I am not able to accommodate your pets in my house, my two boss cats whom I work for don’t share me very well in their house. I try and keep your pets schedule as normal as possible while you’re away to help relieve stress and anxiety they maybe having. I make sure your house is clean incase there were any accidents, and your home will be locked up nice and tight.

Information Richard B. would like to know about your pet

If you have any special needs or routines for your pet, please let me know, so I can account for the time they need plus some play time.

A typical day

I love to keep your pets on their normal schedule as possible. I love to play toys, brush their fur and go to parks. I also like to take pictures of your animals so you can always see how happy they are.

Pet care experience

I grew up in a house with 5 humans, 2 dogs and 6 cats. It’s safe to say, I love pets. From the age of 12, I’ve been taking care of family and friends animals. Throughout my adult life I have always been employed by at least two cat bosses. I live to spoil animals while you’re away, and I’m best known for leaving sarcastically accurate journals of all that happened while you were away, from your pets perspective.

Richard was GREAT! We have a senior dog that can no longer be boarded. Having our two pets in their own home was such a comfort. Richard kept them on schedule and we returned to happy, healthy pups! He provided daily updates with photos and candid captions. It gave us peace of mind to know our pups were having a good time and getting treated well.

Richard was fantastic with our cats while we were away on a cruise. Great communication, very reliable, and sent us pics of our babies daily! He gave them all the love and play they needed. We came home to happy cats and would absolutely book again!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Richard! He is truly a wonderful human, and one of the best sitters I have ever met. He did everything perfectly. From listening to every single note or tip that we had about our dog, to making sure that our pup spent his time with him walking and playing and snuggling and chewing on his favorite bones… Every single need was met, or over met, and our dog was spoiled! Our home was left beautifully, Richard communicated and talked with us constantly, sent pictures and updates, and was just generally an incredible gift to us on our vacation. He was also wonderful person to person. He gave us some really great trip tips, was always here on time, and made me feel so at ease. He really is wonderful and I cannot recommend him enough! Thank you so much!! I really appreciate you, Richard.
