Recent Grad and Animal Lover
Pet care experience
Growing up in a rural farmhouse I've taken care of our family dogs, cats, fish, and horses my whole life. As a recent grad with a wildlife conservation major I've also worked with some more exotic animals around the world (bats, sea turtles, pandas). I love all animals and am knowledgable and responsible in working with them. Various experience dog sitting and walking around both the Humboldt and San Diego area. Because I am living in an apartment and spend a few months of each year abroad doing field research, I am unable to adopt a furry friend of my own. Pet sitting is a great way for me to share my affection for animals by giving someone else's pooch the fun and affection they need while their family is away.
Reviews
Ari was great with a year old border collie that had never stayed with anyone else before. She kept her busy, helped our dog make new dog friends, and kept us informed. Highly recommended.
I can't recommend Ari highly enough. I'm always nervous about leaving my pup with a new person but Ari went totally above and beyond to make sure my girl was comfy and happy the whole time I was gone. Plus, I got lots of great photo updates throughout the week! Thanks a bunch, Ari!
If there is one thing I know about Ari it's that she has an unwavering commitment to animals. There is nothing she would love better than to spend the day outside taking care of and enjoying the company of animals. She has a wide variety of experience with animals ranging from dogs to bats to horses so she is well equipped to handle any situation. The amount of passion and excitement that she devotes to animals is incredible. Whether it is getting up early to feed horses or staying up late to make sure the dogs get a walk, she dives right into responsibility. You will not find anyone more dedicated to your dog. She will not just be a caregiver for your dog but she will bond with him/her and become a companion. I wholeheartedly recommend her for any dog caregiving services you might need. She will exceed your expectations.

Information Ari A. would like to know about your pet
I would just like to know the level of training your dog has on a leash and how well your dog gets along with others. In addition it is helpful to know if they are house broken, possessive over toys or food, if they are excessive barkers, and any other quirks.
A typical day
The townhouse complex I live in may not have a personal yard, but we are just a 2 minute walk from Doyle park where we can take a pleasant walk or enjoy the dog park together. On weekends, during dog sitting we could even adventure to the dog beach or go on a hike together. There are plenty of awesome walks in the neighborhood with opportunities to get off leash and play fetch! I also love training and working with obedience, and just general attention and affection.
