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!).

Information Ajia L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. I am comfortable and able to accommodate a variety of temperaments and needs.

A typical day

I will feed and care for your pet according to their normal eat/sleep/bathroom schedule as much as possible. Depending on your dog's physical needs and tolerances, I love to start my days outside, whether that's in your yard or for a quick morning walk. I'll play and snuggle with your pet throughout the day and complete a midday walk. Typically, after your pet eats dinner and before bed, I'll do a last walk.

Love & Scritches

Pet care experience

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!

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.
