Highlights
Pet care experience
Love & Scritches
In my free time, I volunteer for the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria! I have formal animal care training on dogs, cats, and small mammals through my volunteer work, as well as a lot of personal animal experience. I’ve grown up around animals (mainly dogs) my whole life-- in all shapes, sizes, temperments. I’ve also cared for cats, rabbits, hamsters, fish, and more, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of pets and personalities. Most of my own dogs have been rescues, which taught me patience, empathy, and how to earn a pet’s trust. I’m currently missing having a dog at home, so spending time with your furry family members is the next best thing!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When I’m in your home, my goal is to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved—just like you never left. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, preferences, and personality so I can keep things consistent and stress-free. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure your home is left just as you left it (or better!).
Ratings and reviews
Ajia did a fantastic job taking care of our kitten Millie! She gave great updates on how Millie was doing each day, cuddled with her, played with her a ton, and made sure to redirect her energy whenever she was up to something she shouldn’t be. Would highly recommend (:
Ajia was a wonderful sitter for our two goldendoodles. She was incredibly communicative and it was clear she cared for our dogs so well, especially with one of them being a very anxious guy. We loved getting updates and photos each day! I would highly recommend her to anyone else and we would definitely ask her to watch our dogs again!
Ajia was fantastic with my cat and will be my first choice if I need a sitter again!
Will absolutely be re-booking with Ajia. She took great care of my senior cat, making sure my cat and house made it through a bad heat wave. Really appreciated the daily updates and pictures.
Ajia is incredible! My dog can be a little timid at first, but he loves her. She very responsive, prompt, and caring! Will definitely keep her at the top of my list for future trips.
Always super responsive and kind.
