I currently am in graduate school, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and I love spending as much time as I can with man's best friend. I live next to Central Park, and love taking them for walks there and to do the dog park!

Owner away? I walk, sit and stay

Pet care experience

I love all animals, but I have a special place in my heart for dogs. I have been pet sitting dogs for over 4 years. I believe that it is important to take each dog's individual personality and preferences into account when caring for them. I enjoy all kinds of walks, from strolls around the block, jogs or lengthy hikes in the park!

Shaiza was absolutely amazing! She is so sweet and we felt immediately that Charlie would be in great hands when speaking to her. She took amazing care of Charlie, took lots of pictures, and sent updates throughout the day. She was also very accommodating for pick-up, when we had a last minute hiccup. Thank you, Shaiza! We will absolutely book you again in the future!

Khufu always has a blast when he is staying with Shaiza. She is very detailed oriented, always make sure he is comfortable during his stay and constantly provides updates throughout the day via photos and videos. Highly recommended! Thanks Shaiza.

Shaiza watched our 7 year old Australian shepherd mix for about a week. She took great care of him and shared plenty of pictures. Will be booking her again
