Pet care experience

I will treat your dog as my own!

Hello! My name is Shadiqua, and I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! 😊 As someone who is on the exciting journey of finding the perfect dog for my new home, what better way to learn about different breeds than by offering my dog-sitting and walking services? Not only will I help you by taking excellent care of your pets, but this will also give me the opportunity to see which breeds I connect with the most. It’s a win-win situation in my book, lol!! I pride myself on being down-to-earth and fun and loving, and I believe that animals and kids are drawn to my positive energy. I genuinely love spending time with them, and I have a knack for making them feel comfortable and happy. Your pet will be treated as if it were my own, receiving all the attention, care, and love it deserves. When it comes to taking care of your furry friends, I follow your instructions to a tee. Just let me know their likes, dislikes, routines, and any special needs they may have. I will ensure they stick to their schedule and enjoy every moment of our time together. I’ll also send you plenty of photos and videos so you can see for yourself how much fun we’re having and have peace of mind knowing your little one is in good hands. But my love for animals isn’t limited to dogs—I adore cats too! Whether you have a playful pup or a curious kitty, I’m here to make your pet’s experience stress-free and enjoyable. Just some updates and policies. If you would like me too, I can provide a bath to your animal. Any additional bath will cost a $15 grooming fee. A

I can always count on Shadiqua to take great care of my pets! She's my first choice whenever I'm headed out of town.

Shadiqua was wonderful. We reached out on super short notice after another sitter stopped responding and she met me at her house in the middle of her work day so we could drop Calli off before heading to the airport. Calli loved staying with her and we are so grateful!

Shadiqua was wonderful with my dog, who can be difficult with strangers. She was very understanding and accommodating, making sure my pet felt safe and comfortable during her overnight stay. Pick up and drop off were prompt and easy. Overall, Shadiqua was communicative, reliable, and a great to work with. I'll look forward to booking her again!

Safety, trust & environment

I ensure a safe, loving environment, offering constant attention and regular updates through photos and videos to keep owners informed and at ease.

A typical day

A fun typical day with me as your pet sitter is filled with outdoor adventures and plenty of playtime. I love spending time outside, and I'm lucky to have several parks within walking distance, including some great dog parks. If it's okay with you, I'll take your dog to the dog park to play and interact with other dogs. After a fun-filled park visit, I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of belly rubs and maybe a little dance time or just some pure relaxation, depending on their personality. Whether your dog loves energetic activities or prefers a calm, cozy time, I'll ensure they have a delightful and tailored experience.

It's important to know your pet's likes, dislikes, routines, and any special needs ahead of time. Understanding their personality, dietary restrictions, and exercise preferences helps me provide the best care. Please share any specific instructions or quirks so I can ensure your pet feels comfortable and happy.
