Back home, I grew up working closely with animals—caring for my own pets, managing kennels, and even working on wildlife breeding farms where I had the incredible opportunity to care for big cats like lions and tigers. My love for animals only grew stronger over the years, and when I moved to Canada, I was fortunate to receive job offers from PetSmart and PetValue. Unfortunately, schedule conflicts kept me from joining, but I’m excited to now be jumping into the pet care world through the Rover app, where I can share my experience and passion for animals with pet owners here in Canada.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to create a routine that’s familiar and comforting for them. I follow the owner’s guidelines closely whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime preferences, or special care instructions and ensure their environment remains safe and clean. I always make time for exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection.

Information Shahzada A. would like to know about your pet

I try to learn about the pets before I meet them for the first ever time. I try to learn about the environment they grew up in and what are the things that they don't like. I also try to learn about their behaviour with new people and if they have any medical condition I should know about.

A typical day

Some people find it funny but for me I like to talk to the pets all the time. I believe that after you spend some time with them they start understanding and try to communicate with us as well. I also like to play ball games with them and try teaching them new commands as well.

Your Pet’s New Favorite Sitter!

Pet care experience

Hey there! I’m an animal lover with hands-on experience in both kennels and wildlife care, and I’m all about giving animals the best care possible. Whether it’s making sure your furry friend feels right at home in a kennel or helping rehabilitate wildlife in their natural habitat, I’ve got it covered. I’m passionate about animal well-being, from keeping them safe and comfortable to ensuring they’re happy and healthy. I’ve got experience working with all kinds of animals, from the playful pups and curious cats at the kennel to the more unique creatures in wildlife care. I know how to handle all kinds of situations, whether it’s a rambunctious pet or a wildlife rescue in need of special attention. My goal is to make sure every animal gets the best care, and every pet owner leaves with a smile. Let’s just say, when it comes to animals, I’m the person you can trust to treat them like family!

I have been so happy with Shahzada's time with my dog, Chewy. The are so bonded and enjoy their time together. Shahzada has moved and will no longer be able to walk Chewy regularly. We are so sad to lose him. If you are looking for a dog walker, check out his profile. He is the best.

Shahzada continues to walk my dog five days a week, and my dog continues to be excited and dance when he arrives. I am grateful for Shahzada.

Shahzada considered the sizzling weather today and decided to walk my dog in the evening when it was a bit cooler. I appreciate the care he takes, and his willingness to adjust his schedule for the comfort and safety of my dog. You can't do better than that.

Shahzada is a great dog walker. My dog can't wait for him to arrive and dances as soon as he sees him. Shahzada walks my dog to interesting places, gives water when needed, and brings him home tired and happy.
