Rover Sitter For Over 5 Years!
Pet care experience
Note to all my existing clients from NoVa: I am no longer in the area :( Hey there! Thanks for checking out my profile. I'm originally from New York where I grew up with different dogs, including one that had puppies. I relocated to Northern Virginia when I was a teenager and couldn't have a pet because I lived in an apartment. I would occasionally take care of family friends' dogs. I began dog sitting through Rover summer of 2014 and it became my favorite side gig. My main reason for house sitting primarily is because for a lot of pups, their owners going out of town can be stressful. When they're in their own environment and following their regular routine, they begin to calm down. It's also soothing to have someone around the house giving them attention. I can stay overnight any day of the week and I rarely travel so I'm also available most holidays.I'm a college student and I don't work (besides rover) which gives me plenty of time to spoil your pups :) I'm very quick to respond and I am organized. I have my own car so I will never run into a transportation issue. I'm experienced with different breeds, ages, medical conditions, etc. I am also very good with dogs who have separation anxiety. I can also bring in mail, packages. water plants, take out trash, etc. while you are gone so you can have a peace of mind. I am also experienced with administering oral medication via pill pocket, peanut butter, etc. I'm new to the area and I'm so excited to meet the pups of Harrisonburg (and surrounding cities)!!
Reviews
Amira was amazing to work with! She took time to meet my dogs before our trip so they could get acquainted with her and they warmed up to her immediately. She kept us completely updated and sent pictures everyday to put as at ease. Would definitely recommend and will be asking her to dogsit for us again :)
Amira was great with our two dogs for the weekend. They felt at ease with her right away and the pics of them playing while we were gone showed how comfortable they felt. She was reliable and responded quickly to communication. We'll book with her again!
Amira took the time to come out for a (rescheduled) meet and greet and the pups immediately loved her. She sent pictures and updates throughout her visit. The house and dishes were clean and everything was put back in its place upon our return. The most important thing is that the pups were so happy when we got home. They were able to stay in their normal surroundings and that provided so much relief while we scooted away. We will absolutely be asking for Amira to come love on the puppers again.
Amira did a great job keeping my pup happy while I was away.

Skills
Information Amira S. would like to know about your pet
All clients leave detailed instructions with schedules, house information, etc. which helps me make sure everyone's getting the best service. I would like to know the age and breed. I would like to know whether or not your pup is housebroken and how often they need to be let out. I would also like to know how your pup is around other dogs. Regardless, I will avoid other dogs but it's good to know. Information regarding allergies and medications is also useful. There's no one size fits all when it comes to dog sitting so I will do my best to make sure your pup gets the love and care they deserve!
A typical day
I'm here to give you and your pups a peace of mind. While I'm at your house, I will give your loved one(s) plenty of love and attention. I like to play music in the background to help soothe them. I also like to maintain their normal schedule so they have a balanced vacation. If you have a fenced in yard and the weather is nice, we will play outside a lot. If not, your pup will still be going out several times a day for fresh air and many chances to empty their bladders.
