Your Dog's Best Friend!
Pet care experience
Two things you have to know about me up front: I’m a relaxed, laid-back guy, and I have a lot of love to give. I love the great city of Philadelphia, where I invest much of my time as a volunteer for emergency services, a pet rescue, and other organizations throughout the city. I have a cat, who I love, but look forward to spending time with you pup!
Reviews
Ricky was on time, responsive, and took great care of Oliver. He sent us lots of photos and kept us updated regarding his schedule so we knew Ollie was in good hands. Already booking our next sitting with Ricky!
Ricky stayed at our apartment for a weekend to watch our dog Rambo while we were out of town. Things that Ricky did well: - Walked and fed Rambo at scheduled times - Frequent and timely communication - Plenty of photos were sent throughout the day - Arrived on time -Left our house untouched -Took out the trash Room for improvement: - A couple rules weren’t followed that we had communicated through messaging and through a dry erase board on the fridge. First one was not to wear any shoes inside the house and the other is to not allow Rambo on the bed. Some how Rambo was sick and on our bed which resulted in him throwing up on our covers. He did communicate this with me as soon as it happened. Overall, he was great with Rambo but could’ve been more attentive to some house rules.
Thanks so much Ricky, you have no idea how bad I want to regime the turtle for this very reason🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ Th and so much for taking care of them all
Ricky just spent the past 5 days taking care of our boy Waylo. Between the updates and pictures, we feel very comfortable with Ricky and know that Waylo is being provided with the best care and love!

Home
Information Ricky J. would like to know about your pet
Before a stay, I'm happy to set up a meet and greet up, but also like learning a bit more about your pup! Does your dog have any issues socializing with people or other dogs? What about a preferred schedule for taking walks? Lastly, does your dog have any other likes or dislikes?
A typical day
We’ll do what your dog likes to do! We can explore the city, visit dog parks to play with other dogs, go for long hikes, or hang out at home for cuddles. Of course, we’ll get in lots of potty breaks, lot of play, and lots of fun.

Animals are awesome, in my opinion. I have an adorable cat named Max, who is basically like a little old man. I’m happy to take care of every size and breed of dog. And if I got the chance, I’d gladly sit for any kind of animal, even a fish or rodent. I’m qualified to do double duty as a house-sitter and dog-sitter. I have work experience in housekeeping management to go along with my volunteer work at the pet rescue. All this means you can go out of town for an extended trip and return to a spotless house and a clean, happy dog. I’m located in University city neighborhood, just minutes from UPenn, Drexel University , Center City, and much more. I’m providing my services exclusively to residents in the city of Philadelphia. And there are so many things for a dog to do in Philadelphia! We can visit downtown, the waterfront, or one of our many dog parks. There are so many spaces where we can run, hike, and even chase squirrels! Your dog is in for an awesome time—hit me up today!
