Pet care experience

Your Dog’s New Favorite Human

I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was young, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have experience with energetic dogs, basic training, and keeping routines consistent so your pet stays happy and stress free

Rick is a responsible and caring person who genuinely loves working with animals. He takes great care of his three cats and two dogs every day, making sure they are fed, exercised, and well looked after. He also occasionally dog sits for friends or family, showing that others trust him to care for their pets. Rick is patient, dependable, and comfortable handling multiple animals, which makes him a strong candidate for any job involving animal care.

Ricky is a great pet owner and a wonderful dog sitter! He prides himself on knowing how to work with dogs of all types and is capable of training dogs! He is responsible and helpful when it comes to taking care of your furry loved one. I highly recommend!

I can’t recommend him highly enough as a dog sitter. He’s incredibly patient, attentive, and truly seems to have a natural connection with animals. From the moment he started caring for my dog, it was clear how much he genuinely loves what he does. What really stood out to me was how he went above and beyond—not only did he make sure my dog was well cared for and comfortable, but he also took the time to work on training. By the end, my dog had learned a few new tricks, which honestly amazed me! If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and genuinely great with animals, he’s the one you want. I trust him completely with my dog and would recommend him to anyone without hesitation.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment for every dog in my care. I do have friendly, well-socialized dogs of my own, so if your pet is comfortable around other dogs, they’ll have great companionship and supervised playtime. If your dog prefers space or requires separation, I can easily accommodate that and ensure they have a secure environment. I’m also comfortable following specific instructions, including crating if needed, to match your dog’s routine and your preferences.
