“Aaron stayed in my home for two weeks looking after my diabetic older cat. While my cat is not on insulin, it was such a comfort for me knowing Aaron was there and he took great care of him! I believe Aaron has a way with animals and befriended my shy kitty after a day or two. I knew I had made the right decision when we returned and my cat was very content. We will definitely have Aaron cat sit for us again! He was very dependable and personable. Thank you so much!!”

About: I have taken care of family and friends dogs for as long as I can remember. From feeding, grooming, picking up their droppings, and walking. I have experience in older dogs and have assist on administering medication. Only have experience in neonatal care for kittens. Other skills include: -Deep cleaning and administrating medication for flea prevention. -Using a variety of automatic feeders and chip-reader feeders. -Deep cleaning mechanical feeders and water bowl. -Neonatal kitten care: Bottle feeding, stimulating their elimination, keeping safe, warm, and clean. I’m currently part time and will be available during the afternoon and weekends! I can do other times if I’m somehow available or have enough notice. I currently have two cats! Harlow (3) and Sasha (4), I love them so much and want to give them the best life! Ways I do this is… enough toys, tall cat tree, and bird feeder to stimulate them mentally and physically so they won’t be bored or act out due to boredom. I feed them grain-free food and treats to make sure their tummy’s are healthy (they’re also very picky)! I clean their litter box twice a day and deep clean it weekly to prevent soils outside the litter box. I snuggle with them as much as I possible can!

“We had booked a ski trip to Beach Mountain and had to bring our German Shepherd last minute due to a recent diagnosis of epilepsy. We were too worried to leave her alone so the night before we booked Bella to sit with Lola for the day. Bella was absolutely amazing with our Lola! She was understanding of all of her medication's, emergency, rescue meds, and how to respond in the event of a seizure. While we were gone, Bella sent us pictures and updates of Lola. I could tell that she was so happy to have Bella there to keep her company! If ever, we are back in town we will be booking Bella again. I highly recommend her if you are in the area!”

Pet care is always a joy to me, as a college student I try I balance life and school the same.

My own animals at home which range from a variety of large farm animals and regular domesticated animals, I have a deep respect for animals and how they feel living in their environment. I believe all animals deserve the same treatment and respect, whether that be regular feeding and walking or even just playing with toys, I love making them feel special and comfortable.
