About Arilynn C.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a house nestled in the trees with a very nice yard, I also live next door to a nice park with a large running space and some small trails. I always carry everything I might need in any emergency situation with an animal I’m taking care of, I am very aware of my surroundings and am very good at catching animals behaviors before any situation has escalated and am able to prevent them, from both my animals and strangers. I have spent lots of time training and many hours learning about animals and the physical warnings they show in discomfort, I have always been able to safely remove or prevent my own pets as well as clients from a stressful situation. I have no trouble standing up for my animal if a stranger isn’t taking proper care of theirs and will always put myself between them and harms way.

Information Arilynn C. would like to know about your pet
I definitely want to hear a little bit about your pets personality beforehand, what I can expect or any weird/random things they might do. Every animal has its quirks and I like to be able to plan accordingly for the situation, also if your dog is high energy, a big swimmer or anything similar I’d love to know beforehand so I can bring hiking shoes, a towel or water toys, etc.!
A typical day
Rain or shine I believe getting dogs outside is super important for their health! I will be taking your dog to the park, lots of walks, to the lake (if they swim), and potentially on hikes for high energy dogs. I always make sure to play with toys with any animal I watch as well as provide mental enrichment for older animals or pets restricted to smaller areas. I’d love to know if your dog is high energy so I can come prepared!

Loving all pets like my own🐾🩵
Pet care experience
I’ve spent my entire life growing up around many types of animals and was always taught to treat each one like family 🩵 I started caring for others pets around 12 years old and have taken care of many species and breeds of animals, owned multiple exotic animals of my own (frogs currently🐸), co-ran a pet sitting business for multiple years where I was watching up to 13+ animals at some points, and am comfortable with every breed-from the never ending energy of a border collie to taking it easy with a senior dog or sitting with them for an hour just to earn a little trust for anxious pups. I am a young, responsible and professional adult, I love the outdoors and taking dogs out into it, I am someone who thrives in an organized environment and am patient and more than willing to work with animals that need to build trust. My top priority is always the safety and happiness of the pets I take care of, always ensuring they are getting the mental stimulation they need as well as knowing their behavior and being able to accordingly keep them in situations they are comfortable and happy in.

Reviews
This was an amazing stay for River, she got tons of amazing walks.
Arilynn C. cancelled a booking 3 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Patient, caring, responsible, potty trained, sits well, great photos, flexible, keeps my dog SOX smiling, great long off leash trails, SOX was not certain he wanted to leave...only treats got him to come home.
Arilynn did great with Charlie! She came back rested and not overstimulated- a great dogsitter if you have an active breed. Looking forward to future bookings, thank you so much!
