Full-time traveling pet sitter!
Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Ariel. I've loved animals since I was a little kid. Now that I've graduated from college, I have the perfect opportunity to earn additional income spending time around my favorite creatures! I've been a professional pet sitter for over two years now, and have loved meeting new pets & their owners. In my time not spent sitting, I do part-time work from home as an academic research analyst. This job allows me to have as much time available for pet sitting and dog walking as possible! I enjoy the outdoors, yoga, and cooking all kinds of food. I am open to sitting all breeds & species. I am content matching the energy level of your dog. If they are active and playful, we can play in the backyard or go for multiple walks a day. If your dog is more of a couch potato, we can spend my visit relaxing on the couch. Send me a message with any questions or requests for pet care! My schedule is very flexible and I would love the opportunity to get to know your pets. I can offer walks for your dog, overnight visits to your home, or shorter check-in visits.
Reviews
Ariel did a great job walking my pup when I had to be gone for most of the day! She was punctual, and very sweet with him. I would use her again!
Ariel was the best, as always. We were gone for four days and she kept us updated each day. The dogs do great with her and we feel very comfortable leaving them with her.
Ariel is great and I feel good about leaving my dog in her hands. She responds to all requests and is flexible to any changes. Definitely would recommend.
Ariel has been able to give me SO much peace of mind while I’m away at work by routinely stopping by to take my dog for a quick walk! She’s reliable, great with pets, and I can tell that Lucy enjoys having her around. Thank you Ariel!!

Information Ariel B. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preferences, and can walk dogs that weigh 100+pounds as long as they don't pull excessively! I am happy to meet with any and all pets and their owners. I will usually suggest a park, dog friendly coffee shop, or the owner's home for meet and greets, depending on the owner's preference.
A typical day
I can play and walk pets to fit their energy needs. With owner's permission, we could even go hiking or visit a dog park! I'm all about matching the usual routine and preferences of the pets I'm sitting. I will usually try to plan walks around fun things near the pet's home! I look for parks and trails to enjoy while walking dogs. If the owner has a usual route or area they take their dog to, I'll usually follow that route! During the summer I make sure to plan a route that minimizes contact with hot pavement and asphalt. I'm very responsive when pet sitting. Owners always receive an update from me when I've checked in with their pet, and any questions asked by pet parents are answered promptly! I'm great at following instructions left for me to the tee. And I always listen to the body language of pets to ensure they're comfortable at all times!
