About: Hi y’all, I’m Aza! I am a caring and reliable pet sitter serving the Belle Harbor/ Rockaway Park area. I have 2 kitties of my own. I also had a large dog for 15 years. I am comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I always make sure they get the exercise, attention, and love they need. Over the past few years, I’ve worked with a local cat rescue and fostered 6 cats before adopting the last two. Many of my fosters came to me shy and scared, and I’ve had great success helping them feel safe, build and adjust to new people and homes. I’m available most weekdays and flexible on weekends. Please don’t hesitate to message me to ask for availability. I can make exceptions and squeeze you in last minute if I can. I am not currently employed so my schedule is very flexible. My rates are very reasonable. When caring for your pets, I’m attentive, punctual, and treat them like my own. I make sure they’re fed on time, walked or played with, and always safe. I’m careful with doors, mindful of their surroundings, and happy to give medication if needed. Very good with litter, keeping bowls clean, and lots of playing. I look forward to meeting your fur baby :) I am available for walks/ check ins most of the time. I do work a few nights a week but I will be updating my calendar and we can work out an arrangement for repeat visits / walks I always make sure your pets are fed on time, walked and played with. I always make sure to close the outside doors quickly after I enter so there’s no chance of your pet accidentally escaping. I’m always mindful of the surroundings. I genuinely enjoy making sure your pet is having a good time by engaging them in playing or just petting them. I am also punctual and experienced with giving your pets medication if they require it.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rockaway Park
I recently booked Alexandra to watch my dogs for five consecutive days in my home. She always came promptly, gave my dogs their breakfast, took them for walks, and gave them so much attention and affection during the hours she was here. She is a kind and lovely person and I highly recommend her!
I highly recommend this dog walker! They were reliable, caring, and took great care of Benji while I was on his walk. Communication was excellent, and I appreciated the updates and photos during each walk. It was clear that Benji was comfortable and happy with them.
My dog liked Ariella right away, which honestly says everything. She has some joint problems, so walks can be a bit tricky, but Ariella found a gentle, thoughtful approach that worked perfectly for her. I really appreciated how patient and attentive she was , it was clear she took the time to understand my dog’s needs and made sure she was comfortable every step of the way. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such caring hands. Highly recommend Ariella to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and truly great with dogs!
