Pet care experience

Hey pet parents! My name is Rikki and I provide in-home pet sitting and farm care services ! I have experience with dogs,cats, horses,chickens and other livestock. My overnight stays are 12-hour increments. Or - 6 pm to 8 am. House sitting:12/14 hours overnight.( 6/7 pm to 7/8 am) I Drop in visits: For half hr , I let out to potty, feed, water and provide a little play time, brushing or petting. For 1 hr, I include the above but can include a walk as well. If you have multiple pets this time works best Please ask about farm care rates. I also work as a dog groomer, with over 10 years experience .If you're in need of a dog grooming service I can provide that inside your home . I take meticulous care of your home while I am there and clean up everything leaving it t exactly as I found it . While I'm at your home additional services I offer are; checking mail, take out the garbage and watering plants I will give your pets lots of love and attention while you're away and send text messages and photos during the day to let you know how they are doing.

Rikki was fantastic with our boys! She sent pictures and they were both so relaxed when we got home. Would definitely recommend Rikki to take care of your fur babies and will use her again!

Rikki took very good care of our pups. We were able to have a great trip and not have to worry about them.

She was great with my dog Dexter! Any body would be lucky to have her as a sitter.

Information Rikki H. would like to know about your pet

Once the stay is booked and the pet parents are ready to leave I just ask that you leave a detailed list of you're for pets/horses schedule. What's the morning routine, what time is feeding? I need two contact numbers. I need instructions on what to do in case of an emergency. I need to know who is allowed in the house while you're away.

A typical day

If your fur babies are active with a lot of energy and are used to going on daily walks I can include a walk during the day or we could also take a trip to the dog park and spend half an hour or hour walking, jogging or playing. If I take your dog to the dog park or walk just please make sure that the dogs are current on all of their vaccinations.

While I am there I would be happy to take them for walks or dedicate certain periods for specifically exercise time during the day. Lots of cuddling , play time or treats!! I like to keep them on their regular normal schedule and routine as much as possible. I send updates throughout the day and can be reached to through my cell phone.
