My kitties were very well taken care of and happy when they arrived home. They did an absolutely amazing job and sent so many pictures and are very kind!

Hector was excellent taking care of Tilly who needed daily medications! He was very responsive when booking, great communication and flexible for drop off and pickup. Will definitely use his services again! Thank you for the great care.

Hector was fabulous! We had him watch our 6mo old puppy for a few hours. We contacted him last minute and he responded immediately. He was kind and courteous when we met, showing us his cute little appt. He took our pup on a few walks and gave him cuddles. He sent picture updates. Thanks so much Hector!!

Hector was diligent to take care of the parents as well as the fur baby Bear settled in and loved Hector's attention. We were concerned he wouldn't want to go home! We were able to engage Hector at the last minute as we were vacationing and the weather changed on us so we couldn't leave Bear in the car at all. We greatly appreciate Hector's availability and willingness to take care of us at the last minute.

Hector and Sofia have now welcomed and cared for my 2-year-old dog, Wilson, three times this year. Most recently, they stepped in on very short notice for a last-minute trip I had to Baltimore, and I can’t express how grateful I am for their hospitality and flexibility. I know Wilson is always in good hands with them – they treat him with such love and care. I highly recommend Hector and Sofia to anyone looking for reliable, caring sitters. Thank you both again for everything!

Schedule

Hi! My name is Hector Arias. My family has always had a dog growing up and I have experience owning and taking care of them. I am currently waiting for orders to ship out to military training so I have lots of time to care and keep your pet company. I went vegetarian 8 years ago for the purpose of not harming/consuming animals. I love all animals and would do my best to give them lots of belly rubs and attend to all their needs.
