Pet care experience

From Farm to Litter Box

Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a family that cared for exotic pets, which provided me the opportunity to learn how to connect with various animals from an early age. Over the years, I’ve worked as a farm aide at Turtle Back Zoo in New Jersey, volunteered with animal shelters, and cared for the pets of neighbors, friends, and family. These experiences have taught me that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs—and I genuinely enjoy getting to know them. Today, I’m the proud pawrent of Marlo, my 5-year-old Australian Shepherd, and Nala, my 12-year-old cat. I even prepare fresh food for all of Marlo’s meals. Caring for animals isn’t just something I enjoy, it’s a big part of who I am. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or simply someone trustworthy to keep them comfortable while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Each pet is unique and requires a different type of care. I fully abide by whatever your preferences are for care in your home. Being attentive to the basics (food, water, toys, treats, etc.), but also body language is very important to me. Making sure your pet is as comfortable as possible while you're away is key to a successful caregiver relationship.

Thank you so much Amir for coming to walk Corduroy and circling back to check on him later. I really appreciate that.

Amir is a reliable and attentive dog walker who has been fantastic with my dog, Savage. Whenever he takes care of Savage I know he goes the extra mile to ensure not only a walk but also that Savage receives plenty of attention and exercise, which is always apparent when I return to a content and tired dog. Amir's responsiveness and excellent communication make coordinating plans a breeze. I also value his willingness to accommodate last-minute requests for walks or visits. I highly recommend Amir for his exceptional service and Savage wholeheartedly agrees, giving him a four-paw rating - his highest praise as he's only got four paws to give!

I highly recommend Amir as a pet sitter on Rover.com. Amir watched my dog, Louis, for three weeks and did an amazing job. He were reliable, attentive, and followed all my instructions perfectly. Louis, who can be quite particular, quickly bonded with Amir and was very comfortable and content. Amir’s genuine love for animals was evident in the care and attention they gave Louis. Amir also provided regular updates and photos, giving me peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for a responsible and compassionate pet sitter, Amir is the perfect choice.

Amir cares for my 2 dogs while I’m at work! He’s amazing with Pets and very caring & loving to any pet! Perfect person for the job!!! My 2 dogs love him dearly and I also witness how he cares for his own dog and cat! Amir has a lot of patience with animals. He has helped me so much through the years with my dogs. He is the first person I go to for any type of pet advice! Amir, would be someone you would love & trust around your pets!.

Any information you deem relevant about your pet is important to me. I would like to be informed of temperament, conditions (medication, anxiety, etc.), dietary restrictions, preferred activities and how your pet likes to interact.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
