I won’t be able to care for your fur babies in my home out of respect for my own pup’s anxieties, BUT I would love to come to you for day visits and walks! They’ll get the best of both worlds with me- familiarity in their own space and exploring new smells in our walks around town.

Information Riley K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, which could include medications, specific mealtime procedures, methods of meeting new people, or their favorite snack! I want to ensure we have a good first meeting, so please share a bit about how they interact with new people so I can accommodate and make a good first impression 😊

A typical day

Happy to customize all activities to your pets’ activity level- whether it’s a walk and cuddles or fetch and tricks, I’m happy to do whatever they need!

Pet care experience

Years of owning and sitting for dogs has made me very attuned to their needs and emotions. I’ve had a lot of experience with animals of differing needs: senior dogs requiring multiple rounds of meds each day, puppies needing some structure through learning new tricks, and anxious ones who need more mental stimulation than others. On top of the more technical work of owning/taking care of a pet, I also pride myself on understanding them to ensure I provide the right kind of love and care. Some dogs want to come right up to someone new and get all the pets, while others need to smell and become familiar with a person first. I look forward to meeting you and providing the care your pet needs!

Riley is great! It was clear from our m&g that she had dog experience and was able to control my wild child pups obedience. Both pups got a much needed break outside!

Riley is an absolutely amazing pet mom/caregiver. She has always gotten along with animals she meets, and it is clear they trust her right away. As a pet mom herself, Riley has displayed immense responsibility by teaching her dog (who was very uneasy of strangers at the time she was adopted) to be a sociable and sweet dog. Having seen firsthand how she helped her dog to overcome her distrust for new people, I can say without a doubt that I would trust Riley with my pets and would highly recommend her to anyone with a pet! She has the love, care, and patience to walk any type of dog, big or small!

We highly recommend Riley, she is an incredibly trustworthy, kind, and caring person. She did an amazing job with our dogs and cats, bonding with them immediately. She also took care of the mail and watered our plants while we were away. It was such a huge relief knowing our fur babies and our home were in good hands with Riley. We couldn't have asked for better care!
