Ready to provide care and cuddles!!

Pet care experience

I absolutely love animals and have grown up with dogs and cats throughout my entire life. I have previously worked at a Pet Resort in Andover, KS for two and a half years where I have walked, played, and cared for various types and breeds of dogs and cats. I have taken care of senior, young, playful, shy, anxious, reactive, and aggressive dogs and cats. I am comfortable and have experience giving dogs/cats meds and insulin shots. Additionally I have over one year experience working in Veterinary Emergency Medicine. This experience allows me to know when a pet is in need of immediate medical attention but also how to prevent a medical emergency and be cautious while watching your furry family. I have at least 2 years prior experience dog and house sitting for friends and family. I was also a volunteer walking and training dogs with a nonprofit animal rescue in Wichita, KS, Beauties and Beasts, for over 4 years (to add to my doggy experience). In the past have shadowed veterinarians and clinic technicians with a plan to pursue a veterinarian career myself. I have a deep passion for animals and I would make sure to care for yours no less then I would caring for my own pup!

We absolutely love Ariel! She was super consistent and always great with our boys. We have a high anxiety pup who doesn't warm up to many people but did love her. She both did drop in and dog sat for us and did an incredible job! She uploaded lots of pictures and always left detailed notes about each visit.

Ariel is great with our cat Lola! We will continue booking her when we need a pet sitter. She is very attentive and provides great info in her updates.

I will listen to what you need from me to provide the best care that I can in your home and during walks! Let me know any major concerns you have while away. Make sure to let me know if your dog sneaks food, darts when the front door is open, isn't allowed on certain surfaces or areas, major medications they need to take, any quirks during walks, etc. I also always ask for vet information to be written down as well as an emergency contact that lives close by in case of an emergency.

Information Ariel L. would like to know about your pet

I do require a meet and greet BEFORE the scheduled visit to make sure I am not only a good fit for your dogs or cats but also that I am a good fit for you. I want to make sure I meet your needs and requirements. Please reach out to me before the week of your scheduled visit to allow ample time for a meet and greet. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member(s)!

A typical day

I try to keep my typical day similar to your dog's normal day with you. I will listen to you and see what your furry member needs from me. I am able to do walks, jogs, outings in the car, playtime in their yard or a chill cuddle session!
