Cheerful and caring sitter.
Pet care experience
I’ve lived my whole life with dogs, cats, and various animals until now. I have experience with German Shepards, pitbulls, chows, western terriers, Boston terriers, and a few rescue dogs. I also grew up with cats and have helped train the animals. Helping to take care of them were my chores growing up. This experience has given me the intuition and insight to care for them and read the animal’s behavior and personality. I am a fit male that can exercise with the animals and go for long walks and runs. I live close to many parks and love taking the dogs there for a nice walk.
Reviews
Ricky provided updates and made sure we knew how well Eric was doing during his stay! When I picked up Eric, he was glad to see us but kept looking for where Ricky went, which I take as a great sign- Eric had decided Ricky was one of his favorite people! We will definitely be booking Eric another stay next time we need to go out of town!
Ricky was amazing with our senior dog. He was patient, communicative with us and very sweet with our nervous girl. I highly recommend!
Ricky was a great dogsitter and took really good care of my dog! My dog really liked him right away, and Ricky was really good with taking him on long walks which my dog loved. I'd definitely trust him with my dog the next time I need a dogsitter!
Ricky provided a fantastic stay for our pup for the weekend! He has great communication and offered a meet and greet in advance to make sure it would be a good fit. He is knowledgeable about dog behavior and knew what to look for and how to be careful with our reactive dog on walks. We got lots of great pictures and updates so we could relax during our trip knowing our pup was in a nice, clean, comfortable place to stay!

Safety, trust & environment
I live in the upstairs unit of a house. I currently don’t have any animals in my apt which is why I’m doing this. I take care of the animals by playing with them and giving them the time and attention that they need. Being able to read their body language is always important, especially while out on walks. I love the outdoors and take the animals out for walks often.

Play time and time outdoors is always a must with animals. There are plenty of parks close to my home for longer strolls and outdoor stimulus.
