We’re excited to recognize Khadiza “Shatee” Sadia as Senior Pet Care Specialist at Pet Sitting 4 Comfort®.


Shatee joined PS4C in 2025 as our first employee and has grown into a trusted member of our care team.


Her promotion recognizes the skill, reliability, and responsibility she has demonstrated while caring for PS4C pets throughout Arlington.

What This Means for Your Pet

As a Senior Pet Care Specialist, Shatee is trusted with more complex care routines and situations that require strong judgment.


Her experience includes:

  • Senior and special-needs pets

  • Medication routines

  • Anxious and shy pets

  • Multi-pet households

  • Detailed care instructions

  • Changes in health or behavior

  • Unexpected situations during visits


She also knows when something needs to be documented, communicated, or escalated.


For pet parents, this means another experienced caregiver who can provide dependable care and keep you informed.

How Shatee Earned the Role

Since joining PS4C, Shatee has:

  • Become a confident independent caregiver

  • Built relationships with long-term clients and pets

  • Taken on more complex care routines

  • Supported busy weekends and holidays

  • Earned positive client feedback

  • Continued her professional education


Her hands-on experience includes dog walking, cat sitting, medication administration, overnight care, senior pet care, and behavior-sensitive care.


At PS4C, advancement is based on demonstrated performance—not simply tenure.

Professional Training

Shatee’s training includes:

  • PSI Certified Professional Pet Sitter (CPPS)

  • Fear Free® Pet Sitter

  • Pet First Aid and CPR

  • Karen Pryor Academy Train Your Cat coursework

  • Human CPR and AED training


That education supports safer, calmer, and more attentive care in each pet’s home.

A Stronger PS4C Team

Shatee’s promotion strengthens our small, fully in-house team as Christina Nguyen, our Pet Care Specialist in Training, continues preparing for independent visits.


Together, Steve, Hong, Shatee, and Christina work to provide:

  • Familiar caregivers

  • Consistent routines

  • Clear communication

  • Detailed visit reports

  • Reliable coverage


Having more than one familiar caregiver also helps us maintain continuity when schedules change or additional coverage is needed.

Owner-Led Care Remains Hands-On

As PS4C grows, Steve and Hong remain directly involved in care and daily operations.


Steve continues providing pet sitting, dog walking, medication support, senior and special-needs care, meet and greets, and team training.


Hong leads much of our client communication, scheduling, and care coordination while assisting with in-home care when needed.


Together, they continue overseeing PS4C’s care standards and team development.
