Pet care experience

Flexible Reliable & Available!

Conshy resident ready to love your pets! I seek to treat your animal like family. I have been pet and housesitting since I was a kid. I am a pastor with Fridays off so I find petsitting works perfect for my weekend schedule! I am happy to provide walking service for your pet in evenings, mornings and late afternoon. I’m very flexible and open to helping you out. My apartment is set up so that my cat is able to be separated from your dog during his/her stay for doggy day care. Please message me and we will work out details— I am willing to talk further about what kinds of needs you have for your pets!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I live on the fourth floor apartment and I own a cat. The apartment has a big field next to it and there are plenty of walking trails around me. I like to provide doggy daycare rather than boarding because I feel like this is not a great long-term option for pet care. When your dog does come for a doggy daycare I stay in my apartment the whole time and give your pet a luxury experience (lots of belly rubs, attention, cuddles). I have found that housesitting and drop-ins are best for me because the animals are less stressed/anxious. I think it is important to keep their environment consistent since the owners they love will be gone so I try to remain as flexible as possible for you. I understand though that owners might need doggy day care regardless, so I am happy to accommodate!

Ridgley was absolutely amazing! We are so grateful for her. She was incredibly communicative, kind, and took the best care of our sweet Navy. I would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much for everything!

Ridgley stopped by to take out my dog Benny and give him his dinner! He is a bit nervous, but warmed up immediately and loved his time with Ridgley! They played in the yard and he had a great time! I would absolutely recommend Ridgley to anyone looking!

Ridgley recently watched my dog for me while I was out of town for the weekend and took great care of my pup! She had great communication and provided an update every time she walked her.

Schedule

I work from 9 to 430 during the day, with a flexible lunch hour. This enables me to take your pup on mid day or early evening walks. My work schedule is flexible so I am able to be accommodating if need be. I find that housesitting works great for me because I can work remotely in the afternoons from your home and many clients like this because it means that their animals have company during the day as well. I have Fridays off and work Sunday mornings, so I am able to provide a full weekend caring for your pets!

See Above! I like to know what scares them, what you all have worked to train or overcome with them, information about their eating habits/digestion, what they love most, how to win them over (haha) and other important items. I once cared for a blind diabetic geriatric dog and it was very important for the owner to share what the warning signs were vs regular quirks. An owner should never feel like they are providing “too much” information—I love a good pet care short story from the owners! This helps me care for your pets without bothering you about those things.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
