I keep a close eye on the animals, and ensure that they all get along. Being here at home also helps ensure they do not act up.

I would definitely book Ricardo again! He sent me lots of pictures and reports on how they were doing throughout the day. One of our dogs even had an accident and Ricardo went out of his way to take him to several vets because we didn’t have an emergency vet. Despite the accident my pups had a great time with Ricardo!

Ricardo is so wonderful with my kitties Declan and Sebastian. He has watched them a few times now while I have been traveling. Ricardo goes above and beyond! He cares for them as if they were his own pets. I love the pictures he sends when he visits with them (the pics are usually of them all over him trying to get rubs lol). Most importantly, I really enjoy the peace of mind he provides me when I have to leave them for extended periods of times. I don't if I will be able to trust another sitter the way I trust him with them. 15/10, would recommend.

Ricardo has loved my Elle for the last 12 years! I trust that he will spoil her as much as I do. When he comes in Elle legit goes crazy! When he leaves, she cries!! When I got a second dog, George, Ricardo was one of the first to bring treats and give special snuggles to his "best girl" so she felt special in her new role as a big sister. I know that when I travel, Ricardo shows up when he is supposed to and my girls are well fed, exercised and loved.

Ricardo took awesome care of my two pups! He’s very responsive, and works from home so he’s able to be with them most of every day. One of my pups was having an issue with me being gone, and Ricardo reached out to see what he could do to make it easier for him! I wouldn’t hesitate to have him watch them again.
