Pet care experience

Your Dogs New Bestie 🐶

What sets me apart is a lifetime of genuine love and hands on experience with dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m new to Rover but not new to caring for my furry friends. I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly understand what it takes to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable. I've provided overnight care, daily walks/jogs, hikes and plenty of affection with many happy, returning clients who trust me like family. Whether it's a playful puppy who needs training or a gentle senior, I tailor my care to each dog's needs, always ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well exercised. I have an abundance of love for animals!

Khadijah took great care of our Double Trouble Bandits (Jack Russell Terrior and Chihuahua Mix) LOL. She was extremely patient even with all of the initial barking. They both settled and eventually snuggled up with her. Thank you again and we would love to have you house sit again in the future.

Dog Walking • Oct 15, 2025

My dog’s experience with Khadija was wonderful. I reached out to her for dog walking / sitting services, as my day-to-day schedule doesn’t allow me to step away long enough to get my dog his much needed exercise. When she arrived, my excitable dog quickly calmed down and was ready to play and walk. She returned with a tired pup who enjoyed his time outside. My dog tried to follow her out when she left. I don’t know that I can give a stronger recommendation than that!

Khadijah was absolutely phenomenal! Leaving you pet with someone new can rattle the nerves but I felt so comfortable with Khadijah watching my pup. She provided great updates and wonderful pictures. She also responded at any point I messaged her promptly. I’d highly recommend Khadijah for your pet services.

Khadijah was super sweet. She communicated very well while I was out of town and Slayer was very well taken care of. Will definitely recommend and will be using her again! Great experience.

Schedule

Pet sitting is perfect for my weekly routine! I’ve been wanting a puppy but living in an apartment prevents me from committing! I need the exercise just as much as these puppies do.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for dogs in clients’ homes with crates and yards, I always follow the routine and preferences you're comfortable with. If your dog is crate-trained, I make sure the crate remains a safe, calm space. I keep it clean, cozy, and follow your timing for crate use. If there's a yard, I supervise outdoor time closely, making sure the space is secure and your dog stays safe and active. I balance playtime, exercise, and downtime based on your dog’s energy and comfort level, always keeping your instructions at the center of care. When walking I am physically fit to protect and play with your baby!

A typical day

A typical day with the pets I watch includes morning walks or jogs, followed by playtime with fetch or disc games in the park. I'll take them on a hike if they enjoy outdoor adventures, or visit a dog park for socializing and running. Throughout the day, I make sure they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation.

What is your dog's daily routine, including feeding times, walks, and playtime? Does your dog have any behavioral issues or triggers (e.g., anxiety, aggression, fears)? Is your dog on any medications or special treatments I need to be aware of? Are there any specific activities your dog enjoys (e.g., fetch, running, hiking)? How does your dog typically react to new people or other dogs? Does your dog have any allergies or sensitivities? Is there anything I should avoid doing with your dog or any places they prefer to be left alone?
