Highlights
Pet care experience
Responsible and caring pet sitter
I’ve been around animals my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature. I grew up with a dog and a duck, and have continuously lived in homes with cats and dogs through college and graduate school, so I’m very comfortable with their routines and behavior. I’ve also cared for pets for friends and family over the years, including feeding, walking, cleaning, and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I understand the importance of consistency, attention, and keeping pets on their normal schedule. I also have three tortoises of my own, including one I’ve had for nearly 23 years, which has made me especially attentive to routines, environment, and long-term care. I am currently volunteering at the Kitten Nursery with the Peninsula Humane Society, where I help taking care of kittens too young for adoption.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box or cleanup routines, exercise, and any specific preferences your pet is used to. I take a calm and patient approach, especially with shy or more independent pets, and make sure they feel comfortable in their own space. I also keep the home clean and organized, and treat it with the same respect I would my own. I’m attentive to any changes in behavior or health and will communicate updates regularly so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Excellent as usual!! Thank you Aik 🙏🏾
Aik went above and beyond when I had a time sensitive package unexpectedly delivered while I was out of town. Aik went back to the house 2 extra times to be sure it was put inside without me even asking... I was SO appreciative as it allowed us to enjoy our time away without stressing or having to track down someone else to put it in!
Aik did such an amazing job caring for our dogs (and hermit crab!). He was so attentive to them and provided frequent updates. I highly recommend him!!
Aik is very kind, thorough, reliable and follows instruction perfectly. It is easy to communicate with him and I trust him with my babies. Highly recommend!
Aik was extremely good he sent lots of pictures. My dogs were great when we got home. I would recommend Aik as a pet sitter to anyone.
Aik was the perfect cat sitter! Very friendly, was proactive and took initiative in the care, and was very communicative. He also took very good care of my home and cleaned up all messes. Would definitely work with Aik again, and my cat loved him too! They can tell who good people are. Thanks Aik!

Schedule
I have a very flexible schedule through freelance consulting work, which allows me to be available for pet care most days of the week, including weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate a variety of schedules, whether it’s regular visits or last-minute needs. The only consistent commitment I have is volunteering on Monday afternoons at the Peninsula Humane Society, but outside of that, I’m highly flexible and able to adjust to your pet’s routine.
