Pet care experience
Dog Walks, Drop-Ins & Cozy Cat Care
About me- I watched my coworker’s dog full time for 6-8 months as they were raising a newborn, and then moved to Cambridge in 2018 for grad school. Since then, I've been watching pets for friends and family friends, as well as on rover after I finished up school. I just moved to Boulder, and would love to add some pet care to my life again! I particularly like bigger dogs and am happy to run alongside a more energetic pet if that’s what they want to do! Also absolutely love cats! Dog walking- happy to walk around the Boulder area; really anywhere I can reasonably get to quickly on a bike. Relatively flexible weekend schedule! Drop ins (cats and dogs)- similarly to above, happy to go anywhere in the Boulder

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I'm extremely responsible and timely with pet-care tasks! In my other, full-time job life, I'm wrapping up a graduate degree in science, so really detail oriented and good about writing down what I've done; checklists are great! For pet care in your home (drop-ins and longer stays), I'm neat and tidy and will leave your space in good order! For walks, I love being outside, running/walking/hiking and am so happy to do that with your adorable pet by my side!
Ratings and reviews
Arvind is awesome and was super responsive throughout the whole process! He made multiple check-ins on our cats over the weekend and the picture updates were GREATLY appreciated! Would definitely book again!
Arvind was able to accommodate for a last-minute request spanning several days and took such great care of our dog. Normally a bit wary of strangers and staying home alone, our dog looked calm and happy in the many photos Arvind took. Plus, he left us various notes on our dog’s behavior, how he was doing, and the treats/feeding schedule. It was so comforting to know that while we were out of town, someone else was making sure our baby was cared for to the utmost extent. Thank you Arvind!
Arvind was great with our dog. Looking forward to hiring him again soon!
Arvind was a great catsitter for Merlin! He always reached out with any questions and was quick to respond to any questions I had. I came back to a happy cat that was well taken care of.
Arvind did a great job and was reliable and communicative. My cat really liked him!
Arvind took great care of our cats while we were away. He was very responsive when we spoke and provided helpful updates.

Schedule
I’ve just recently wrapped up graduate school, and am working a few evenings a week at a lovely neighborhood bar! I’m fairly free during the day (especially for a lunchtime walk or visit), and during the evenings when I’m not scheduled to work! In the past I've had to plan more around traveling to care for friends' pets, but I'm hoping to have lots of flexible animal-time in my life now, especially with not being able to commit to having my own pets.

- Let me know if your pet has any special needs that I need to account for! This can be behavioral, related to food or play, or anything really. Anything is okay here, but more information is always appreciated!
