Ariah can care for
Availability
My fur, feathers, and scales family consists of 2 dogs, 4 birds, and 4 lizards. A Blue Heeler, a Pitbull, 3 bearded dragons, 1 gargoyle gecko, and 4 cockateils. It's a whole zoo, but I embrace the chaos. Feedings, cleanings, and all around playtime happens everyday. Vacuuming feathers and bird seed, feeding the animals in the mornings and refreshing their feed at night, walking the dogs (and sometimes the birds and lizards) can be crazy to keep up with, but I love it. My Blue Heeler, Koda, and I would hike the canyon during the summer months and even go paddleboarding as well! I also have a bike with an attachable dog bike trailer, so we've biked all around together.

About Ariah C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
In the past and even the present, I've always had many animals. Everything from fish to ferrets, from geckos to goats, I've always been circled by many animals in all shapes and sizes. Each and every one of those creatures needed a specific way to care for them too. I am able to take hyper and energetic pets on runs to wind down, and I love playing with pets in the yard as well for those who might not be good to go on a stroll. And for those who aren't as up to being wild, I love cuddling and settling down with a nice book as well.
Information Ariah C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pets have any special needs or care instructions before the visit! Additionally, if you book a House-Sitting, it is an overnight care service. It is not a 24/7 constant care service, meaning I should be free to leave to do errands and the like. This will be discussed at meet and greets. I, however, would use the house-sitting home as my new "home-base", and return to it when pets need out, food, or water. I would also return to the home at nights. If this does not work for you, I can offer to stay full-time regardless. However, depending on the situation and care needed, I may charge a "Constant Care Rate", which is an additional $5 a day. Some things that would be helpful to know is: - If they can go on walks (and where their walking supplies are) - If they are territorial towards anything, like food, the bed, toys, etc. - If they need to be crated if I have to leave, or at nights - If they need to be watched if let out into the yard to prevent escapes - If they are escape artists - If they are friendly/not friendly toward their possible fellow animals of the house - If they are banned from any areas of the house - If they need any medication If your pet has health complications or are within the elder range of the age spectrum, it would also be good to let me know if there is a vet that you go to in case of an emergency, or any emergency contacts I could get a hold of in case I'm not able to reach you.
A typical day
Before the sitting, I will always ask if your pet is able to go on walks, and how many they could have. Typically for dogs, I tend to take dogs on a walk in the morning/afternoon in order to start the day. If they can't go on walks, I can play with a tennis ball or toy in the yard (or in the house, if allowed) to get a quick exercise in before the day starts to get too hot. During the evening, if the sidewalk or temperature outside isn't hot, then I'd go on another, longer walk to wind down for the night. Walks like these can help with better sleep as well for anxious dogs who aren't as used to having their owner be away. I'm also down to throw a toy around the yard if your dog isn't trusted on a leash, or even just playing inside if needed! For cats, if they are interested, I'd play with them using their toys and playthings. If your cat has a pet stroller, then I'd walk them too! I have a pet stroller of my own if you'd want for your cats, or even your dogs to go on strolls too! The weight capacity is 100 pounds, but it is very large and has lots of stretch room!

Pet care experience
My whole life, I've been surronded by creatures of all shapes and sizes. Whether they have fur, scales, feathers, or shells, I have both owned and took care of a variety of animals. I have previous experience in caring for Reptiles, Fish, Birds, small Rodents, Horses, Goats, Chickens, and even "creepy crawlies", such as Spiders and milipedes! I've trained my own dog to do many tricks, ranging from the simple "sit", all the way to a more complex "army crawl"! While I don't have professional experience in dog training, I am able to teach simple commands, such as sit, lay down, shake, stay, and come! I am also able to give pills to pets, even crafty ones who might chew around a treat-wrapped pill and spit it out! I love hiking and walks too! I'm always happy to stroll around the neighborhood with an energetic pet as well! I also love reading, so if your pet is more laid-back, I'm totally up for a chill time too.

Reviews
Always reliable and the best with the pups
Super attentive sitter that our pups adored! Put a lot of energy into keeping them active, loved, and brushed (no small feat for 2 Akitas in shed!). Was very professional and responsive, and quick to notice + report minor health and behavioral concerns. Will absolutely book again 😊
Ariah did a great job ❤️ & followed my instructions to my preference for my lab!, I was worried mainly about him getting his medication but she kept me at ease during my time away! I will definitely use her again 😁. THANK YOU AGAIN!
Ariah C. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
