Happy tail wags guaranteed🐾

Hi there! I’m Aya, I’m a dog mom to a sweet 3-year-old labradoodle (peep the 2nd & 3rd pics!). I know firsthand how much love, patience, and consistency our furry friends need. Since 2023, I’ve been volunteering with Muddy Paws Rescue as a Dog Handler and Adoption Finalizer, and walking pups of all shapes and sizes with PAWS NY. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, training walks, or extra TLC, you can absolute bet that I’ll treat all pups as THE BEST pup in the world!

Safety, trust & environment

My pup used to have a bad habit of sneaking forbidden snacks on our walks so having raised her, I’ve always been hyper vigilant about making sure pups stay safe and allow them to sniff things (not TOO close though), but not consume!

We booked Aya on short notice during our wedding. I felt so confident my dog was in good hands the whole time. She took so many photos and our dog Yumi looked totally at peace and well cared for, thank you Aya!!

Schedule

I work full time, but outside of a few meetings that I can’t move around, my schedule is fairly flexible during the day and I’m available most evenings. And, if your dog is comfortable/good with other dogs, my pup loves other dogs and always loves an exercise buddy!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Aya can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I require a brief in-person Meet & Greet (can meet at your home!) before booking new pups so we can discuss any quirks or preferences your pup may have and so your pup isn’t surprised when we start going on walks :)
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.
