Availability
I work from home often. I am very attentive, have a lot of availability, and promise your pet a loving home away from home. Your pet is welcome on the furniture and I don’t believe in caging pets, so it will roam free.

Before the stay, I kindly ask owners to provide clear instructions and a brief background on their pet’s personality, needs, routines, and any special care required. This helps ensure a tailored approach that meets your pets specific needs and your expectations.
A typical day
I provide loving care for your pet through daily activities such as walks, playtime, feeding, and giving them attention and affection. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy at all times. I also know how to properly bathe dogs, keeping them clean and relaxed while respecting their needs.

Reviews
Richard was amazing with my dog Love. We received adorable daily photos which kept us at ease while we were away! He also sent multiple updates throughout the day and was super fast to respond. I’ll definitely be booking with them anytime I’m away in the future : )
I’ve known Richard for a long time and can confidently say he is one of the most responsible, caring, and trustworthy people I know—especially when it comes to animals. He has extensive hands-on experience as a dog sitter and groomer, and it truly shows in the way dogs respond to him: calm, happy, and comfortable in his care. Richard is attentive to each dog’s individual needs, routines, and temperament. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding schedules, grooming, or administering basic care, he approaches everything with professionalism and genuine care. He is extremely reliable, detail-oriented, and always communicates clearly, which provides complete peace of mind when leaving a pet in his care. Beyond his technical skills, what truly sets Richard apart is his genuine love for animals. He treats every dog as if it were his own, creating a safe, clean, and loving environment. I would not hesitate to trust him with any pet, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate dog sitter and groomer.
