Your pet isn't just another appointment on my calendar—they're a priority. I intentionally schedule my day to give each pet the time, patience, and attention they deserve, whether that's an energetic walk, a play session, cuddle time, or simply sticking to their normal routine. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind. You'll receive thoughtful updates and plenty of photos after every visit, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and in caring hands. A little note for my wonderful repeat clients: Once you’re comfortable, I’m happy to offer convenient off-app payment options like Zelle, CashApp, Venmo, and Apple Pay. Looking forward to taking care of your pets!

I’m originally from NYC but moved to the Albany area six years ago to be closer to my family.

But as of right now, I’m a Real Estate Salesperson! When I'm not busy with pets or work, I love hitting the gym, diving into a good book, exploring new restaurants, and enjoying quality time with my family and furry pals.
Reviews

Thanks Richelle for taken care of Pucho on short notice.

Richelle has been a pleasure to work with!! I used her for basically the entire month of April and didn't have a single issue. My dog, Stone, loves her. Will definitely be booking again in the future!

Richelle is great; friendly, caring, comfortable. We did a meet and greet in her home so Dexter and I could met her and her two adorable dogs. That was very comforting for me since this is my first time using Rover. When Richelle came to get Dexter a few days later he ran to her and practically crawled into her lap, obviously he remembered her and felt comfortable being with her. I'm glad I found her and I would highly recommend her.

Richelle was amazing! She took such good care of our little Mochi. We will definitely be booking with her again when we need a dog sitter.
