I pay close attention to behavior, energy changes, and comfort, and I communicate clearly with owners throughout the stay. My focus is not just supervision, but thoughtful, reliable care that helps pets feel secure and settled while their people are away.

Safety, trust & environment

Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I keep a consistent, well-paced schedule that allows for regular meals, walks, check-ins, and plenty of attentive care throughout the day. I take on a limited number of pets so each one receives calm, unhurried attention in a comfortable, low-stress environment. This approach works especially well for pets who value routine, gentleness, and familiarity.

Information Afia C. would like to know about your pet

I appreciate knowing your pet’s daily routine, feeding schedule, and any medical or behavioral considerations in advance. Details about energy level, leash manners, sensitivities, comfort items, and preferred activities are especially helpful. The more I understand your pet’s needs and personality, the better I can provide calm, consistent, and thoughtful care.

A typical day

Activities are tailored to each pet’s energy level and personality. This may include relaxed walks, gentle play, enrichment through toys or scent games, and quiet companionship. I prioritize quality time and engagement that feels natural and comforting, whether that’s movement, play, or simply being present. The goal is always a happy, calm, and well-cared-for pet rather than overstimulation.

Auntie Afia: Pets Spoiled Daily 🐾

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is a calm, attentive approach and a strong respect for routine, boundaries, and trust. I work with a limited number of pets to ensure unhurried, high-quality care and a low-stress environment. I’m especially comfortable with senior pets, small breeds, and animals who need extra patience, consistency, or gentle handling.

Afia started coming over in January and has been a wonderful addition to Lucky's welfare team. She was patient with the structured introductions he requires in order for him to allow new humans into his life, and continues to expand on his enrichment opportunities through their interactions and training with new food puzzles. Afia clearly cares about the well-being of dogs in her charge. I'd recommend her to anyone.

Afia was wonderful with Ginger today. She was incredibly thorough, patient, and took the time to work with her at Ginger’s pace, which I really appreciated. Ginger can be a high-energy dog, and it’s clear Afia understands how to handle that in a calm, positive way. I left feeling confident that Ginger was in great hands, and I’m so happy we’ve found her. Highly recommend!

Afia stepped in when our first sitter went MIA after we had already left for our trip and we were so grateful!! Our pup loved her, she was incredibly communicative, and I had no worries at all. Would definitely book again.

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.
