"Suite" Life of Riley
Pet care experience
When the parent's are away...the dogs should play! Offering personalized care. Dog walks, vet visits, play dates, overnight stays in your home ....whatever Fido needs. In addition to the insurance provided by Rover.com, Suite Life of Riley is also an established LLC in the state of NC that is fully insured, bonded and CPR/1st Aid Certified. Taking care of your fur-babies is my passion and full-time career - not a hobby. Whether your pup needs an overnight human roommate in your home, a short potty break or just a visit to keep them calm - I've got you covered. "Life of Riley" noun, Informal. a carefree, comfortable, and thoroughly enjoyable way of living. I've been an avid volunteer in dog rescue for over 15 years and have experience with dog handling of all breeds, basic training and fostering. I've had over 20 foster dogs in my care over the years and eventually failed with one who is now my "Riley". After seeing how traumatic it is for our loved ones to be "caged" while their parents are away, it became my dream to find a way to help make sure your pets are taken care of like family when you can't be home with them.
Reviews
I can't say enough great things about Kathleen! From pre-booking to the questions I had before and during my vacation, she was incredible. She spent a great deal of time during our first visit, getting to know my dogs and go over any questions I had. We stayed in touch (my trip was two months away) and she came back two days before I left for a quick visit to get re-acclimated with my pups. During my vacation, she sent me texts and photos to keep me up to date on how they were doing. My dogs and cats are like my children - so to hear from her was such a wonderful thing! It really helps ease your mind. Kathleen also stayed in my home and took wonderful care of it! She brought in the mail, pulled the trash bins up, spent the night with the animals (my zoo) so they had company. I would recommend Kathleen to anyone and everyone who is looking for a pet sitter. Whether it's for a fifteen minute walk or overnight stays. I can't wait to use her again - and I know my pets can't either! Thank you so much for everything! Kelley

Kathleen is experienced, flexible and loves all pets. Everything is ask for in a sitter.
Kathleen was very responsive & professional. Daisy was well taken care of & we had peace of mind with the updates and pictures after each home visit.
About Kathleen W.

Skills
Information Kathleen W. would like to know about your pet
Age/breed if know. If you can provide details of an average day for your pet (are they crated, is there a yard, walks required per day, any separation anxiety that requires more time spent in the home).
A typical day
Your pets are family and when you take a vacation or have to be away for work you shouldn't have to worry about your loved ones. I've fostered over 20 dogs who came to me scared, abused and terrified of humans. After only days of being in a loving home, they were soon able to be adopted. I'm here to make sure when you're away, your dog is taken care of like you would. Please feel free to email before any booking so we can discuss the detailed nature of the stay to determine any final rates based on the care required for your animal. I highly recommend a free Meet & Greet before booking so we can ensure a great fit and stress free stay for your pet ! :)
