Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal Lover and Care Expert 🐾
Animals have always been a huge part of my life! I grew up with both cats and dogs and have loved caring for them for as long as I can remember. I recently graduated from UC Davis with a B.S. in Animal Science, specializing in Captive and Companion Animals, and I’m excited to bring my experience and love for animals to Rover. I’ve also had hands-on experience caring for animals at various exotic animal sanctuaries and wildlife facilities, where I’ve helped with feeding, cleaning, enrichment, handling, and general animal care. Working with a variety of species has taught me to be patient, attentive, and respectful of each animal’s individual personality and needs. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone else, so I treat every animal like they’re my own! Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play, needs a relaxing companion, or is a little shy and takes time to warm up, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away!

I am totally comfortable adhering to any in-home standards you have in place for your pets. This includes crating, strict feeding procedures, and specific behavioral need.
Ratings and reviews
I cannot recommend Ayana highly enough. She has a genuine love for animals that is evident in every interaction. Between caring for her own cat, helping with my cat and dog, her mother's two dogs, and her brother's cat, Ayana has extensive hands-on experience with a variety of pets and personalities. What stands out most is not just her knowledge, but the level of care, patience, and attention she gives each animal. Pets naturally gravitate toward her, and it's clear they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in her presence. Her compassion and understanding of animal behavior consistently show in how well the animals respond to her and thrive under her care. Any pet owner can feel confident knowing their beloved companion is in excellent hands with Ayana.
I have the pleasure of personally knowing Ayana and can confidently say she is not only a lovely gal but very professional and great with animals. She has always helped me in caring for my dogs, cats, and bunny throughout the years. She recently graduated from UC Davis with an Animal Science degree which I find to be a plus and testament to the love she has for animals.
