It is helpful to know your dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and walking preferences. Please let me know about any fears, sensitivities, medical needs, or behavioral triggers. I appreciate clear instructions so

A typical day

A typical day includes calm walks, playtime suited to each dog’s energy level, and plenty of breaks. I focus on mental enrichment through sniffing walks, gentle games, and positive interaction. I always adjust activities based on the dog’s comfort, personality, and routine to keep them relaxed, safe, and happy.

Responsible College Student Who Lov

Pet care experience

I have completed Fear Free–related coursework and training, where I learned how to interact with pets in a calm, respectful, and low-stress way. I understand how to read basic pet body language and approach animals at their own comfort level. I focus on gentle handling, patience, and creating a safe, positive experience during walks and visits. I always follow owner's instructions carefully and prioritize each pet’s emotional and physical well-being.

Nice and caring my dog was overheating when I brought him cause it was so hot outside and Rijia was very gracious and welcoming and assured me he had things under control and sent me updates on my pup. He also sent me a video watching cartoons with my pup which was so funny. They had a fun time.
