After retiring from my career, I started my pet sitting and dog walking career.

Three of my previous dog clients have shown interest in having me come back to stay with their dogs when they’re out of town for more than a couple days. Pet sitting and dog walking are my primary responsibilities along with taking care of my two cats. I have a very flexible and available schedule. I take pride and making sure that the client’s home is as good if not better when I entered. I will walk the dog, feed or treat, make sure the water bowl is full and also if appropriate snuggles.

Rita W.
“I'm more than happy to recommend Rita Wheeler as a pet sitter. She has been the best cat sitter I've ever had. She's reliable and communicative, and she fully follows care instructions. She's loving to the animals, and she goes above and beyond during her time with them. It put me at ease to know I could trust her to take thoughtful care of my fur babies! The last cat sitter I had wasn't this great, but I didn't suspect she was having a negative effect on my cats until Rita took over. With the last sitter, when I came home from a trip, they would be hiding. After Rita became my cat sitter, they greeted me at the door. This made me realize they felt safer when she came over than the last person. I'm grateful to Rita!”
