Every other day, I am out of school at 11:30, on the other days I am out at 3:25. I get up before school and go to the gym, which can easily be substituted for watching and caring for a pet. I work part-time, usually 2-3 shifts a week from 4:30-10:30 pm. That being said, I have plenty of time in the in-between of other activities to spend time with the animals. I work and live my best life with a schedule, so its no hassle to add in a furry animal in the mix!

Safety, trust & environment

In the client's home, I will make sure all doors and fences are locked before and after my time over at the place. Lights will be off unless told otherwise. It will only be me in your home with your pets for safety purposes. All rules and directions will be followed, and I am not hesitant to reach out and ask questions because your pet's well-being and safety is important to me.

Pet care experience

I started caring for dogs by the age of 13. Since then, I have been a reliable and safe pet sitter. I have grown up and taken care of larger dogs, which is where most of my experience has come from. I have cared for little and medium-sized dogs. I love quality time with the animals. Pet-sitting isn't just about letting them out and feeding them; it's about quality time. All dogs have a unique personality, and I love learning about who they are. That way, even when you're away, they are not alone.

Ariella took great care of our very shy and anxious dog Maddie. She was patient and sweet with our girl and even spent extra time during her visits with Maddie to help her feel more comfortable. Will definitely use her in the future!

Ariella took amazing care of my senior dog Chyna and my cat Suki while I was out of town. She was incredibly patient with Chyna and took her time to make sure she was comfortable and cared for every step of the way. You can truly tell Ariella has a genuine love for animals and treats them like her own. After having a not so good experience with another Rover sitter in the past, I was honestly nervous about leaving my fur babies again. But Ariella completely changed that for me. She kept me at ease, provided the ultimate care, and made sure both Chyna and Suki were happy and well cared for while I was away. I would absolutely trust Ariella again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive to watch their precious fur babies.
