CANNOT CARE FOR REACTIVE DOGS. I'm not currently working a regular job, so I have lots of free time to care for your pets! As long as I haven't already committed to caring for other animals, I'm happy to accommodate your schedule to make sure your pet gets the best and most reliable care.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment, which I understand isn't suitable for all dogs, but it is very safe and clean and is already accommodating a revolving door of my friends and family's animals. The building is extremely pet-friendly and has an elevator to accommodate any pups with mobility issues. I take dogs on lots of potty walks throughout the day and live in a great neighbourhood for long, scenic walks. Due to the communal nature of apartments, I am UNABLE TO CARE FOR REACTIVE DOGS.

Information Arissa R. would like to know about your pet
I'd appreciate as much info about your pet's quirks beforehand. Are they picky about how they like to be walked or take their food? Allergies? Favourite toys/treats? Do they hate measuring tapes (true story!)? I'm happy to accommodate your pet's wants/needs to make sure they feel the most cared for! Unfortunately, I am unable to care for reactive dogs in my home at this time. I live in an apartment that's very busy with dogs and people, so it would be too stressful and potentially dangerous. However, I'm happy to spend some time with them during check-ins in your home.
A typical day
Depends on the dog! I take care of dogs that don't care much for being outside, so we spend tons of time inside just snuggling and playing with toys. For dogs that love being outside, I live in a great neighbourhood for going on long or short walks, and there are some really cute parks around me for exploring and lying around in. I also like to drive to further parks for additional exploration. Depending on our mutual comfort and your dog's grasp of recall, I also like to go to Brenda Liepsik Dog Park on occasion. As I live in an apartment, we'll at the very least go on regular 15-20 minute potty walks throughout the day.

Pet care experience
As a passionate animal lover, I provide personalized and loving care for both dogs and cats. I will make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared-for while you're away. From fun playtime to cuddles and health management, we’ll have a blast together while keeping your furry friend comfortable and happy! With experience managing animals with unique healthcare needs (like specialized diets, injections, asthma treatment, pills, and eye/ear drops), I’ll ensure your pet gets the best care. Please note, while tips are very generous and deeply appreciated, I do not expect them for my services. I set my prices to a point that I'm comfortable with the income and am not relying on you to supplement anything. You're already paying a lot of money to have your pet cared for so please don't feel pressured just because Rover prompts you.

Arissa also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Arissa was fantastic. She took excellent care of our pets while we were away, including administering oral medication. She was consistent, friendly, professional, and bonded quickly with our pets. We were able to go away and feel completely comfortable with the care of pets. Strongly recommend!
Arissa was so great! She sent update photos and little check-ins throughout Thor’s stay. My puppy had such a lovely time 🥰🩷 I will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. ✨💛
Arissa is the BEST dog sitter. My dog is so happy going to stay at her home. She gets lots of walks and attention and Arissa always provides lots of updates. We look forward to booking another stay.
We are so grateful for the amazing care that Arissa provided our two kitties. She went above and beyond caring for them and ensuring we received regular updates. Arissa was truly amazing and our kitties had the best time with her. It was sweet knowing that she truly got to know our two kitties and cared for the comforts they love. Arissa also went above and beyond in the way she left our home and we can’t recommend her enough. She truly loves pets and has a heart of gold!
