Highlights
Pet care experience
Full-Time WFH Dog Lover 🐾
I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up with them my whole life. I’ve raised my own pup since he was just 8 weeks old, so I understand the attention, patience, and love dogs need at every stage.

Ratings and reviews
Rikiya was very kind and friendly. Our Golden loved him.
Rikiya took excellent care of our two pugs while we were traveling! He made sure all of their needs were met and even administered medicated eye drops and nose wipes to keep them healthy! We especially appreciate the care and affection he showed towards them. I would highly recommend Rikiya for your future Rover needs and I look forward to working with him again!
Rikiya was so awesome with my dog! He definitely isn’t the easiest to walk and they were able to complete all their walks with zero issues. Rikiya also was proactive and came to meet my dog prior to walking to get to know him and all his little quirks. I will definitely be using him again!
Rikiya was amazing! Texted and sent photos everyday on Bishops day. Always kept me in the loop on Bishops day. Will be requesting Rikiya to dog sit Bishop in the future!
Rikiya took my dogs for two walks during the day and was great at keeping me apprised and updated on how my dog was doing. Gave me feedback on eating and potty break.
I couldn’t be happier with the care Simba received again . From the first day, it was clear how loving and attentive Rikiya is. Communication was excellent, and Simba felt comfortable and happy. I will definitely be coming back and recommending to friends and family.

Schedule
I work fully remote with a flexible schedule, so I’m home most of the day and can easily plan around your dog’s needs. Morning and evening walks are part of my routine, but I can adjust to match your dog’s usual schedule. Whether your pup needs extra walks, playtime, or quiet downtime, I’m here to make sure they get the care and attention they deserve.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I live in a secure townhouse in a quiet neighborhood, and all walks take place on leash in safe areas or nearby parks. I supervise your dog at all times while they’re in my care, whether we’re playing, walking, or relaxing at home.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day with me is filled with plenty of playtime, walks, and attention. Since I work from home, your dog will never be left alone for long and will get lots of love throughout the day. We’ll start the morning with a nice walk around the neighborhood or one of the nearby parks, followed by breakfast and some quiet time while I work. Throughout the day, I take breaks to give your pup cuddles, play fetch, or go on another walk to stretch our legs. In the evening, we’ll head out for a longer stroll and some relaxation before bedtime. Whether your dog loves adventures or prefers to nap by my side, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for every moment they’re with me.
