Pet care experience

No pet too big or too small!

I have had cats and dogs ranging from 2.5 pounds to 100 pounds and I love everything in between! I grew up with a bloodhound, a black lab, and two chihuahuas. All of them had some kind of health problems so I’m used to animals with health problems and senior dogs as well. I currently have an 8 year old black lab and she is the sweetest dog! She still acts like a puppy so the spastic hyper animals are my forte! I will absolutely treat your baby like you would and give him/her lots and lots of love! I am a full time college student, so generally I have school Monday and Wednesday for two hours in the morning and then nothing for the rest of the day. I work Friday-Saturday but I can do late walks or drop ins those days. Just shoot me a message and I can see what I can do!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

As someone who has had pets with anxiety, I strive to make them comfortable in their own home or out on walks. All the ball throws, snuggles, and treats they could ever imagine!

Malia was so awesome to work with! She took wonderful care of our kittens, and was very communicative. She even met with us twice beforehand so she could learn their routines and such. We highly recommend her!

Malia was absolutely amazing. One of our dogs is incredibly shy and nervous around new people, but Malia was great with her, and our timid girl warmed up to her quicker than I thought possible. She took excellent care of them and sent pictures and updates while we were gone. If we’re ever in need of a dog sitter again, we’ll definitely use Malia!

Malia and her family did an amazing job of looking after our dog, Chewie. She kept us updated while we were away and handled our dog’s anxiety at night like a pro. She’s fantastic with dogs and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

Dog Walking • Jun 30, 2021

I needed Malia last minute and she was fantastic! She sent plenty of pictures and even a video! Nobody has ever sent me a video of my boy. She communicates clearly, goes above and beyond walking my dog, and has a very gentle nature about her. Goose is lucky to have Malia and your fur child would, too.

Schedule

I am a full time college student but most of my classes are online so my availability is pretty open. I work Monday, Friday, and Saturday every week and those days I don’t generally get off work until 7-8pm so I can do walks or drop-ins after work on those days.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Malia can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
I accept any and all dogs! I don’t believe any certain breed is more aggressive than another, they’re all a perfect, although I would like to know if your dog is aggressive or hyper. Also please let me know exactly how you want him/her to be taken care of a.k.a how much food, how often, if they have a special hiding spot, etc.
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.
