Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to meet your pet where they are at and only use crates if that is what they are used to and comfortable with. I also always walk dogs with a leash and harness and prioritize safety. I will only let them off leash inside the home or at a fenced dog park with your approval.

Information Arin P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors to look out for. For example, their eating habits and if they are friendly or not to other dogs or humans. I would also like to know whether or not they are potty trained so I know if I need to watch out for accidents.

A typical day

A typical day with me will involve a long walk or hike with some jogging for exercise and strolling and exploring so your dog can smell everything. I also take some time to play fetch, tug-of-war, and give belly rubs or whatever they want to do! I will never take your dog anywhere or let them interact with other people or dogs without your permission. Let me know if there is a particular place they do or don’t like to walk or a park they like!

Appreciator of cats!

Cat care experience

I’ve taken care of cats helping raise kittens as well as care for elderly cats. I have administered oral medication to cats, and I understand cats need space and love and to feel safe and respected!

So pleased with Arin checking in on my cat Nellie while I was away several days. She fed her dinner each night and kept her some company. Nellie is a bit shy and takes time to warm up and Arin was patient with her. Responsive, on time check ins, and shared how each visit went! Very happy with all of Arin’s help.
