Responsible and fun pet sitter!
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Ariel and I have been a trusted petsitter for almost a decade. When I'm not petsitting, I volunteer and foster with the Milo Foundation. As a result, I have cared for many different sizes and breeds, as well as cats, lizards, chickens, and more! I've started dabbling in some basic training and always make it a point to maintain your pups current process. I am responsive, provide my own cell, ensure you never have to reach out to me first because you're always updated, and share loads of pics! Whether it's your first time using Rover, or your hundredth, my goal is to adapt to you and your pet's needs to ensure you have the best time apart possible. Please reach out with any questions! Looking forward to hopefluffy meeting both you and your pet! --- Additional Info: I live in Richmond, CA, but travel to petsit in SF, LA, Tahoe, and New Orleans. Get in touch to discuss rates and location! I live alone in my owned home. There are no other pets in my home. I have a fenced yard and live near great dog parks.
Reviews
Ariel did an amazing job of taking care of our pet family!
Ariel was an absolutely outstanding house sitter!! From our first meeting we liked her immediately. She did an amazing job taking care of our dog who's shy around new people. She was very calm and waited for him to warm up to her and they became best friends. She works from home so she was with our dog the whole time. On the weekend she took him for outings to the beach and hiking. She sent lots of picture updates too. We would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.
Ariel is an amazing dog sitter. She is so responsible, loving, trustworthy and has a great positive attitude! We will be using her many times again! We highly recommend Ariel for your pet sitting needs!
Ariel is beyond thoughtful, conscientious, and mindful as a caretaker of your pet and home. I so appreciated her communicativeness throughout her stay. It was such a nice feeling to return home to a spotless house and calm cat. We will absolutely call on Ariel again for future stays. Thank you again!
About Ariel B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I pride myself on being a trusted petsitter. Your privacy is maintained and I prioritize your peace-of-mind, whatever measures make you feel best. I am a solo petsitter, with no other animals or "other sitters" and ensure that's the case every time, unless it has been discusses previously.
Information Ariel B. would like to know about your pet
- Meal times - Dietary restrictions - Training practices - Walk schedule preference - Leash behavior - Home instructions (trash schedule, plant watering, etc.) - Vet number
A typical day
I'm a big outdoorsy person and I have a truck for transportation! The world is really our oyster. In the past, I have taken pups to the beach, on long (dog-friendly) hikes, to dog parks - wherever they love and is within their comfort! I have worked with dog-aggressive pups that prefer our 1:1 quality time, so am sure to take them on walks where I'm on alert & scanning blocks ahead to make sure we're comfortable the whole time!
Services
Ariel can watch in your home
Availability
In addition to Rover, I have a full-time remote job. My schedule varies based on your pet's needs, but a general schedule can look like this: When I'm watching a dog, our morning typically starts by immediately going outside, either in the backyard or for a short walk. Of course, this is confirmed with the pet owners' preference, but we then have breakfast, before going on a longer, more designated walk. If the dog likes to accompany on runs, we will do that! Afterwards, I work from home, taking breaks to play with the dog inside. Around lunch, we both need to stretch our legs and take a shorter walk. Dinner is served at the designated time, and then a longer walk / dog park will happen in the evening. Before bed, one more stop outside, and then the dog can either sleep in their bed in my room or if they're crate-trained, kennel accordingly.
