Pet care experience

Your pet’s next best friend!

Your pet’s next best friend is just a message away! 🐾✨ Hi there! I’m Ara—a lifelong animal lover with over 16 years of experience caring for pets (and even a few wild friends too!). From cuddly cats 😺 to sweet small dogs 🐶, I’ve provided love, care, and even medical support to animals of all shapes and sizes. I currently share my heart (and couch) with my cat Max 🐈‍⬛, and I specialize in cat care—though I’m happy to help with small pups too. I’ve administered medications, handled special needs, and even cared for wildlife like two rescued opossums (yes, they were adorable 💕). While I don’t offer boarding, I do offer reliable home visits so your pet can stay comfy and relaxed in their own space 🏡. Whether it's feeding, playtime, medication, or just a little love while you’re away, I’ll treat your pets like family. Let’s chat—I’d be honored to care for your fur baby like one of my own! 🐾💛

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I follow the pet parent’s instructions closely—whether it’s feeding, giving medication, scooping litter boxes, or just spending quality time with their pet to ease any stress or loneliness. I always make sure the space is left clean and that your pet gets the attention they need, whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or quiet companionship. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible while you're away.

Very communicative and always takes the best care of my cats! Absolutely keeping her at the top of my list for when I’m out of town.

Ara was amazing. Her communication was great, and even though she had personal stuff going on in her life, that would make it difficult to watch my cats, she always showed up, which I appreciate so much. Thank you Ara

Ara was amazing, my cats typically have anxiety when i leave for an extended period of time, and when I came home, they were so calm. The cat area in my apartment was clean, Ara’s communication was great, I will definitely be using her again.

Aradia watched our two cats while we were on our honeymoon for three weeks. Aradia was absolutely amazing and communicative the whole time. She played with them, fed them, and made sure they were as comfortable and safe as possible. We highly recommend her and will definitely come to her for the next time we need help with pet sitting!

I am so thankful for Aradia. She gives me peace when I have to be away. Knowing my cat is so well taken care of is a blessing. She is the BEST.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been a part of my life. Since I work from home, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to easily plan visits and give each pet the time and attention they deserve. Whether it's morning feedings, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I can adjust my routine to fit what works best for the pet and their family. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy—it never feels like a chore, it's something I look forward to every day.
