In both my home and my clients' homes, safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I create a secure environment by removing potential hazards and providing designated areas for play and rest.

Information Ria R. would like to know about your pet
As I prepare to welcome your furry friends into my care, I want to ensure that their stay is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Your pets' well-being is my top priority, which is why I encourage you to share any important information about their medical history, special needs, or behavioral quirks. Whether it's allergies, medication requirements, specific dietary preferences, or anxiety triggers, knowing these details allows me to tailor my care to meet their individual needs. Additionally, any insights into their favorite activities, routines, or training commands help me create a positive and enriching experience for them during their stay. Your input is invaluable in providing the best possible care for your pets, so please don't hesitate to share any information that you believe will help me understand and accommodate their unique personalities and requirements. Thank you for entrusting me with the well-being of your beloved pets. I look forward to providing them with the love, attention, and care they deserve.
A typical day
A typical day in my care is designed to be both fun and fulfilling for the pets I watch. Living in Centretown, with its proximity to the Ottawa Canal and numerous parks, offers a fantastic setting for outdoor adventures. Each day might start with a refreshing stroll along the Ottawa Canal or a romp in one of the nearby parks, allowing pets to stretch their legs and take in the sights and smells of nature. For more active pups, I'm conveniently located near several dog parks where they can socialize and burn off energy with games of fetch or playful interactions with other dogs. Whether it's a leisurely walk or an energetic play session, I adapt activities to suit each pet's personality and needs. Throughout the day, we'll engage in stimulating playtime with toys, interactive games, and plenty of cuddles and belly rubs. I believe in providing a well-rounded experience that includes both physical exercise and mental stimulation. In the warmer months, we might enjoy picnics in the park or splash around in the water at designated dog-friendly areas. And for those who prefer quieter moments, there's always time for a cozy nap or some relaxing indoor activities. My goal is to ensure that each pet in my care has a memorable and enjoyable day filled with love, adventure, and plenty of tail-wagging fun.

Reviews
Ria is absolutely amazing with our cats. She went above and beyond with not just taking care of them, but also ensuring our place is kept tidy when the cats are feeling too “zoomy”. We will most definitely use her services again. Thank you so much!
It was a great experience! The meet-and-greet went well. I think my cats liked Ria already at that time 🤣 and I could see right away that she was very caring. She listened carefully to some of the specific instructions I had. Communication was very easy; Ria sent daily messages and multiple pictures throughout the whole time. Can't recommend enough!!
A true blessing for pet parents like me! She's not just a caregiver; she's family. Shortie and Fitz adore her, and I have complete peace of mind knowing they're in her loving care. Ria's attention to detail, patience, and genuine love for animals make her the perfect choice for anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. I can't thank her enough for the love and joy she brings to our furry family members!
Ria is a godsend for pet owners like myself! Her genuine care and affection for animals shine through in everything she does. Snow always returns home happy and well-cared for after spending time with Ria. I trust her completely with my fur baby and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and loving pet caregiver.
