Animal Lover Looking to Help You
Pet care experience
Hello! I’m Aarynn, an avid pet-lover and animal enthusiast. I’ve grown up around cats, dogs, birds, and fish my entire life and got my first job at a doggy daycare in Bellevue during high school. Ever since then I have been working with animals in a structured setting, gaining experience in grooming, boarding, and basic puppy training all while offering pet sitting regularly throughout the years. Most recently I was an Animal Welfare Specialist at the Nebraska Humane Society where I’ve gained general vet tech experience towards caring for dogs, cats, turtles, chickens, and rodents. I would always come to the shelter extra early every morning to say hello to each dog and give them treats, recording any medical or behavioral concerns I had and going directly to a vet to discuss any animal I felt needed immediate care. I pride myself in earning the trust of every diamond dog and resident rowdy red at the shelter. I can say hi by name to any dog I see walking down the halls! Recently, I was laid off because of to budget cuts due to covid-19, but someday I still dream to work as a behavioral specialist at NHS, working with untrained or hyperactive dogs to help them and their soon-to-be parents live the happy, loving life they deserve in forever homes. Since I am no longer working fulltime, I have all the time in my days to dedicate towards caring for your animals! Anytime, morning or evening, weekdays or weekends, works perfect for me. I am willing to do early morning runs, late-night rides, and anything in between. I am very athletic and can easily keep up with (most) dog’s high energy levels. If your dog is lower energy, I am happy to sit with them giving all the belly rubs and cuddles they could ever ask for. Any special dietary restrictions or behavioral issues are fair game as well, I am very comfortable working in all sorts of situations thanks to the exposure I’ve received in a shelter environment. I am looking to create genuine relationships and set up long-term clientele with pets and their parents. I am not offering services in my home at this time, but have a dependable vehicle and am willing to travel anywhere in the Omaha metro area to help care for your fur babies. Thank you for taking this time to read about me. I can’t wait to show you and your pets the great care I have in store for them.
Reviews
Aarynn is very loving towards every animal she meets. I haven't met a dog that doesn't like her. She is very responsible and was a great person to work with.
Aarynn has been a great dog sitter for us on weekends when our son has out-of-state tournaments. Our dogs are always happy and relaxed after her stays. She is one of the only people we trust leaving our immunocomprimised dog with for several days at a time, and does great with the special feeding and kenneling instructions we have for them. We will always call Aarynn when we need a weekend dog watcher.

Information Aarynn S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know about your dog's energy level and how well they are leash trained and if they respond to basic commands. I will need to know about any food aggression, dog aggression, or anxiety issues so I can provide the best possible environment for all my clients. I have no breed preferences, I love them all!
A typical day
I can take dogs on walks around your neighborhood or let them have playtime at a nearby dog park. I am willing to walk as far as the dog wants in order to tucker them out, and can even go for runs and rides with them on bike trails throughout the area. I will provide balls, stuffed animals, ropes, squeaky toys, and may other enriching toys. I can also provide treats and shred toys for the food-motivated pup and, of course, all the hugs and kisses a dog could ever need.
