Pet care experience
Best sitter for your fur babies!
Hi, my name is Ary, I’m originally from California. I've been around dogs of all sizes since I was 10. My boyfriend helps me with dog sitting. We both work from home and have a lot of time to focus on your pet. We love taking them for short/long walks around the neighborhood and some play time at the park. We have an adorable mini Australian golden doodle, Tala. She's is very good with other dogs; she is playful and well behaved. I have experience taking care dogs special needs and could administer medication as needed. We would gladly take care of pets that are potty trained and friendly with other dogs. I can't wait to meet your fur babies!

Ratings and reviews
Maria is amazing! She took great care of our dog for a 10 day boarding while we were traveling, which we booked last minute due to change of plans. Ellie had a great time and was extremely well cared for by Maria. Maria also sent us awesome pictures every day to ease our minds. We would (and will!) book boarding again with Maria.
Ari was the best Rover sitter we've ever had! Our Samoyed (Aster) was initially with another sitter, but unfortunately he ate something that caused diarrhea. Eventually the initial sitter requested for Aster to be transferred. Since we were out of town at the time, we were initially stressed to find out that our dog needed urgent transfer of care. It was at that point that we found Ari. Ari immediately reassured us, empathized with our situation, and told us exactly how she would take care of Aster. Ari asked great questions showing us that she wanted to take care of Aster to the same degree that we do. Ari actually exceeded all of our expectations. Ari was amazing in her communication due to her clarity and consistency in giving us daily updates on Aster's health. More than this, Ari also genuinely seemed to care about Aster and Aster really seemed to care about her! To describe Ari's care, we would call it professional, consistent, and kind. We are so so glad we found Ari and could not have asked for a better sitter to take care of Aster! We highly recommend Ari to anyone. We have complete confidence in Ari's care and will certainly be requesting it going forward!
Maria was amazing! She provided photos of our dog Oakley every day and took her on plenty of walks! Oakley had such a great time with her dog Tala as well! We will be booking with Maria again ☺️😊
Maria was absolutely incredible! You can tell she really cares about taking the time to know your pet and their needs, and was super diligent in providing information upfront to make sure I was comfortable. She was extremely professional and provided Blue with a great experience from start to finish. She took the best care of Blue, sent regular updates with photos, and Blue looked so happy in every photo I received. I am so happy with Maria and her care and would definitely recommend booking with her.
Maria took great care of Mae Belle and she and Tala got along well. Maria was super communicative and sent tons of pictures. She was also flexible and gave a lot of love to my very needy girl. The photos she took were also gorgeous. I'm seriously considering have one or two of them professionally printed. I would definitely use her again to take care of Mae.
Aria and George were so easy to work with and made my first daycare experience very easy! They sent pictures during the day and were communicative. It's clear they know so much about dogs and their needs.

My boyfriend and I both work from home. So your fur babies will get round-the-clock attention! We like to stay active and we are both available on weekends.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We live in a spacious condo very close to parks. We typically ask the owners to pack their dog's bed and/or their favorite blanket to make them feel comfortable in our home. We prefer not to crate unless requested by the owner. We keep an eye on our pets all the time; they will not be left unattended for a long periods of time.
Pets
A typical day
We love hanging out and getting to know the pets we take care of. We live in a beautiful neighborhood for dog-walking, not too far from Smith Park, Humboldt Park, and 626 Park. We typically take our pets out for three walks a day. Depending on the weather, your dog will surely get lots of exercise and playtime with our dog Tala.
