Travel advising with a Japan habit. Trusted pet care in New York. iOS apps I wanted to exist. One person, three crafts, one address — howdy@itsaydrian.com.
Howdy, I'm Aydrian. I run a one-person studio in New York for the work I most want to do.
That work falls into three buckets: helping people travel well (especially in Japan), looking after pets in my Manhattan neighborhood, and building small, careful software that I think the world should have.
These aren't side hustles — they're the actual jobs. Every booking, walk, and download routes through this LLC. If any of them sound useful, please get in touch.
All run through ItsAydrian LLC. Pick whichever fits — they're equally serious.
I'm an independent Fora-certified advisor specializing in Japan, solo trips, and budget-conscious itineraries that still feel curated. Hotel perks, restaurant access, and a real plan for the day you wake up jet-lagged.
Walks, sits, and overnight care across Manhattan. 5-star rated, enhanced background check, and a personal corgi (Atticus) who keeps me honest. New clients get $20 off their first booking.
Toys, treats, supplements, and walking gear we actually use, with reviews enthusiastically dictated by Atticus himself. As an Amazon affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases — none of which Atticus understands.
Small, opinionated tools — built carefully, sold simply, no account required.
Track recurring upkeep — filters, oil changes, fertilizing, vet visits — with reminders, templates, and a one-tap "done" that resets the schedule. Offline. Private. No login.
I prefer to ship things when they're ready rather than tease screenshots. If you'd like early access when they land, send a note.
