Information Sakinat A. would like to know about your pet

For boarding: if your dog is crate trained, unfortunately i don’t have one anymore so you will have to bring that over. Especially for longer stays. Also i have a cat who is used to dogs, so only cat-friendly dogs can be boarded. I can keep them in separate rooms/floors of the house if needed though. Just let me know your preferences and/or limitations and we’ll work on a solution together!

A typical day

I love going to a dog park near me that feels like an obstacle course even for me! I also like playing interactive games and providing sensory experiences.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of my neighbors dogs since i was 11. My first job was a dog walker/sitter but i just liked being able to play with pets. Overtime that evolved into me taking care of my friends’ pets (cats, dogs, birds, fish, plants…) when they went out of town. I set and stick to schedules so they get the timely care and attention they need. I also send texts/facetime/pictures updates to pet owners

Thank you Sakinat for being available to come and walk Duke so last minute! I also really appreciate how proactive and considerate you were with getting to know Duke as best as you could before the walk. Thanks for bringing my puppy back home safe and sound.

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.
