Pet care experience
Your Dog's Second Best Friend
What sets me apart is the combination of hands-on experience, flexibility, and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable with dogs who have anxiety, unique routines, or behavioral quirks, and I tailor my care to meet each pet’s individual needs. Whether it’s reinforcing good behavior, providing medication, or just being a calm, consistent presence, I focus on building trust with every pet I meet. I treat your pets like my own — with care, respect, and plenty of love.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are my top priorities, whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours. At my home, pets enjoy a secure, fully fenced yard with plenty of space to play and explore under supervision. I keep the environment calm, clean, and free of hazards, with separate areas available if a pet needs personal space. I closely follow each pet’s routine, dietary needs, and behavior cues to keep them comfortable and happy. In a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect and care as I do the pets — keeping things tidy, following instructions closely, and providing regular updates to give you peace of mind.
Ratings and reviews
The absolute best. Many updates and photos and took great care of Tucker.
Ricky was amazing! He took the best care of my 11 week old puppy and gave him such a fun day! I received a bunch of photos/updates, super personable and easy to communicate with, and he definitely went above and beyond. Would 100% recommend!
Sosa enjoyed his time with Richard and came back looking great. I would definitely rebook with him in the future!
My dog was well taken care off he definitely had so much fun in Richard’s care. Rocky came back more obedient as well.

Schedule
Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feedings, and overnight stays. Whether it’s a quick drop-in visit or all-day care, I’m able to adjust my day around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. Your pet’s well-being is always a top priority, and I make sure they get the time, attention, and love they deserve.
