Highlights
Pet care experience
I am a Dog-aholic/ Cat-enthusiast!!
I have owned two dogs and they were my responsibilities to take care of them. More recently I had a 16 year old dog that I would consider my “soul dog”. She taught me how to be prepared for every stage in a dogs life ~ from puppy, to psycho hyper dog, to well behaved, to maybe doesn’t do well with other dogs, to being needy and wanting extra love, or to her wanting her alone time. She also taught me towards the end of her life how on top of appointments I needed to be or how to trick her into taking her medicine (as that was a hassle) and to pay extra attention for signs of not feeling good. I will make sure your dog gets the love and attention it needs! I love to play with dogs and miss having a companion. If your dog likes to go to the dog park I’ll take them! I think it’s good for dogs to socialize with others, unless there are circumstances that prevent that from happening that’s understandable as well. Choose me to make sure your dog gets taken care of the right way!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I always make time to go outside. I’ll have treats to offer. Your dog will get a lot of attention with me. I’ll make sure to comfort them since they will be without their owner! I am respectful of others home’s and follow instructions for their pets.
Ratings and reviews
Ariela is very professional and adapts well to each dog's individual needs and personality. We could tell she was making a conscious effort to ensure our dog Lucy was comfortable, exercised and well cared for. Excellent communication as well! We were very happy with our experience with Ariela and look forward to using her again in the future. Thanks, Ariela! Great job!
Ariela did an amazing dog with Magda! We did a meet and greet before the stay and my partner and I stayed at her apartment for an hour, which was very much appreciated! Ariela watched Magda for a week over Christmas and kept me very well updated with how Magda was adjusting to the stay, her silly sleeping positions, and sent videos of her opening the gifts I left for her. She was very interested in Magda’s personality traits, likes, and dislikes and really made me feel extra relieved since I was away for a week. She even followed up and asked how Magda was doing after we got back home. I will be booking with her again!
Ariela did great with Mikki. She went above what was required and gave Mikki a bath during her stay. Mikki did well and looks (and smells!) great. Ariela was also flexible with my drop off and pick up times (later and earlier than I had originally communicated). There were 3 full flights of stairs to get to Ariela's but Mikki, a 12 year old 10 lb dog, was able to do them without a problem. I would book again.

Schedule
I currently work from home Monday-Friday 8:30-4:30. I will make sure to adjust my schedule to what your dog needs. I currently have a roommate with a dog and help her out when needed or take her dog to the dog park when I can tell she needs socialization. Due to having a dog in my house it’s not an option for me to host another dog unfortunately.
