Max seemed to really enjoy his stay with Riley, who was communicative and sent loads of pictures during their sleepover!

Riley is one of few the people I trust to take care of my dog Odessa. She's a shy, aloof dog who takes a while to warm up to people, but Riley's calm, easygoing energy puts her at ease. You can tell he genuinely understands dogs as he doesn't force affection, which is exactly how you win her over. Whether it's a fun park walk or over night stays, she comes back home super happy and content. Most of all, I see how much my dog loves him and that's all that matters, he definitely has a natural affinity with dogs/ animals!

Riley the sweetest dog sitter ever!! You can really see how much he cares for our pup Madonna. He sent me photos and updates over the weekend. Madonna came back and immediately fell asleep which is always a great sign. Will definitely be using Riley again next time. Thank you Riley!! xx

Riley is an exceptional human that all dogs love! My dog Vivienne always came back from puppy sitting happy and sad that Riley left! Riley started looking after Vivienne when she was a puppy, and I always trust him to take the best care of her. Couldn’t recommend more!

Riley has looked after my Maltese X Chihuahua, Miffy, on multiple occasions. Riley is the kindest pet sitter I’ve ever used. He is so kind and quick to respond to texts etc. Very due diligent and respectful, which always keeps my mind at peace when I’m away from her! You can tell he is a genuine and passionate animal lover who prioritises your pet’s wellbeing and happiness always ❤️ couldn’t recommend enough!

Riley looked after our 11 year old senior Spoodle when we were travelling overseas recently. Having Roxy in capable hands with her age related medical conditions gave us peace of mind so we could enjoy our holiday. Roxy was on various medications and Riley was very attentive to Roxy’s additional needs. I would have no hesitation in recommending Riley as a pet sitter for your fur baby, the communication was handled very well and I could check in at any time in Roxy’s well being and it was never an issue . Thanks again Riley for looking after my best friend Roxy, I know she is looking forward to spending time with you again soon!

Schedule

Working from home means I’m always around to keep your dog comfortable, whether that’s mealtimes, walks, or just curling up together on the couch. I live near several parks and love nothing more than a good walk (or multiple) followed by a relaxed evening in.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety is my top priority. My home is secure, comfortable, and set up to keep dogs relaxed, with space to relax or play. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay, so you always know how they’re doing. You can trust that your dog will be treated with the same care and attention I’d want for my own.

A typical day

Your dog will settle right in and enjoy a relaxed, fun day with plenty of love and attention. We start the morning with a nice walk on the common - perfect for sniffing, exploring, and stretching those legs. Throughout the day, we’ll take regular outside breaks nearby for fresh air, playtime, and toilet trips. Depending on your dog’s energy levels and routine, we usually go for two walks a day (or as many as they need!). We’re lucky to have some brilliant green spaces close by - Tooting Common, Clapham Common, and Brockwell Park - so there’s always a favourite spot with lots of room to wander and meet other friendly dogs. When we’re back home, it’s all about comfort. There’s plenty of chill time on the sofa, cosy naps, and cuddles. We like to keep things calm and homely, so your dog feels part of the family. Whether it’s a play session out and about, a quiet snooze, or another adventure on the common, your dog will get all the care and attention they deserve while staying with us.

It's really helpful to know if your pet has any medical conditions, needs medication, or has specific routines. I'd also like to know about their behaviour - for example, how they get along with other dogs, if they have any fears, or special quirks. This way, I can make sure they're safe, happy, and cared for exactly the way they need.
