Pet care experience
Specialized Care for Sensitive Pets
I grew up with a rescue pit bull and three rescue cats, which taught me early on how to provide gentle and compassionate care. In addition to that I've been doing professional animal visits for the last 4 years across multiple platforms, and have been loving the opportunity to meet all of these wonderful animals and families. I personally do very well with anxious or reactive animals, which need a more gentle presence around them. If your pet has any special needs, medications, or health concerns, I’m more than happy to discuss them with you. I’ll always take the time to learn what needs to be done and follow your preferred approach to ensure your pet’s comfort and safety. I am committed to providing a loving home and continuing any training or scheduling already established. My goal is to make you and your pets experience as seamless as possible! This upcoming semester, Fall 2026, I currently have two openings for a weekly walker or drop-in visit routine, I'm available Monday-Wednesday 9:30am-11am, and Tuesday and Thursday afternoons between 4:00pm-6:00pm. I will also be available for drop-in visits or as needed walks, so please feel free to reach out.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it my priority to respect both the pet’s routine and the home itself. I aim to create a calm, comforting environment that helps your pet feel safe and cared for while you're away. I always follow the care instructions you provide closely, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, walks, or playtime routines. Above all, I treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.
Ratings and reviews
Arillia communicated clearly and promptly, arrived on time to drop-in visits, and provided photos while we were away. We were able to relax and know that our kitties were well taken care of in our absence. We will definitely reach out to Arillia in the future!
Arillia has a special way of making my kitty feel cared for while I'm away! She feeds and plays with him and he loves to cuddle with her. I always appreciate the excellent communication, updates and photos!
Great communication! Feel so much better knowing Arillia is checking on Minnie during the day.
Arillia has been great with our shy dog! Minnie has warmed up to her so much in a few days. The updates and pictures are also appreciated.
I'm so thrilled that my kitty Kato sees Arillia's strengths and warmth as a caregiver, which means he not only plays, cuddles, but also EATS (!) while I'm away. We're so lucky to have Arillia and the extra TLC she brings.
Arillia recently took care of my cat she very patient and ensured he was comfortable with her as he can be shy. She went above and beyond and he eventually came out and they had a great session. I'd highly recommend Arillia and would love to have her back next time I need care.

Schedule
This upcoming semester, Fall 2026, I currently have two openings for a weekly walker or drop-in visit routine, I'm available Monday-Wednesday 9:30am-11am, and Tuesday and Thursday afternoons between 4:00pm-6:00pm. I will also be available for drop-in visits or as needed walks, so please feel free to reach out. I work from home in the Mission/Excelsior region, and go to school at CCSF, so I have a fairly flexible weekday schedule outside of Wednesdays and can often accommodate short-notice bookings. However, since I rely on public transit, I’m currently limiting services to locations within about a 30-minute bus ride from Balboa Park.
