Im currently a med school student but am in the process of transitioning from clerkships to elective year so with some extra free time, I am able to tend to your pets needs throughout most times of the day. My schedule does vary depending on the specialty / clinic I’ll be in, but the details can be sorted out with the needs you and your pets require!

Safety, trust & environment

I have 3 dogs myself, 2 of them currently reside with my parents up north due to me being here for medical school while my fiance and I travel with our sweet newly adopted girl. My pups love to run around and get as much play time as possible so I’m used to the high energy pups!

Information Ariana G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any allergies, special behaviors, mood changes or anxiety ridden tendencies, or even everyday certain needs that your dog may require. I am willing and ready to do anything in my power to make sure your dog is always well taken care of and loved at all times! I have no preference to any dogs, however I do have more experience with Pitties, Pugs, French & English bulldogs, Labradors/mixed labs, Goldens/golden mixes, Doodle mixes and Huskies!

A typical day

I absolutely love to keep your dog active and cared for at all times! My day is fairly simple luckily due to my hours being minimal for clinics, so there is plenty of love and care provided for your fur babies! A typical day for us would be very laid back - we'll play games, and do some tricks that will keep them mentally stimulated, of course if they’re more of the high energy type! Snuggling on the couch and going for at least 2-4 walks per day for some movement and potty breaks is typically part of the schedule as well. If comfortable, I'll look for any new parks within the area for us to enjoy and take a beautiful stroll around the neighborhood. Mental stimulation as well as physical activity is super important for dogs in my opinion and also gives us more time to bond and have a great & loving puppy/caregiver relationship.

You down w/ TLC?! Yeah you know me!

Pet care experience

I am able to care for a variety of furry friends, ranging from puppies to senior dogs. I do have some personal (not professional) experience in training that follows respect, obedience, and basic commands! Keeping your pup active, in a safe environment and always loved are my top priorities ☺️ I also offer pet taxi services - if your fur baby happens to have an upcoming vet service or even grooming service, I will happily provide transportation! These options will count as a scheduled ‘Drop in’ visit if you’re interested! 😊

Ariana is an absolute gem! She watched our senior dog Penny and took such incredible care of her. She took her on regular walks, sent tons of updates, and she even cleaned Penny’s water bowl. The little details really showed how much she cares. We came home to one happy pup and complete peace of mind. Highly, highly recommend Ariana!

Ariana is superb with the girls and patiently adjusted to the rain last week to find a window for a walk with the girls. Truly exceptional person who truly cares about furry friends.

Ariana was amazing as always! The girls really enjoy seeing her and she has my absolute trust. Great communication, perfect professional who handled the crazy Miami weather last week without issue. Highly recommend Ariana, and I'll definitely keep her as my primary sitter for the girls. A pleasure to work with her.
