She is an amazing sitter. I booked the wrong dates and she was still able to accommodate my needs. Daily updates about my pets. I will definitely be using her services again 10/10

Shabnam did a great job caring for my fur baby! She gave updates and sent pictures and videos throughout his stay. I felt very confident in her capabilities of varying for him as soon as we met for the meet and great and my pup instantly made himself at home.

Sabnam kept my 2 dogs for a week, and she sent me text with pictures regularly. She and her son walked them often and care for them like their own dog.i can tell my dogs are being spoiled there. She has a a very good size and safe house to accommodate my dogs need. I will recommend her to anyone in need of service and i will let my dogs stay there again.

I cannot recommend this pet sitter highly enough! I have a Chihuahua who doesn’t like anyone except my husband (sometimes she doesn’t care for me in her space), a Feist dog who thinks everyone is her new best friend, plus a cat with the normal aloof cat personality that also needed care while I was away. She handled all three of them with incredible patience, love, and professionalism. What impressed me the most was how well she understood each of their unique personalities and adjusted her care to meet their needs. She sent multiple pictures and videos every day, which gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to truly relax while I was away. The biggest surprise was that she somehow won over my Chihuahua—who is normally very aggressive toward everyone but my husband —and actually got her to cuddle with her! That alone speaks volumes about her calm demeanor, patience, and genuine love for animals. Knowing my pets were safe, happy, and loved made all the difference. I will absolutely be using her services again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their furry family members.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard with a pool if your babies love to play in the water. My house is my safe haven. I make sure that your fur babies are loved and cared for in a safe environment.

A typical day

Instead of a quick potty break, turn walks into mini-adventures: Sniffari Walks • Let the dog lead (safely). • Allow plenty of sniffing time — sniffing is mental exercise. • Explore new routes or parks. Training Walks • Practice “sit” at corners. • Work on leash manners. • Reward calm behavior around distractions. Scavenger Walk • Hide a few treats along a quiet path. • Encourage them to “find it.” Why it’s great: Mental stimulation tires dogs out more than just physical activity. ⸻ 🧠 2. Puzzle & Brain Games Dogs love problem-solving. Treat Puzzles • Use puzzle toys or make your own with: • Muffin tins + tennis balls • Towel rolled with hidden treats • Cardboard boxes Find the Treat • Hide treats around the house. • Say “go find it!” • Increase difficulty over time. Name the Toy Game • Teach them to identify toys by name. • Ask for specific ones. Great for rainy days or high-energy breeds.

Shabnam can host up to 8 pets per night
• Age – Puppy, adult, or senior? Puppies need training and supervision. Seniors may need medication or gentle care. • Breed (or mix) Helps you anticipate energy level and temperament. For example, a Border Collie mix needs more stimulation than a laid-back bulldog. • Weight & Size Important in case of emergencies or leash control. ⸻ 🧠 2. Personality & Temperament Ask: • Is the dog friendly with strangers? • Do they have separation anxiety? • Are they fearful of loud noises? • Any aggression history (dogs, cats, kids, food)? You want to know: • How they react to doorbells • If they guard toys or food • If they are escape artists This protects you and the dog. 🏡 3. Daily Routine Dogs thrive on consistency. Ask: • Feeding schedule & portion sizes • Walk times and duration • Potty schedule • Bedtime routine • Crate use (if any) Following their normal routine reduces stress while owners are away. ⸻ 💊 4. Medical & Health Information Very important. • Any medications? (dosage + timing) • Allergies? • Special diet? • Recent injuries? • Vet contact info • Emergency contact person Also ask: • Are vaccines up to date? • Are they spayed/neutered? ⸻ 🦴 5. Training & Commands • What commands do they know? • Leash behavior? • House trained? • Any problem behaviors? Example: Do they jump on guests? Do they pull hard on leash? Do they counter surf? Knowing this prevents surprises. ⸻ 🚪 6. Safety & House Rules • Are they allowed on furniture? • Can they be left alone? For how long? • Any rooms off limits? • How do they behave when someone knocks?
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.
