Caring for pets is my full-time job, my hobby, and my lifestyle. I am a relief veterinary nurse who only works at the pet hospital occasionally every month, and the rest of my time is spent at home training, playing with, and enriching the lives of my dogs, foster dogs- and yours. On Rover, I keep myself limited on the number of pets I care for daily and weekly so I can ensure your pets stick to their schedule and have all their needs met above and beyond.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog will live like my dogs. They'll join me on daily walks exploring the local parks and neighborhoods, play tug and fetch, snuggle on the couch with treats, enjoy dinner in a puzzle toy, and settle down at night in a clean, cozy dog bed. As for cats, I know that they don't care about my routine- just their own! I'm happy to bend to any kitties will and make sure they don't stress too much about mom and dad going out of town. If your doggie is still a puppy or a little wily, you and I can discuss and set up training sessions we can do together throughout their time in my home or when we're out on walks together.

Information Aaron G. would like to know about your pet

While I'm open to short notice gigs, I'm always available if you'd like to do a meet and greet before I become your pet sitter! When you reach out to me, I'll ask you about your dogs daily schedule, diet, if they have any medical needs or relevant history, and how they get along with people and pets.

A typical day

My dogs are at home at Lake Fayetteville, and the other great trails around town. Your pup can tag along for long hikes, frisbee, and flirt pole games by the lake, or enjoy an easy stroll in their neighborhood. I have a closet stock full of puzzle toys and brain games to keep them mentally enriched even when they're pooped from playing! For additional fees, I'd love to invite your dog along to swim and jump from the dock at a local pool facility. I also offer a go-home groom including bathing, brushing, blow-drying, and pedicure.

Your Pet's Second Best Friend

Pet care experience

I am a Certified Veterinary Technician student, I've gone through extensive dog training certification, I've fostered many litters of kittens and puppies as well as elderly and special needs dogs, I've managed play groups and scrubbed kennels at doggy daycares, I've llent my hand at local shelters and rescues... When it comes to dogs, I don't just dabble, I jump right in! My home has three full-time doggy housemates- Donner, and his friends Oscar and Charlie- who are eager to show your pup around and teach them all the best spots to dig holes in the yard or bark at squirrels! And when it comes to your sitting or walking in your home and neighborhood, I have all the tools of the trade on my belt, including the best cookies, treats, and toys. My fear-free certification makes me the best friend to cats, who tend to be less excited about strangers. I have so much fostering experience with difficult cats and kittens, and I absolutely love the nervous cats (and dogs!).

If you want a great pet sitter, look no further! Aaron was a fantastic pet/house sitter for my 2 boys. It was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better choice in pet sitter. Aaron was very patient with all my questions & concerns. My place was also left very tidy when I returned home at the end of my trip. I'd give more than 5 stars if I could.

Aaron was so great with my cat, Peach! She is super shy and she loved snuggling with him. He’s very responsive and left my house so clean. Will book again :)
