Points forts
Expérience en matière de services dédiés aux animaux de compagnie
Experienced with senior pups & meds
I’ve loved animals my entire life. From taking care of cattle on our ranch, to our first family dog when I was 7 years old. More than 30 years later, loving and caring for animals has been a consistent my entire life. I trained my own rescue pup and we shared 9 incredible years together. She went everywhere with me including the gym. I know what it’s like to have a four legged friend be the love of your life. I also volunteered with a local animal rescue and have done some unusual and complex care for unique animals (everything from treating fungus on a Harris’s hawk’s talons to bottle-feeding orphaned porcupines), and most recently helped my own dog through her senior years, including multiple daily medications and giving her a rich full life despite complex needs. That last part matters most for how I work: if your pet needs a strict medication schedule, has anxiety, or requires special handling, I take it seriously and follow instructions exactly. I’m not learning on the job, I’ve done it for a dog I love. I’m a reliable and a clear communicator. You’ll get updates, photos, and honesty, no surprises. Currently offering drop-in visits and walks in Missoula. All sizes and ages welcome, including seniors and pets with medical needs.
Qualifications
Sécurité, confiance et environnement
I’m a lifelong Missoulian with the kind of reputation where my neighbors have me hold on to their extra house keys. Trust and communication are incredibly important to me. For drop-in visits and walks, I follow your instructions exactly, feeding times, medication schedules, leash routines, and anything specific to your furry companion. I’m experienced administering medication that doesn’t require needles and comfortable with pets who need extra care or a calmer pace. I always double-check doors and gates are secure before leaving, and I send updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and cared for.
Notes et avis
Richelle is so good with our sweet, elderly dog. She is patient and loving with him, and takes great care when taking him for his walks. She is respectful of his boundaries, and has gained his utmost trust. Will never not recommend Richelle!
Richelle is the most caring and compassionate dog person and i've trusted her with my best friend (woof) for years. She's been kind and patient with my senior pup and she is always reliable, trustworthy, and I would recommend her to anyone! She's amazing!!
Richelle has watched 2 of my dogs over the years and watched our home. She would be an awesome person to watch your pet. She is a very reliable and trustworthy person to watch your pet.
Our treasured family pets came back to us, Happy, content and well cared for. We didn’t sense any anxiety or distress. We found Richelle meet all our pets needs (and all our guidelines: with feeding, playtime, walks, constraints). Our pets were eager to engage with Richelle on other occasions. Whether a drop of, pick up, our stay at our home. We were very Pleased with all aspects of our choice of pet sitter. Would highly recommend her.
Richelle is the most loving, attentive, capable caregiver. My dog is old, deaf, neurotic and can be difficult. She adores him and he can tell. He behaves really well for her and is always out of his mind excited when he sees her.

Dates de la garde
I’m currently remote and self-employed, which gives me a flexible, predictable schedule I can build client visits around. I’m available weekdays for drop-in visits and walks, and I build my work hours around your pet’s routine rather than the other way around. I check messages regularly and confirm visit times clearly in advance, so you always know exactly when I’ll arrive.
