Safety, trust & environment

I always prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow feeding schedules, respect house rules, and ensure pets are supervised, calm, and secure. I keep environments clean, safe, and stress-free, and I communicate clearly with owners to ensure peace of mind.

Information Ricardo S. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know about your pet’s routine, energy level, and any special needs in advance. Please let me know about medications, dietary restrictions, fears, or behavioral quirks so I can provide the best and most comfortable care possible.

A typical day

A typical day includes morning walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I enjoy engaging pets both physically and mentally through games, enrichment activities, and exploring nearby parks or new smells in the neighborhood. I always adapt activities to each pet’s energy level and personality.

Pet care experience

I have experience caring for pets of different ages and personalities, from playful puppies to calm senior pets. Friends and family trust me to walk, feed, and look after their pets with care and attention. What sets me apart is my patience and ability to adapt to each pet’s needs, whether that means extra playtime, gentle care for older pets, or maintaining routines. I always make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

Ricky was so sweet to Theo! He updated me with texts and pics during my trip. Will definitely trust him with my baby again!

Riky is amazing with pets and has a natural ability to understand each one, making them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. He is reliable, punctual, and responsible, but what truly sets him apart is the genuine bond he builds with every pet. Any pet owner can feel confident knowing their furry friends are in caring and trustworthy hands with him. ✨💖✨
