Experienced care that makes a bff

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Fatima... a few things before getting to know me, I highly suggest each dog have their bordetella vaccine prior to boarding to keep the environment healthy and clean (it's not mandatory but board your pup at your own risk). It's beneficial to you and me if you thoroughly read everything about me before requesting a service. There is a WAITLIST - if you don't responsed within 12 hours, your spot will be given to the next person in line. I am a former veterinarian technician I enjoy movies, coffee shops, and working out. In the past I’ve been a volunteer for a few rescue organizations working closely with dogs and cats in different life stages. I also worked with horses and other exotic pets throughout my life and working at a pet store gave me more experience. I have handled all sorts of animals since I was very young and focused on rescuing and rehoming as much as I could. More recently I started working at a veterinarian hospital to learn more about animals and gain more experience in handling difficult pets. During my time there I was able to learn medical diagnosis and spot symptoms to certain medical conditions. I also gained more experience in administering medication and injections. I absolutely adore animals, they have been a huge part of my life. I have my own dog his name is Hank he's a english bulldog. Most importantly I am very responsible and organized, anyone who knows me knows they can count on me without hesitation to care for their pet. If its okay with you, I love taking the dogs on adventures with me so they get the socialization and attention from other people and animals, plus the exercise is great!

I had the pleasure of hiring Fatima to babysit my beloved dog Momo, and I must say, she did an excellent job. From the moment I met her, I could tell she had a genuine love and passion for animals. Fatima was extremely reliable and always arrived on time, which gave me peace of mind knowing that Momo was in good hands. She followed all of my instructions regarding Momo's feeding and exercise routine, ensuring that she remained happy and healthy during her care. One thing that stood out to me was Fatima's dedication to Momo's well-being. She took the time to understand her unique personality and preferences, adapting her approach to meet her needs. Whether it was going for long walks, playing fetch, or simply giving her plenty of cuddles, Fatima made sure that Momo felt loved and cared for. Furthermore, Fatima's communication skills were exceptional. She kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which I appreciated greatly. It gave me peace of mind knowing that Momo was enjoying herself and was in good spirits. I also appreciated Fatima's attention to detail. She went above and beyond for Momo. Highly recommend hiring her for your petsitting needs!

Availability

I am available 24/7 to care for your pet. I am currently devoting all of my time to petsitting and fostering animals. Although I really enjoyed working at a veterinary clinic, I prefer more hands on, one on one experience with animals rather than just the medical side of things. My long-term goal is to create a foundation which will open a rehabilitation farm for animals
