Safety, trust & environment

My own cat is treated like my child—regular feeding schedules, a spotless living space, enrichment, and lots of affection. For clients, I extend that same standard of care. In your home, I maintain your pet's established routines, keep their areas clean, and provide updates so you have peace of mind. In my home, pets are welcomed into a safe, clean environment where they're treated like family. Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priorities.

Information Afrikah S. would like to know about your pet

I work best with trained pets who know their name & respond to basic commands and are socialized around people, dogs, and other animals, as this creates a safer and more relaxed environment. I like to know about any specific behaviors, preferences, or needs your pet has—whether it's food sensitivities, favorite hiding spots, or things that make them anxious. Understanding your pet's personality upfront helps me provide the best care possible and ensures we're a great match!

A typical day

I love taking dogs to their favorite parks where they can really let loose! If your pup has a favorite outdoor game or toy, we'll spend plenty of time playing so they can zoom out all that energy. On our walks, I encourage them to explore and nurture their sense of wonder—every sniff, splash, and discovery is part of the adventure. For cats and other pets, I'll engage them with their preferred toys and activities to keep them entertained and happy!

Pet care experience

I've been a devoted pet parent for 15 years, caring for cats, dogs, and even fish! Whether your pet has paws, fins, or special needs, I bring patience, experience, and plenty of love to every visit. I believe every pet deserves a clean, safe space and the kind of attention that makes tails wag and purrs rumble. Your fur (or fin) baby will be in good hands!

Afrikah is a wonderful dog and house sitter. She is a great communicator who bonded with our dogs, asked great questions, sent photos and updates each day. We came home to happy, tired dogs and a clean house. You will be lucky to get Africah for your dog/ house sits.
