Safety, trust & environment

I will ensure the safety and care of the pet preferably in the client's home. I will walk, feed and play with the pets toys with them. Once they develop a strong bond with me, they can happily sit on my lap, receive pets, scritches and more. Should the family request for updates, I will send them pictures or text messages pertaining to the behaviour as well as ask any questions I have before I begin pet sitting along with in the process.

Information Riley E. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they are vaccinated, any allergies, dietary restrictions, medication protocols, social behaviours (do they get along with others?) and energy level. Also, please inform me of how many pets are in the home.

A typical day

For dogs, I will feed them, provide social time by taking them on walks to a dog park and around their neighborhood where they feel safe. In terms of dogs, I will play with their toys with them and ensure that they receive the right amount of love. For cats, each cat requires diverse types of attention and it is important to note that. Showing cats you love them by petting them or encouraging them to spend time with you are two ways to interact with them. Aside from engaging in play with their toys and offering them treats, I will happily let them watch Cat TV (if the owners or their family permits). Depending on the comfortability and if the owners allow, I will gladly bathe their pet as some pets do enjoy water.

Riley came over for a few drop in visits while I wasn’t available. She did an above and beyond job taking care of my dog providing a couple walks, feeding, and a lot of play time. The care she took of my dog was the care that I would want from anyone. She showed much evidence that she takes care of pets like they’re her own.

I can’t recommend Riley enough! She took such wonderful care of our cats while we went away for a weekend. From regular updates and adorable photos to her obvious genuine love for cats, I felt completely at ease knowing my cats were in such capable hands.
