Experienced dog sitter
Pet care experience
I have spent my entire life living with and caring for dogs. Most of the dogs my family and I have had have been rescues and seniors. This has resulted in me being experienced in caring for several breeds of dogs, multiple ages and dogs with anxiety issues or histories of abuse. I am particularly passionate about caring for senior animals and one of my goals is to open a senior dog sanctuary some day where I can provide a loving and caring environment for some elderly pups to enjoy their remaining time. I do require all dogs I dog sit to be housetrained. Other than that, I do not have many requirements. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns! Thanks so much!
Reviews
Reilly was so great with Veto. He seemed so happy and loved with lots of activity provided. Reilly was so flexible with pick up and drop off times and she even delivered him home to me herself. ??
Reilly took great care of my pup Belle and even gave me a summary of Belle’s weekend. I’ll definitely keep her in mind for future care.
This testimonial is easy to write because I've known Reilly her whole life and she LOVES dogs. To be honest, dogs seem to love Reilly right back. She's a natural. She has an uncanny ability to relate to them and is always anticipating any needs: food, water, walk, and cuddles. Reilly has always had a dog at home and it seems as if she might miss her two dogs a little more than her human family sometimes. She is always sending videos and funny photos of dogs to us. Reilly is the eldest of four kids and is very responsible. She's been a caretaker her whole life. I whole heartedly recommend Reilly. Whoever gets matched with her is a LUCKY DOG!

I understand how difficult it can be to trust another person when it comes to caring for a loved pet. When I am watching your dog I will put the same kind of attention and care into watching them as I would for my own dog. A few things that I can guarantee: - Whenever your dog is outside my apartment they will be on leash and by my side safe and sound - I will not allow other dogs/animals that are unleashed approach your dog or be near it - Whenever your dog and I are out or on walk I will make sure that I am 100% present and my attention will be focused your dog

Information Reilly D. would like to know about your pet
How much one on one time does your dog prefer? Are they good with other animals or should I avoid situations where they would come into contact with other dogs?
A typical day
I could take the dog on walks in my neighborhood and through local parks. There is also a dog park in my apartment complex if the dog enjoys socializing with other dogs, however, I definitely prefer to keep your pup safe and away from other dogs just in case.

I work from home 5 days a week but with my current work schedule I am unable to commit to owning a dog myself. That being said, I would love to be able to help a busy dog owner.
