Highlights
Pet care experience
Prioritizing health and happiness!
Hi there, I'm Arabelle! I am a lifelong animal-lover and have been providing professional animal care for about four years. I work as a full-time cat caregiver at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary and have provided in-home animal care for local community members since April 2022. I try to treat every pet in my care as if they were my own and prioritize their happiness, as well as their families' peace of mind while away. I have provided care for a wide array of animals - primarily dogs and cats, but also rabbits, guinea pigs, goats, horses, chickens, parrots, snakes, and tortoises. I also have personal experience caring for rats, mice, and a wide variety of invertebrates. Does your pet have special needs? No worries! I have a variety of basic medical experience, including administering oral medications, eye drops, ointments, injections, subcutaneous fluids, and enemas. I have worked with animals with a wide range of conditions, including seizure disorders, heart and kidney disease, sensory disabilities (blind/deaf animals), neurological disorders, incontinence, food allergies, and reactivity toward other animals. I am comfortable with changing diapers, managing strict feeding regimens, and providing plenty of exercise for high-energy pups!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I follow any safety protocols preferred by each pet parent. I have worked with dogs who are crated during the day, as well as those who are free to roam the house. I do not let dogs outside in an unfenced area off-leash unless I have been given specific instructions to do so AND have worked with the dog multiple times before. I generally prefer that indoor/outdoor cats are kept inside for the duration of their parents' absence.
Ratings and reviews
Arabelle is always such a. joy to work with. I can trust my cats are well taken care of plus some! Arabelle is responsive, flexible and works with my crazy schedule!
Arabelle was the best pet sitter. She was reliable, responsible and took the best care of our dog while we were gone all day hiking. She kept us posted with updates and photos. I would highly recommend her and will use her again when we are in Kanab!
Arabelle was great! Very good communicator and flexible to my needs. Didn’t have to worry about my animals or plants they were in good hands!
Wonderful service. Arabelle was able to accommodate last minute and give a perfect drop-in visit for our dog.
Arabelle was great!! She spent the day with Pickles hanging out and giving him walks. We got frequent updates & photos! He had a perfect day :)
Arabelle is extraordinary. I have 3 dogs with a strict medicine sked at 5a, 1p, 5p, 9p. Arabelle never missed a single meds n always texted me after each time to let me know the meds were done. She is so incredibly responsible and easily the best sitter/walker in town. She is usually booked solid (months in advance!) but several of her regular clients have left town so she has more availability. There is no one else like her. Just give her a meet n greet n u will immediately see what a compassionate n responsible person she is. I absolutely think she is the greatest
