Let me take care of your fur babies

Pet care experience

I've had and taken care of a wide variety of pets since I was little. Crrently I don't have any fur babies of my own, but I've owned a Guinea Pig, and various breeds of goldfish and Bettas. I've also helped my younger brother take care of his hamsters, and I've had friends and family leave me in care of parakeets, a rabbit, and a dog that has been part of the family from the time she was young up into her senior care today. I enjoy spoiling pets with treats (usually fresh fruit and veggies), and I have experience dealing with separation anxiety, medication management, as well as any dietary supplements. Another thing to note is that I will always abide by dietary restrictions, and being that I'm so attentive, I'll always communicate if I detect something going on with your babies that we haven't previously discussed. I enjoy cheerful banter with furries and featheries of all kinds and will regularly send photos and video. I will also read to them nightly, so if you have any materials feel free to pack it for your pup's stay! Also, feel free to discuss with me anything you think is important such as; any triggers or behaviors, if they are higher/lower energy, or afraid of any specific sounds, this way I can properly keep your babies safe and happy!

Rickyia was amazing to my Soto boy. She was sure to update me everyday about how Soto was doing and sent pictures as well. I will definitely be using Rickyia again, Soto loved her!

Rickyia was awesome with Yoda! She updated us throughout his stay about when he ate, went potty, and went for walks. I would definitely use her again

I had the pleasure of having Rickyia take care of my fur baby, and I couldn't be happier with her services! Not only did Rickyia show great attention to detail in following all of my instructions, but her compassion towards my dog was truly heartwarming. Rickyia went above and beyond to ensure my pet felt comfortable and loved during the stay, providing regular updates and even sending adorable photos. I highly recommend Rickyia to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter!
