I’m a stay at home wife with a lot of time so I’d love the opportunity to provide you with a stress free stay for your furry family member. I love my two pups and will care for yours just like my own. I’m home all the time unless out running errands but I’ll always put the needs of your pet first to ensure they have a comfortable stay.

Information Aren D. would like to know about your pet

Socialization (I have two pups in my home who get along with all dogs), how well they do on a leash, allergies, feeding schedule, recall, potty habits, anxiety, special medication, etc. And of course let me know whenever you want videos or pictures on top of the ones I like to send daily! Leaving your beloved pup with strangers can be scary but I want to make sure you’re mind is at ease.

A typical day

I love to ensure every dog under my care is well taken care of! We start our day by going out to potty, there are many grassy areas for pet relief in my neighborhood. Then I like to feed the dogs after their first walk and they will always have access to clean water! I have extra bowls that I sanitize and clean between all clients. After that we will play with toys on the patio and then take them out for another potty break about an hour or two after feeding. We go to the park or between 12-3. After the park we will have them try to potty again before letting them take a much needed nap. Dinner will be given between 5-7 pm unless otherwise instructed! And then another potty break before heading into bed.

Pets

Experienced professional sitter !

Pet care experience

5 years of dog sitting experience! And experience in a vet hospital (have administered injectable medications, can do ear cleanings, toe trims, and baths) Capable and attentive to ensure your pet has a great stay, walk, or play date. I can handle up to 2-3 dogs at a time. I have two doggies of my own and they’re both friendly with other dogs, love to play and cuddle. I’d love the opportunity to care for your family! Our apartment complex has its own dog park, shaded grassy areas, and I am able to provide dog bowls, toys to play with and a shaded patio for a relaxing environment. Able to provide a crate if needed for your pup, have extra collars and leashes, all you need to bring is their food and anything that will help them feel more at ease in a new environment! My neighborhood is very dog friendly and safe with our own security since we are on military housing ! Very active home so they will be taken on hikes, walks and the park as many times as you’d like them to be. I can give baths as needed, responsible with giving dogs any medication they are prescribed, and most of all will always send you updates, pictures and videos. As a dog owner myself I want to make sure you feel comfortable with the care being provided.

Aren took very good care of my little, 6 lbs, dog Beanie. Because she’s so small I get concerned for her safety. She gets nervous and anxious when meeting new people and when I picked her up she was calm and looked so comfortable. She also looked cleaner than when I dropped her off thanks to Aren who gave her a bath. I was gone for 5 days and rarely leave her alone and Aren sent me pictures and updates everyday so I was kept in the loop and saw how she was…no worries. Very appreciative of the care and attention given her.

Aren took very good care of our dog. She was very caring and detail oriented. She asked if our dog was sensitive to fireworks because the Fourth of July fireworks were coming up. She also asked for permission to give our dog a bath after he had gotten muddy in the rain. Overall, she was great at communication and sent me pictures and videos throughout the stay. I would take my dog to her again without hesitation.

Aren kept our mini Aussie for a whole week. He needs lots of play time which he got at the dog park, the beach, and with Aren’s friendly dogs. Aren sent a few photos throughout the week to keep us updated. He came home happy and healthy!!

Rex had a wonderful experience with Aren and her dogs. She was communicative and treated Rex as her own. Rex retuned to us tired and happy, signs of being well taken care of. He misses his buddies but we will definitely be back soon!
