Pet care experience

Your pets home away from home

Hi, I’m Ariel! I’m a former nurse and now a stay-at-home mom with a lifelong love for animals. Caring for others has always been a big part of who I am, and that same compassion extends to every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication administration, or simply a comforting presence while you’re away, I’m committed to providing safe, reliable, and personalized care. As someone who is home throughout the day, I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention and companionship. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

Bazinga had a great time with his new furry (and non furry) friends. 10/10 would book again.

So glad Bazinga stayed with Ariel and her family….. both human and furry. He had a good time and was well taken care of. Would book again in the future.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my day. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention are things I genuinely look forward to. I plan my schedule carefully to make sure each pet gets the time, consistency, and care they deserve while they’re with me

Safety, trust & environment

I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. Every pet has different needs, and I’m happy to tailor my care to their personality, energy level, and routine

Pets

A typical day

My goal is to make sure they feel stimulated, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I like to keep pets happy and engaged with activities based on their energy level and personality. This can include walks around the neighborhood, backyard play, fetch, tug-of-war, puzzle toys, and cuddle time for pets who prefer something calmer. For dogs that enjoy socializing, I also focus on safe exploration and enrichment during walks so they can sniff and explore

Before caring for a pet, it’s important for me to know their daily routine, feeding schedule, any allergies or medical needs, and how they do with things like walks, other animals, or new people. I also like to know their personality—what comforts them, what they enjoy, and anything that may stress them out. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away
