I'm a personal chef who works from home. I live with my husband, Daniel, who works in IT and also works from home. We have 2 adorable Westies, Beans and Riso. One of us is almost always home, so your loved one won’t be lonely. We frequent a lot of parks in the area when we aren’t playing “chase the squirrel” in the backyard. We love dogs and our dogs like to socialize. Let’s have a quick “Meet and Greet” initially to see that your dog is comfortable in our home. Let us know if we can be of assistance to your family. We look forward to meeting you. Have a great day!! -Richard, Daniel, Beans and Riso

Information Richard C. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about a dogs temperament and any issues that could present themselves during the stay. I would prefer to meet dogs at first and make sure they are a good fit for us. Even if it is a brief meeting, I would like to know each dog I'm sitting for as well as I could.

A typical day

Beans and I go for walks usually by Alki, Lincoln Park and Seahurst Park each week. We do frequent Mudd Bay from time to time depending on the activity or the day.

Lucy loved her stay with Richard and came home tired and happy. We received many updates and photos of activities. Richard was such a great host, and we are so happy Lucy was lucky enough to stay with him.

Richard took such wonderful care of my dog that I’m sure she misses him! She is a finicky eater but I think she ate more at his home than her own. I will definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommend.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
