seems unusual for the animal or concerning. You can trust that I will contact you if anything seems wrong/concerning!

Highly recommend Aaliyah! She took such good care of my two cats. She took the time to play and clean up after them. Even my shy cat was a big fan! :)

She was amazing with our cats! She sent lots of pictures and updates, and we felt so comfortable knowing they were in good hands. We’ll definitely book with her again!

Aaliyah is truly the very best! My pets absolutely adore her, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing that when I’m out of town, my babies are getting so much love, attention, and care. She is incredibly attentive to detail, and I always feel completely confident leaving them in her hands. We’re so lucky to have her!

Aaliyah again took such great care of our dogs, including our new corgi puppy. She went above and beyond to make sure our pups were put at ease during our absence and even managed to trim our puppies nails. Will definitely book again in the future!

Schedule

I am a very flexible person! I can do last minute walks or drop-ins and I'm pretty relaxed about cancelations too! I am currently in Pharmacy Tech school (online) which provides me a very flexible schedule!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Aaliyah can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
Ideally please show proof of your pet being up to date on the rabies vaccine. Let me know if your pup has any problems or preferences! If your dog has a routine I will gladly follow directions! Also let me know where to find their leashes, collars, food, ect! If your dog has any sort of aggression (i.e food, toy, other dogs, leash aggression, barrier reactive, ect please let me know. It is not a deal breaker for me I just need to be informed!)
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.
