House Sitting • juin 08, 2026

Ricky was fantastic. Walked Maggie very well, kept the house tidy during our time away, provided regular updates, and was extremely professional. Would highly recommend.

The boys loved Ricky! He constantly kept me updated with photos of them during their potty breaks and hanging out around the house. Ricky was very attentive and gave the boys lots of love and cuddles. When I got back from vacation boys were acting as if they had just gotten back from vacation as well. House was left just as I left it. Will be booking Ricky for future vacations!

Ricky was great with our pets. Usually my dog is super anxious when we’re gone and can even work himself into getting sick. But in all of the pics Ricky sent he looked so happy and was doing excellent when we got home. It is such a relief to know he’s well taken care of.

Ricky was so nice to Hegel and listened to all of my concerns. He’s friendly, trustworthy, and really enjoys being around dogs! He’ll be my go-to moving forward!

Ricky took care of my 4 year old lab and my dog did not want to leave! Harley had an awesome time. He sent me pictures throughout the day of when he went on walks and gave me updates on how Harley was doing. He was very professional and took great care of my dog. Would definitely recommend him as a sitter to others!

I am very patient and great at understanding pets needs. I would ensure they are comfortable with me in their space and send my clients frequent check ins throughout the day.
