Pet care experience
Need a place to bring your pet that will feel almost like home? My goal is always to make sure your dog is as excited to arrive here as they are when you pick them up. Let’s be honest, it’s my dogs’ house and I just live in it. I am an apprentice dog trainer and work from home full time. My days are focused on caring for and working with dogs. Your pup will have my full attention during their time with me. What can your dog expect with me? - Positive reinforcement only. - Room to roam. I have a fully fenced yard that is escape proof from above or below. - Friends to play with, or ignore. I group and supervise all play. Our time is structured so everyone gets an opportunity to be outside off leash in whatever way they are comfortable. - Structured days with enrichment and engagement throughout. - Comfy places to lounge. We’ve got dog beds EVERYWHERE and room for more. - Exciting places to walk. I live near the greenbelt and Freeman Park so all walks are in beautiful spots with lots to see and smell. - Kind and considerate care. Every dog gets dedicated time daily for pets and snuggles. Equal division of time and attention is priority. - Supervision by a knowledgeable person. I work very hard to get to know your pup and read their body language to ensure they are comfortable and worry free. - Reinforcement of boundaries to ensure a safe environment. - Adaptions to fit your pups needs and routines. If your dog finds comfort in a crate or their own space, I will ensure that is provided. If your dog is fearful of confinement crates are not used and a comfortable spot for them is designated. I promise to never try to make your dog love me more than you, but I will work hard to be their second favorite! Whether in my home or in yours I will adapt to your dogs needs, provide lots of loving attention, and be quality company while you are away.
Reviews
Ari is an absolute joy and gift to the dog owning world. She was so communicative and just knew what my shy pup needed. I felt 1000% confident with him in her care and it made a world of difference! Highly recommend her!
Pepper seemed to enjoy her time with Ari. Ari sent photos and updates every day which we really appreciated.
Ari helped my Angel to feel right at home. This was my first time leaving her and I was really anxious. I didn’t need to be worried because Ari took such good care of Angel. She sent pictures, videos and updates on Angels progress. I recommend her to anyone who wants their dog taken care of well!
Harley comes home happy and stress free when he stays with Ari. It’s so nice to be able to leave town and know he’s being well cared for!
About Ari L.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Every pet that comes to stay at my home is able to maintain a routine as close to their home as possible. Every visitor gets a designated spot or area they can retreat to if they don’t want interaction. Otherwise there is free access inside and out to the fenced backyard. I work hard to ensure everyone is comfortable and leaves excited to come back.

Information Ari L. would like to know about your pet
Any info on: Behaviors, Allergies, Medications, Energy levels, Commands or reinforcement I should be using, etc. I like to know how best to mimic your routine or keep interactions consistent.
A typical day
Structure is important to me throughout the day with the pets I watch. Each and every point of excitement and activity is followed by a time for rest. This allows me to have dedicated time with each pet and adjust to comfort levels. Our favorite activities include: - Solo or paired walks. - Brain games to compliment physical activity. Examples: hide and seek with treats or toys; snuffle or lick mats; kibble wrapped in a towel. - Fetch, tug, and flirt pole in the back yard. - Free dog playtime.
