A little about me

Hi, I'm Ariane.

I trained at Triple Crown Academy in Hutto, Texas, where I earned a diploma in Canine Training and Animal Behavior. After gaining two years of experience with a well-established company, I launched my own dog-walking business in San Francisco in 2006 and ran it successfully for 14 years. With this expertise, I provide safe, enriching walks and personalized in-home boarding, ensuring each dog receives the highest level of care. After taking a short break to start my family, I've relocated to Portland and am excited to bring my passion and skills back to the community. After being a stay-at-home mom for four years, I'm now fully back in the dog care business full time. Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine, and I've intentionally structured my schedule around providing consistent, attentive care to the dogs I work with. We have a very friendly chocolate lab (Leroi) and an indoor/outdoor cat (Banana) who is very accustomed to other dogs coming in and out of her spa
