An outdoor enthusiast and dog lover

Pet care experience

I have always had a dog or two to care for in my house and I have cared for friend's dogs while they were out of town. I have also cared for an APD golden retriever ( approx. 120 lb) for an extended period time at my boss’s house. I care for dogs by feeding them, walking them, and cleaning up after them. I am capable of taking extremely good care for dogs and I can spend hours playing and giving them attention. I used to have a diabetic dog therefore I know how to give insulin and feed pills to a dog, if needed. I am fit enough to walk or run long distances and to manage larger, stronger dogs. The best way to contact me would be through my cell phone.

Arika was very great with staying with out dogs over a long weekend. She was very communicative with me and the dogs seems relaxed and happy when we got home. I would love for her to watch our dogs again!

For the best in-home care for your pets, I like to stick to their routine and make sure they are comfortable in the time that you are away.

Information Arika G. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the dog is not friendly towards other dogs, any medical conditions, as well as what are the most common things that scare/anger the dog.

A typical day

Depending on the ability of the dog I like to go on long trail walks. Some fun activities would be playing with fetch outside in the yard, going for a run, or just simply taking a nap.
