Loving care and fun outside time
Pet care experience
We have always had pets growing up. Both cats and dogs. I've had a pit bull in my early teens and had also adopted a 10yr old senior dog. I have experience giving my senior medicine and being extra gentle when it is needed. I currently have a reactive German Shepherd so if you're looking for someone to watch your big dog that pulls a lot, I have tons of experience and am strong enough to hold him or her. Basically I have had experience with animals in different stages of their life. Im still learning as Odin has training classes and I use what I learn to help with other pets. I've watched pets for friends and family in the past and have done drop in visits for years now. I am able to travel further distances if you aren't able to find someone local just send a message.
Reviews
Ariel is by far a very reliable person. She has watched my Dog numerous of times when I have gone out of town. My dog loves her and always greets her with furry kisses. I even recommended her to a friend who has a Dog and cat and he also calls on ariel whenever he needs her to watch his fur babies
About Ariel R.
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Currently I am not doing overnight visits or day care but it's important to keep pets on their original schedule. For drop-in visits and walks, I think it would be best to stick to their original route and if they don't yet have one, a walk with a nice game of fetch is usually good enough to tire them out a bit. I will always send pictures when your pet and I are on our adventures together.
Information Ariel R. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know your dogs temperament, things they do and do not like. Their favorite spots to visit on walks. Whether or not they will chase after a squirrel. If they need special equipment to help them from pulling, I would like to see how it's set up prior to walking.
A typical day
My dog loves to play fetch so typically we will go for a walk and then play in the backyard after. If your dog is friendly with other dogs I don't kind taking them to a dog park so they can socialize with other dogs.
Services
Ariel can watch in your home
Availability
I do work full-time so I can come before or after work through out the week. I'm off two days out of the week and if you would like to schedule a weekly walk schedule or drop in visit I will work closely with you to make my schedule accommodating for your pet. Ex. If you would like a certain day or if the week for me to walk and visit your dog I can request those days off if far enough in advance.
