Highlights
Pet care experience
🐾 Love dogs, work from home 100%
I work from home 100% of the time which means I will pay extra attention to your precious pup and provide excellent care. Usually the dogs I watch end up cuddled up beside me while I’m working or on the couch. I have a fenced in backyard, and I live close to a great trail system that I will take your dog for walks on, away from cars. I take pet care very seriously, and I will update you with photos and videos so you can feel safe and secure that your dog is good hands while you’re away. I have a lot of experience training puppies and watching dogs young and old. I also have a great deal of experience caring for pregnant dogs. I have a very well-behaved and gentle Pomeranian mix named Oreo that I raised from birth.

Ratings and reviews
My little fur baby was away at doggie camp with Richard who was loving and caring to him. And he also provided those lovely photos to keep you updated. I really appreciated that. 5 stars for Richard and the care he provides!!!
We had to leave Simba with Richard for a long duration of 21 days. We’re a bit worried as Simba was never away from us for more than a week in past. However we were amazed to see how quickly Simba formed a bond with Richard and Oreo ( Richard’s pet) during the meet and greet session. Richard is an amazing dog lover. He sent us regular updates and pictures of Simba without us having to remind him. Simba was really happy with him and had a great time. Richard also made him try Christmas clothes.. lol. When we went to pick up Simba, Richard had neatly packed all his stuff so we didn’t have to worry. It was very sweet of him and his partner to have knitted a woollen winter beanie for Simba that he absolutely loved. We as parents are glad that Simba stayed with Richard while we were on vacation. Definitely going to Richard for repeat as long as he’s available. Thanks again!
Nitro had a great time with Richard and enjoyed being with other dogs during his week there. I got regular updates and pics which gave me peace of mind he was well cared for. I would definitely use Richard again when going away.
Richard, besides just being a good person, was dependable. He took special care of my little dog and sent lots of pictures. I would definitely recommend him.
Richard was phenomenal. He made our sweet Amelia feel so at home. She found a new best friend the few days she stayed!! Richard was an excellent communicator and sent pictures of her as well. I highly recommend him!
We were a bit nervous leaving our 3.5 month old pup for a couple days but she was perfectly happy and so well cared for! I would 100% recommend Richard, he took time with our puppy and sent pics to let us know she was doing great. She had snuggles and outside time and even got to play with the dog he owns. It was very stress relieving to leave our pup with Richard, knowing she was being well cared for!
