Loving Pet Parent & Medical-Savvy
Hi, I’m Ardelia! As a lifelong pet lover, science nerd, a soccer coach, and a mom, I know that your pets aren't just animals—they are family. I understand the stress of finding someone you can trust with your "fur babies," and I am here to provide the peace of mind you need while you’re away. We have Luke, our sweet 6-year-old German Shepherd/Husky mix, and Gabe, our 10-year-old cat. Our home is a pet paradise! We have a large, fully fenced yard with professional turf, perfect for zoomies and safe outdoor play. Why choose me? Medical Experience: My senior cat, Gabe, is diabetic. I am fully comfortable and experienced in administering medications and monitoring special medical needs. Total Flexibility: Life happens! Whether it’s a last-minute business trip or a change in plans, I offer a flexible cancellation policy and welcome short-notice bookings. Active Lifestyle: When I’m not coaching on the soccer field, I’m hiking the beautiful PNW trails. If your dog loves to move, they’ve found the right sitter! A "Mom’s" Perspective: I treat every guest pet with the same love, routine, and attention I give my own kids and pets.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Yogi had the best time with Ardelia's dog Luke. Ardelia kept me posted on all of the fun play and zoomies throughout the day.
I can’t recommend Ardelia enough. My dog Winston can be weary with strangers. I rarely trust him to be in the care of other others. From the time he met Ardelia he was totally at ease and excited for his next visit with her. She has proven to be very reliable and I love when she sends pictures of her walks with him :) I would hands-down recommend her for help with any of my pets!
I always have peace of mind leaving my husky in Ardelia's care. My dog is very anxious, and Ardelia is always patient with her to help her feel safe. She was reliable, attentive, and has a genuine love for animals. I always appreciate the regular updates and photos. I would absolutely recommend Ardelia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.
Ardelia has a fun and positive energy about her that both cats and dogs love. Her own pets are loving and well behaved as well as healthy, and there's no doubt in my mind the traits that make her such a great pet owner will make her stand out on Rover.
My husband and I like to travel. We have used Ardelia a number of times. Our little girl was on medication for heart and kidney disease. Ardelia took care of her for two years for us when we went out of town. She was always caring and kind with our baby. We never had to worry if Shaylee was getting her medications when Ardelia was talking care of her. We loss her earlier this year but when we adopt another fur baby we will be using Ardelia again.
Ardelia assisted in taking care of my two sibling cats without advanced notice and when our family was facing an unplanned emergency. The cats were also not potty trained and had behavioral issues. Ardelia was able to take great care of them and gave them a safe environment and encouraged appropriate potty training behaviors. The cats were there for about 2 months and when they finally came home they were basically potty trained! Ardelia is awesome with animals and highly recommended.

Schedule
I have a flexible work from home schedule, so I have plenty of time on weekdays and weekends to care for your fur babies. I set my own schedule so I can arrange my workday appointments accordingly around your pet's needs.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
For overnight or day visits, I have a fenced back yard with turf and two friendly pets to keep them company in my home. I will always treat your home and your fur babies with love and respect during drop-in and walking visits. Under my care, I will give your pets my sole attention and ensure they are happy and loved while you are away.
Pets
A typical day
Walking to explore new smells, have play time at the dog park, have approved treats, receive lots of pets, scratches, and love so they are happy and stimulated mentally and physically.
