Hi, my name is Ali and I’m excited to be your next pet-sitter on Rover! I have been around dogs all my life, grew up with pets as a child and have volunteered with animal rescue organizations in my home country. I appreciate how quality of life increases when opening up your home to a dog and enjoy being around pups as much as I can. Though I can’t have a pet at the moment, pet-sitting is a way for me to stay connected to my four-legged friends as much as I can. I am approachable, trustworthy and responsible. I work as a UX designer—for those who don’t know, UX stands for User Experience, which means my whole job is focused on understanding the needs of people and anticipating what design features would help make their lives easier. This philosophy extends to my work as a pet-sitter as well—I will always be thinking about anticipating your needs and will be sure to communicate with you regularly in order to provide the best possible care. Additionally, I have a flexible schedule and can alter my day to suit your needs.
