Pet care experience

Tail Wags & Belly Rubs Guaranteed

Dogs have been part of my life since I got my first pup at age 5, and I’ve been raising and caring for them ever since. Our home includes a 7-year-old mini Frenchie who’s a pro at reading the room - she loves a good play session but also knows when to give other dogs their space. My 3.5-year-old is growing up with the same love for dogs and has learned to respect boundaries and recognize when it’s time to play or give pets their space. Your dog will be treated like family here, with plenty of love, attention, and a calm, dog-savvy household that understands every pup is unique. We have a fenced-in backyard for as much outdoor play your pup may require.

Ariel provided great care to my baby. She is very reliable, has great communication, and is very professional. I was very nervous about leaving my pet, but Ariel reassured me and was fantastic. She will be my babies sitter from now on.

She’s attentive and the dogs really gravitate towards her positive attitude and friendliness towards them. She’s always been my caregiver of choice for my dog when I travel for work out of state. I wholeheartedly recommend Ariel to your business. She is reliable, the dogs give her their attention, as they seem to appreciate her calm demeanor.

I have known Ariel for over 10 years. She has always been a loving, attentive, and proactive pet owner. Ariel holds herself to a very high standard when it comes to quality of life and that includes not only her own fur babies but all of mine as well, especially my cats. Her empathy and caring nature are as natural as her love for pets.

Schedule

I work full time from home with a very flexible schedule, which means I’m around throughout the day to provide attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. My routine naturally revolves around my own pup’s needs, so caring for your dog fits seamlessly into our daily flow. Whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or just hanging out together while I work, your dog will have consistent supervision and plenty of quality time.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. My 20-pound mini Frenchie is always up for a playmate when the vibe is right, but she’s equally content to let other pups do their own thing. For peace of mind, we’re just 8 minutes from the nearest emergency vet, so immediate care is readily accessible if ever needed.

A typical day

Our typical day starts with a morning walk and breakfast, followed by relaxation time while I work. Mid-day brings another walk, lunch, belly rubs, and backyard play. We wind down the evening with dinner and one final walk before bedtime.
