Safety, trust & environment

When staying with your pet or even just dropping in, I can feed, play, crate, or give some meds to your pet if necessary. I am able to take walks or run around for a bit in the back yard. My goal is to always make the pet and the owner feel as comfortable as possible while maintaining a normal routine where necessary. I ask that owners leave detailed instructions so I can accommodate your animals as best as possible. I also request that any cameras in the home be notified to myself before I stay and I like to be clear that my partner may sometimes stay with me for overnights.

Information Ariel D. would like to know about your pet

Like humans, all animals have their own unique personalities. It is always helpful to know any quirks about your fur baby so I can offer the best care possible in the time we are together. I like to take notes and have all details laid out when we meet.

A typical day

When it comes to fun I prefer to lean into whatever the needs of the animal are that day or to follow a guideline if preferred by the owner. I love to take a walk with an adventurous dog or just lounge about and play a bit with a house cat. My goal is to stick to routine and offer comfort for each pet I take care of.

Must Love Cats ❤️

Cat care experience

I have had cats as pets of my own my whole life. I tend to think I can be a bit of a cat whisperer. I love to follow their lead and allow them the play or space that is needed. I feel comfortable cleaning a littler box and can handle multiple cats at a time. I am also comfortable administering some medication and handling senior cats.

Ariel stayed with our doodle, Bailey, for the first time for four nights/ five days. She sent us updates and pictures while we were away. Communication was easy and Ariel was always responsive. She respected our space and left everything as we had left it. I highly recommend Ariel for her kind, caring, responsible pet care!

Our experience with Ariel was terrific. We knew our pups were in great hands and well cared for. They got great walks every day, medicines were properly given, and communication was good. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire Ariel again for our boys. We recommend her to anyone look for a solid reliable sitter.

We had a great experience with Ariel. She took excellent care of our fur babies and our home while we were gone.
