Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal Welfare L2 certified ✔️
I recently obtained my Level 2 certificate in animal welfare which allows me to provide an extra level of care to your dog. My understanding of their needs is much greater since accomplishing this also due to the work experience in a busy dog day care, I was quickly brought up to speed managing up to 20 dogs! I have always been passionate about dogs ever since I became a young dog mum, I took my boarder collie dog training when I was 13 and created a fabulous bond which will last a million lifetimes! She lived well into her senior age of 18 where I met all her senior needs 🥰 Unfortunately last year she passed but I loved every minute of being a dog mum so now I'm using my passions to provide a safe and loving environment for other dogs to enjoy as a fun doggy holiday.

Ratings and reviews
Ria was a fantastic dog sitter for our pooches. She was accommodating, flexible and they clearly loved spending time with her. Ria kept me in the loop with what they were getting up to, with plenty of pictures too. I will absolutely be rebooking with her. Thank you Ria!
Ria has looked after our border collie Molly many times with love and care. Taking her on lovely walks. She has also looked after our German shepherd more recently. She clearly loves dogs
Ria has looked after my poodle for on occasions from when I had him as a 9 week old puppy. Ria loves and cares for him just as much as I do and for any dog mumma that’s the most important thing. He goes on lovely walks and I receive “pup dates” as to how his days going which I love to see when I’m on holiday or at work and miss him!! He gets so excited when he sees Ria and pulls to the house on drop off! Would highly recommend Ria to anyone looking for a safe, fun loving care for your dog. Thank you Ria !! We’ll see you very soon !
Ria, stayed at our home for nearly 3 weeks in the summer off 2025 and she was attentive towards our dogs (2 rotties) which is no small task. She sent us regular updates which was brilliant, I can honestly say we are more than happy to have Ria stay at our house again to look after our dogs again can’t recommend enough.

I am always walking and hiking, I am also a self employed hair dresser which means I am often at home or not far from it.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a huge secure garden, which is often referred to as a doggy's paradise! I live in a detached barn conversion with a 360 garden. I have an open plan house, with hard floors perfect for dogs. I live 2 minutes from a park and not far from Leicester centre.
A typical day
I have a big secure garden with lots of things to smell and explore, often leaving my door open to free roam. I love playing with the sticks and toys with the dogs also talking to them and keeping them stimulated!
