Experienced WFH pup lover!
Pet care experience
I've owned several dogs since childhood and house/dog sat for over 15 years. Anytime a neighbor, friend, or family member needs their pups walked, fed, etc. They know they can depend on me to give their dogs the best love and care they need! *Note: 5% of all proceeds from pet care will be donated to the ASPCA.*
Reviews
Richard took care of my pup for a weekend and was great. He gave more than plenty of updates and was super accommodating with doggy bowls and flexible with drop off times as well.
Richard was fantastic! Our dog Sophie spent 7 days with him and Richard sent us numerous photos and videos and updates on her. She got lots of attention (and walks, belly rubs and playing fetch) since Richard works from home. Richard is so great with dogs and very responsible…highly recommend him!
Richard was such a great sitter! He was so kind and loving to my puppy boy! He was very caring and even took my boy on a hike. You can tell he loves animals and treats them like his own. I’m very appreciative to him and would have him sit again. Thank you again Richard!!
Richard was an awesome sitter. My pup was spoiled! Richard spent a lot of time with him. I received many videos and updates so I was always aware of what my pet was being watched. I will use Richard again!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
If I'm pet sitting in my own home, I treat all pups as if they were mine. They are allowed on the couch, bed, the office chair (when I'm working and they want to sit on my lap), etc. So they'll have free roam of the house. Our home is very pet friendly, with no cables or wires visible or reachable as they are all within the walls or hidden behind covers. If I'm pet sitting at the client's home, I respect their belongings and make sure to follow all rules. I keep careful watch over the pups to ensure they're not getting into anything they shouldn't, and take them on timely walks and play sessions.

Information Richard M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any special needs or dietary needs for your pet in advance. I can help prepare any specific items for you as well, if you'd like.
A typical day
I love to provide lots of physical and mental stimulation to dogs I watch. We would play fetch, tug of war, go for lots of walks and let them explore the environment. There are several regional parks in the area, and the community I live in has over 30 acres of walkable grass areas so it's easy to go for an adventure.

Availability
I work from home, so pet care can be the top of the priority list when it comes to needing walks, potty breaks, play time, meal time, etc. I can give the highest level of care to your pup to ensure they get the love and attention they deserve.
