Pet care experience
A Dog's Paradise : )
My name is Kemba, Rover may list me as Rich A, but clients know me simply as someone who provides premium, discreet, and deeply attentive private pet and home care. Animals have been part of my life since I was six or seven, growing up between Africa and Asia surrounded by dogs and all kinds of wildlife. I later spent over nine years working at a zoo, which shaped my respect for animal behavior, safety, and individualized care. Today, I spend much of my time in the woods hiking and swimming with our almost 16 year-old chocolate Lab, Brownie. I bring over two decades of hands-on experience in dog sitting, fostering puppies, dog walking, doggy day care, and basic behavior support. I understand how difficult it can be to find someone trustworthy, reliable, and discreet—someone who treats your pets and your home with the same respect as their own. Partially “retired,” I now focus my time and flexibility on this passion. My services cater to high-end, confidential in-home care but I can also provide on-demand walks and drop-in visits most days. I follow your instructions exactly, while also using judgment, experience, and common sense to ensure each pet’s comfort, safety, and emotional well-being. Every dog, every home, and every family is unique—and I tailor my care accordingly. For photos of the facility, testimonials, and additional information, visit Casa De Canine on Facebook.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Without a doubt 5 stars! ✨ We were in the area for the weekend and one of the days we had an activity that our dog was not able to come with. Our dog can be strong willed and will take advantage of his size if he thinks he can get away with it. I initially chose Rich/aka Kemba on Rover because his profile pic was with an Akita! Regardless of that, Kemba was the perfect match for Rocky! He sent us some photos of their adventures out and about, and a sweet video walking (with a loose leash, no one was being pulled like a kite!) with a friend's dog. Our drop off and pickup was super smooth. Kemba made a suggestion for our meeting location that made it easy and he delivered Rocky to us at our Airbnb at the end of the afternoon. I felt complete confidence in Kemba's judgement and care with our boy.

Awesome and reliable!!

Rich did a great job communicating with us and giving us frequent photos/ videos of our dog while we were away. We came home to a clean house & a happy dog.
Thanks for taking good care of our pup!

Thank you for walking my pup especially since it’s winter and can be a bit challenging
