Pet care experience
UPDATED 6/18/23 Going through a name change - my name is Ricky! It’s nice to meet you. Over ten years of pet sitting experience and worked several years as a veterinary manager. I love all animals and pet sitting let’s me continue to work with them since leaving vet med. Communication is key to an excellent pet sitting experience! As of June 2023, I will come with a list of questions to make sure we are on the same page and all our bases covered. I will also ask all new clients to review this message before an initial meeting. While I love hanging out with your pets and will work within your parameters of needs, please note that I do have work - my shifts are generally 4 hours but can go up to 8. If you have a special needs fur baby/puppy/kitten etc that needs more than that, I unfortunately will not be a good fit. I also am not able to house sit for you if your home is under heavy construction with active work crews coming/going. Just a personal preference! I enjoy going on walks, and will take your dog with me! (Or cat, if that’s your thing!) I also will leave your place very clean, so you can come home to a tidy house. You can also expect daily photos and updates! :) If you have any other questions, feel free to message me.
Reviews
Rick/Amanda watches our 2 yo corgi Amelia for us whenever we go on long trips. She came recommended from our neighbor. Professional, tidy and clearly loves pups. Has stayed in our place multiple times without any issues, even our apartment staff loves Ricky!!
I have been using Ricky for years to watch my pets. I met them when they were working at a vet clinic years ag: another clinic employee recommended them as my regular pet sitter was leaving the state. Ricky is very communicative and will leave your home very tidy. Ricky is always very clear about their schedule and how long they will be gone, there really isn’t any surprises with them and it makes taking trips so much easier having someone so reliable can’t recommend Ricky enough for pet care
Ricky is great. Asked amazing questions and came over to meet our pets and get to know them. Our house was super tidy when we came home and pets were well cared for.
Ricky is awesome with our big blind dog who needs lots of medication and cuddles! Feel so comfortable leaving our dog with them, I always get lots of happy dog pics. Thanks for once again watching Ny!

Safety, trust & environment
I am extremely clean and tidy! I usually wash bedding, vacuum, and will clean the kitchen after I use it. In many cases I leave the home cleaner than I found it as an extra treat.
Home
Information Amanda B. would like to know about your pet
I need to know if your dog is anxious, nervous around other pets, needs medication or anything else of the sort so I can accommodate their needs. If anything changes medically after initial meeting and before the booking begins, please give me 48 hours notice.
A typical day
I love taking dogs on adventures, walks and hanging ouT with them. If the owner agrees to it, they can also play with my very friendly and gentle doggo, Yoshi!

Availability
I work in a pub so my shifts aren’t very long. I never leave pets alone for more than 6-8 hours on the days I do work. I also recently purchased a scooter so I can zip between work and clients more quickly!
