Hello!! Caring for animals is a mutually beneficial relationship so I will take the best care of your babies and love them almost as much as you love them! My schedule is very flexible and can check in on your pets throughout the day. I’m hoping to help anyone out when work or travel calls you away from your home and pup. I’m reliable, can give you any updates as needed and want to make this process as easy as possible for you. I have two cats in the home. They’re great with older/laid back dogs. At this time I don’t have the ability to board dogs younger than 1.5 years old and high energy pups. Some new news I will be adding our first human baby in late October, so through January may have a little one in tow if that’s okay with you for check-ins/dog walking. I collectively have about 10 years of pet sitting. Looking forward to meeting you and your dog(s)/pets!! Your dog must have up to date flea and tick treatment. I can also do regular walks and check ins at a discounted rate if needing a consistent schedule. Contact me if you have any questions about this.

Arin was very reliable and communicative while we were away. She provided updates and pictures and provided great care which made us feel more comfortable being away from our fur babies.

Arin was great watching my two cats while I went out of town. She communicated well and made it easy to trust her!

Arin was a responsible and competent dog sitter for my dog . She played with Myla outside as I had instructed and sent me photos and updates during the day. I will definitely use her again when the occasion permits. I’m very pleased with the quality of care.

Arin was great watching Romeo for the day. She was super responsive and provided updates about Romeo during his stay. Romeo was curious about her cats but one did not seem to particularly love Romeo and she quickly told me that she would place the cats in a different room which was great. Overall a great experience and would use her again if Romeo needed another sitter.

She responded quickly to our unexpected need of a pet sitter and came for a meet and greet. Our kitty was well fed. Thank you.

Schedule

I work as a therapist and my practice has varied appointments but I don’t work a traditional 9-5. I may go into the office early afternoons or have some stretches of time during the day where I can step away, so please ask! If I have enough notice I can plan around desired visit times. Fridays I WFH and my husband is home most afternoons by about 4:30.
