Pet care experience

Future doc & current animal lover!

Hello, my name is Ariel and I am a current medical student. I grew up with tons of cats and dogs and got my first dog as an adult in the past two years. I adore cats and dogs alike. As a sitter, I aim to be as flexible as possible to make your furry friends feel safe and happy -- I will do whatever I can! I go the extra mile, as a mom to one cat and dog myself. I am willing to go on walks, do special activities, feed your pets special meals, and take them to their favorite places when you are unavailable. I am also happy to have them stay with me. I hope to become acquainted with your babies soon! Cheers & Thank You!

Had a great experience. They were reliable, communicative, and took good care of my puppy. I appreciated the updates and would definitely book with them again.

Ariel was great watching my cat for a long weekend on short notice! You and your pet are in good hands with her!

Ariel did a great job taking care of my 2 cats! They are not fans of strangers, but she understood that. They were fed everyday and their water was topped off, as well as a photo everyday. Perfect!

Schedule

As a pre-clinical med student, I make my own schedule (our lectures are online) so I am easily available to build my schedule around the pets I take care of. I also have a lot of down time outside of class

Safety, trust & environment

I engage in play, provide snacks, and try to make your pets feel at home as possible. I am good with nurturing and finding out what pets need at any moment.

Pets

A typical day

I provide pets with walks to their favorite park, playing catch, anything at all, even if it's just cuddles. I do 30 min walks or hour long walks, and engage in play with their favorite toys.

16 to 40 lbs
Ariel can host up to 2 pets per night
If your pets have a specific thing they like to do or are more comfortable with certain activities, please let me know! Also, for walks, do tell me how they interact with other animals.
