Yale Postdoc & cat mom
Pet care experience
I am currently a postdoc at Yale and completed my PhD student in tumor biology in DC. I love animals ! I have a 9 and 2 year old cat of my own and previously fostered a dog for 1 year . In the past , I have taken care of dogs , and cats , of friends, clients and co- workers and I enjoy every minute of it ! I have gotten a number of jobs by word of mouth and am happy to provide recommendations . I love to go on long walks and even run with dogs so will provide great exercise ! I also volunteer at the Greater New Haven Cat Project. Note: I have become especially skilled in caring for anxious dogs.
Reviews
Thank you so much again for sitting with the kitties! I feel 100% better knowing they are well looked after :)
This was our third time Aileen has watched our pups and she’s always amazing!! It’s such a relief not to worry while we travel.
Aileen took amazing care of our kitties! We have two young cats, one of them staying alone without us for the first time, and she did great with Aileen ? ? Will definitely be hoping Aileen can look after them the next time we go away.
I downloaded Rover for the first time recently and Aileen was one of the first people to get in contact with me and I have to say I'm so happy we found each other! She made me feel at ease with leaving my dog with her while I was traveling and gave me updates on her all the time. My dog loved her and her cat JJ! Honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. Thank you Aileen!

My older cat has grown up around foster and visiting dogs. My younger cat has only met one dog and was indifferent to her. If I’m staying at your place, I set up expectation beforehand for both of us and am very respectful of your space and your animal’s needs

I would like to know any rules that you would like to be enforced as to not disrupt your dogs' day-to-day routine. Additionally, any quirks or anxieties!
A typical day
I love to walk and explore New Haven and what better way to do it than with a pup! I’m good at reading your pups body language and not reacting strongly and riling them up.

I work in a lab and have flexibility with start/ end time! My building is dog and cat friendly. My limitation is I cannot currently care for puppies.
