Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Cat Dad & Pet Sitter
Currently offering HEAVILY DISCOUNTED services since I'm new on Rover and trying to meet new furry clients! I’ve been lucky enough to care for animals my entire life. My partner and I live in the Noma/Gallaudet neighborhood in D.C. with our two precious black cats who we love so much! I know each animal has a totally unique personality. My approach to play time, physical touch, and communication is always tailored to your individual pet’s personality and preferences. I will take a gentle, patient approach so they feel 100% happy and comfortable at all times. I will treat your babies like my own, giving them my full attention, patience, and positive energy. I also value keeping strong communication with you, so you can expect pictures, updates, and to be notified of any concerns immediately when they arise, so you know your babies are in excellent hands. Note: I will be the sole caregiver for any pets.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Ari is very thoughtful and careful when it comes to pets. He makes sure their needs are taken care of and that they enjoy affection too. He has a couple pets of his own, so I would absolutely trust Ari with the care of my own pets too. He is communicative and kind toward people.
I can’t say enough amazing things about Ari and the way he cares for animals. He has watched my two cats, Rocky and Diego, multiple times, and I always feel completely comfortable knowing they are in his care. He is incredibly loving, patient, and attentive with them, and he genuinely cares about making sure they are happy, healthy, and comfortable. Rocky and Diego absolutely love spending time with him, and he treats them as if they were his own pets. They have very different personalities and he pays attention to their individual personalities and needs and always makes sure they have everything they need. I would trust him with my pets without hesitation and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone caring, responsible, and trustworthy to watch their animals.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When I first meet a new client, I like to discuss a few things, including (but not limited to) what kind of environment their pet feels most comfortable in, how they like to play, ideal feeding schedules, and what are the key things to avoid that I should know about. Basically, I want to get as much information as possible so the experience is seamless for the pet and to give the owner peace of mind that they’re animal will be happy and cared for while they are gone.
