Highlights
Pet care experience
Extremely experienced pet-sitter!
Hi, my name is Aria. I got my first dog at 5 years old and since then my passion for animals has just grown. I started training, walking, and babysitting dogs when I was young, then went on to start and run a dog rescue 8 years ago, Boonie Babies. I have personally cared for over 1,000 animals, rescuing, rehabilitating, and adopting out hundreds and working with hundreds more in-clinic working as a veterinary assistant. Needless to say, I have plenty of experience with dogs and am comfortable with any breed, from mutts, mastiffs, to chihuahuas. I will treat your fur babies like they are my own whether that be taking them for walks or hikes, or just lounging on the couch together. My goal is to make your pups as happy as possible when you’re unable to. Contact me if you have any questions or are interested in my services. Thank you.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
First off, I'm Aria's dad, so I am admittedly biased here, but watching Aria work tirelessly with thousands of dogs over the last nine years, including standing up a nonprofit organization that has brought global attention and meaningful resources to the stray dog population (aka "Boonie Babies Saipan"), I can say she is an elite talent with an elite heart for dogs. You will be thrilled to see the level of skill and love she brings to your furry friend(s).
Aria is a true animal whisperer! She has the knowledge and experience with all dog breeds, big and small, and their individual quirky behaviors! Her countless hours of volunteering at dog shelters, fostering, and placing dogs into their forever homes demonstrates her dedication and love for dogs. While your pet is in Aria's care, she will be completely dedicated to their well being!

Schedule
I have recently moved back to Pueblo Colorado after nine years running a dog rescue on Saipan. Therefore, my days are currently free with the exception of some time set aside to care for and fulfill my own three dogs, two cats, and horse. I'm flexible and willing to work with most schedules.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
With vast experience of animals in my own home, usually caring for 16-20 dogs at a time during my rescue running days, I am more than comfortable with both sitting and boarding dogs. Everything I do with the animals I am caring for is intentional to prioritize their health and happiness. I rely on structure and my knowledge of dog body language and behavior to ensure a smooth and safe stay with me or comfortable interactions as I enter their own home. Owner-home services such as dog sitting or walking, I can comfortably integrate into your setting and care routine. In my own home, I am also happy to follow care instructions while providing a safe and comfortable home experience for your pet. I provide access to a fully fenced in outdoor space with grace and rocks as well as calm, and comfortable indoors. I'm willing to follow all care instructions with the exception of those that harm your animal's health. For example: overfeeding.
A typical day
Depending on your pet’s wants and needs I love lounging on the couch with clients, doing training sessions, and taking them for amazing walks and hikes.
