Safety, trust & environment

I am very patient and have no problem dealing with rowdy leash walkers. I’m also super attentive on walks to make sure your pup stays safe and doesn’t pick up anything. Your pet will be treated like my own while they are with me. I try to be as accommodating as possible.

Information Riley B. would like to know about your pet

Would you like to schedule a meet and greet beforehand? What’s your preferred method of communication? Does the pet have any special needs I should know about? (Dietary, medical, or behavioral) Do they get along with other animals? Do they like people/strangers? Are there any off limits places for walks or around your house?

A typical day

I love to hike some of the local trails (if you’re ok with your pup going on a field trip). I also enjoy going to the park to play fetch. I provide a variety of puzzle toys and treat filling toys to entertain them while we’re relaxing at home or during inclement weather. Additionally, my dog Silas is a wonderful play mate (supervised play ONLY).

Pet care experience

I'm a trustworthy professional with 17 years of petsitting experience. I worked at a pet store in my teens/early 20s as a pet care associate and dog trainer. I have gathered an expanse of pet related knowledge over the years in regards to nutrition and general day to day care. I’ve got a soft spot for seniors and experience with special needs pets who require medication. I enjoy photography so expect high quality photos of your pets while they’re in my care.

Riley took excellent care of our baby. From the moment we met her, our dog Hurricanes developed a fondness for her. Thank you, Riley, for the past few months. Your assistance has been invaluable. We will definitely reach out for future walks.

Riley was stellar as always. I wish I could give her 10 stars! Lola loves her to pieces and she gets the best pictures of her. I love to get the report when she visits. Riley is just amazing.
