Highlights
Pet care experience
You new fav dog sitter
*** If interested in boarding, a 3 night stay is the maximum for a reservation**** I believe dogs are my spirit animal. I not afraid to admit it. I have 2 main dog care experiences. The first is with my brother's dog, Lexi, a gorgeous Pointer Beagle mix. The breed is a big, strong dog with a lot of energy. Whenever we met up, I would take her for 2 separate walks to help run off the energy. It's what favorite uncles do. In between those times, we would have passionate debates about the Game of Thrones. She is a big Khalessi fan... but who isn't. The second was with my neighbor's 2 dachshunds, Obi and Bella, . I would walk and feed the brother and sister duo when my neighbor was not available. Sometimes this would be a last minute thing but I'm very flexible with my time when it comes to canine bonding. I also took care of the lovable rug rats when my neighbor went on vacation. So the dogs felt comfortable, I would stay at the house and provide the typical vacation sitting services, feeding, walking, interpretive dance. etc. I feel these two experiences show my range as a dog care specialist. Whether its a large, high energy canine or a laid back house breed, your dog will get nothing but quality care and smiles. Preferences and details: --I only work with 1 client per stay but can watch up to 3 of the clients dogs. -- Because of my small townhome, I prefer to work with medium to low energy dogs. --If you have dogs that like to dig, we would not be good fit. --I am open to strong, intense dogs walking but it can not be more than 1 dog. --I do not watch cats.

Ratings and reviews
Richard took great care of our three annoying dogs and saltwater fish. He was on time and left the house clean. I highly recommend him for your dog sitting needs.
Richard was wonderful with our older beagle . He helped with meds and was quick to ask follow up questions in order to make sure he was giving the best care . I would book Richard again!
Richard did a wonderful job watching Finn! Would definitely have him watch Finn again!
Richard was absolutely amazing! He was incredibly responsive and took such great care of my dog, Brady. Being able to travel and feel completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands made all the difference. I truly appreciate his care, communication, and attention. highly recommend!
Richard was very helpful and polite. Certainly a gentleman and was great with my dog, even though my dog was scared of him at first, she quickly warmed up to him.
Awesome sitter...will definitely be using again!

Schedule
I am very flexible with availability. I have an online store that requires little management so that leaves me with plenty of time for pet care. ***TO MAXIMIZE MY TIME, I ONLY EXCEPT 2 DAY+ RESERVATIONS.***
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Because I live in a townhome, space is limited. Dogs that would do well in my environment would be canines that have low/medium energy, are not aggressive walkers and do not have long and/or curly hair. For dogs that do not have these qualities, we would not be a good fit.
A typical day
We would take fun walks, at least three a day unless the little one is not an eager walker. Lots of belly rubs when needed.
