Hi there! My name is Ara and I'm a Professional Pastry Artist. I am a graduated college student, I work full-time, and am hoping to have a small side business babysitting/taking care of dogs and cats. I have experience caring for animals at volunteer shelters and visit them quite frequently to scope any new animals and give them attention. I love so many animals and I'm sure your furry friend will be no exception! While I do have an expertise in baking and pastry, I have always been fond of furry and non-furry creatures. I have never lived without one! I have been unprofessionally sitting dogs for my family, and have always enjoyed being around animals. I've taken an interest to knowing about breeds and their special needs, as well as keeping myself knowledgeable regarding dogs and their situations, breed updates, and finding any patterns in their behavior that I can adhere to, whether it's playing with them, raising their mood and making them feel happy, safe and cared for. Let me know if you have any inquiries that I can assist you with! While my schedule does vary each week, I am more than happy to compromise for you, your furry friend and our schedules!
