I have a very flexible schedule. I am able to consistently be available pretty much any time during the day or night. I work from home, so your pet would always have me around if at my home, or me at theirs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in property, and your pet would have a whole section of yard to themselves. My home is very pet friendly with many access points to the yard, for any bathroom needs. I strongly believe that pets are family, and I love having their company in whatever room I am in. At your home, I would follow whatever rules and boundaries you have already established. I know that when it comes to our furry friends, consistency is key, so I would take my cues from you. If they're not allowed on the bed, I won't let them on the bed. If they have to watch Real Housewives of Beverly Hills at precisely 9:07 every night in order to sleep, then I'll make popcorn (For me only of course). Most importantly, I treat every pet like I would my own. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, or one-on-one attention, your pet will get plenty of care, affection, and tail-wagging fun while you’re away. 🐾

Information Ariella C. would like to know about your pet

I love getting to know every little detail about the pets I care for! The more I understand about your pet, the better I can make them feel safe, happy, and right at home. I’d love to know about their personality quirks—are they shy at first or instant best friends? What do they love most? Belly rubs, fetch, cuddles in front of the TV, chasing toys? How do they show affection, and how do they prefer to receive it? Please tell me about their walking style too. Do they pull, stroll, zig-zag to sniff everything, or stay right by your side? Have they had any training I should reinforce? What commands do they know? I also like to follow your house rules so your pet has consistency. Are they allowed on furniture? Do they sleep in a crate or the bed? Are there routines they’re used to? Safety is very important to me, so I appreciate knowing if they chase cars, bolt when they see a squirrel, guard food or toys, or have any specific triggers. Let me know what entertains them best and what helps them feel calm and secure. The more details you share, the more personalized, loving, and safe I can make their stay. 😊🐾

A typical day

If your pet stays with me, their day will be full of adventure, enrichment, and lots of love! I live in a beautiful neighborhood with big shady trees, peaceful trails, and a nearby creek—perfect for safe, stimulating walks where dogs can sniff, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. There are always squirrels to bark at, and even a bird garden that keeps curious pups entertained. For high-energy dogs, I offer engaging games like fetch, tug-of-war, and backyard-style fun. For more relaxed companions, we’ll enjoy slow sniff walks, sunshine breaks, and cozy cuddle time. I'll make sure every activity matches your dog’s age, energy level, and personality. I know most cats prefer their own homes, but just in case I do have plenty of interactive toys, enrichment games, and comfy lounging spots. I'll make sure the cat tree is out, and whether they love chasing feather wands, watching birds from the window, or curling up in a sunny nook, they’ll have a calm, safe space to feel at home.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has grown up around all kinds of animals, from dogs and cats to small pets, and everything in between. Being surrounded by animals in my childhood forever bonded me to the creatures that others can dismiss as just "pets", and has given me a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and the special care they deserve. I have over 15 years of experience training and caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s basic obedience, walk training, reinforcing good behavior, or simply providing a safe and loving environment, I’m patient, consistent, and attentive to each dog’s unique personality. I truly love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. You can count on me for dependable care, lots of affection, and a calm, positive approach. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! 🐾

Ariella was an amazing sitter! She is very nurturing, attentive and loves animals. My dogs were very well cared for and I would love to have Ariella sit for us again!

Arielle took great care of Luke. She even noticed a small detail like him itching his ears a lot indicating an ear infection & let us know right away!

Ariella was absolutely fantastic with our dogs and extremely personable throughout this process. She was attentive to their individual needs and quickly built a bond with them. She was proactive in her communication sending photo and text updates daily. We came home to find our dogs and house were incredibly well cared for and the trash was even taken out to the curb. We'll be recommending her to everyone.
