“Ariel is an extremely dedicated and kind dog sitter. When our pup was homesick and struggling, she did everything in her power to provide love and security for our dog. She took the dog on long walks to get out the energy and even went out of her way to purchase bones from Petco for our dog to chew on. We are so appreciative.”

About: Caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I have years of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies needing structure and training, to senior dogs who require patience, mobility support, and medication management. What truly sets me apart is the environment I offer: a spacious, 4-acre fully fenced property, perfect for safe off-leash play, exploration, and exercise. Your dog won’t just be cared for—they’ll have the freedom to run, sniff, and play in a secure and enriching space that most sitters simply can’t provide. I understand that every pet is unique. I tailor my care to fit each dog’s individual needs and personality, whether that means working on basic obedience, managing separation anxiety, or just providing a calm, consistent presence. I'm also experienced in crate training, leash walking, and reading dog body language to ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone. My goal is to give your pet a home-away-from-home experience, and to give you peace of mind while you're away. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to easily accommodate walks, feeding times, play sessions, and potty breaks—without juggling long commutes or unpredictable hours. Pet care is built right into my daily routine. Whether your dog needs a structured walk in the morning, playtime in the afternoon, or cuddles throughout the day, I’m here to provide a calm and consistent environment. For overnight stays or boarding, I’m home in the evenings and overnight, so your pet is rarely left alone. This setup is ideal for dogs who thrive on routine, need extra attention, or simply enjoy being around people. Your pet won’t just be a part of my day—they’ll be the best part of it! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always aim to provide a calm, clean, and secure environment where they feel safe, loved, and stress-free. At my home, dogs enjoy supervised playtime on 4 fully fenced acres, giving them the freedom to explore and exercise without ever being off-leash in an unsafe area. I carefully introduce new dogs to make sure everyone gets along and matches in energy and temperament. Indoors, pets have a cozy, climate-controlled space with access to clean bedding, toys, and plenty of affection. I also stick closely to your dog’s usual routine—mealtimes, medication, crate use, etc.—to help them feel right at home. Above all, I believe in building trust—not just with pets, but with the people who love them most.

“Garrett’s work met or exceeded my expectations at every step. Garrett was a prompt and clear communicator throughout booking and the stay, he contacted me proactively to arrange drop off and pick up, and, importantly, he showed genuine interest in caring for our senior dog. We found Garrett because another sitter on Rover cancelled our reservation at the last minute. Having worked with Garrett, I highly doubt he would have left us in that position if we had booked with him initially. I would recommend Garrett and hope to use his services in the future.”


“Austin was fantastic. Seamless and easy meet, drop off and pickup. Austin is very friendly and genuine about caring for dogs and specifically Scout. He took Scout on some great walks, and he was very loving to Scout. Will book again, 10/10.”



“Casey was great! She is very accommodating, working with me for a last minute boarding, and her dogs winnie and nate were great with my pup. I was nervous at first leaving my dog for the long weekend, especially on such short notice, but immediately felt better seeing how my pup did meeting Casey and her crew for the first time. She was flexible with pick up and drop off times and did everything possible to make my dog and I comfortable with the whole process, sending pictures daily and updates whenever I texted to check in! I cant recommend her enough”


“We had a family emergency and Lauren was very accommodating taking care of our Roxy on short notice. I was relieved when I took Roxy to Lauren's home, as soon as we got out of the car, she was ecstatic to run up and see Lauren. This reaffirmed that Lauren provides loving care for Roxy!”
