Does your dog want to hang out?

Pet care experience

Hi there! A little bit about me: I am a very active individual so I love taking walks or going to the park. When I’m not working, I spend a lot of time at home so your pet won’t be alone for extended periods of time! My family dog is 12 and had spinal surgery a few years ago so I have cared for an almost paralyzed dog for a while now. I love to play and snuggle and interact with dogs so that they have company and receive so much love and attention! I grew up with 5 dogs (large) and have always had a dog and I am the go-to dog sitter in my circle of family and friends! I love all sizes of dogs and I am not intimidated by any breed whatsoever so all are welcome!

Riley is amazing with dogs. Whenever our dog starts to get her scent as she is walking into the house, his tail immediately starts to wag with excitement. She is gentle and attentive to all dogs that I have seen her interact with. Riley is definitely the number one person I would ask to care for my dog.

Riley has watched our dog for several years. She is responsible, sensitive, caring, and treated our dog like it was her own child. I highly recommend Riley to anyone.

Riley would be a great candidate for a dog sitter . I have a 6 year old lab mix that is very ski dish around really anyone and she is probably one of his best friends and very comfortable around her . She is very loving towards any animal but dogs especially . Any dog owner would be lucky to have her as a sitter !!

Safety, trust & environment

My dog lives with his “grandparents” since they are retired to keep them company so there are no other pets in the house. There are multiple doors and parking lot access so we are not on the main road. Anytime we go outside your dog will be leashed and if they don’t do well with other people or dogs, we will make sure to stay away from the more populated areas so they are comfortable. I keep the apartment at a comfortable temperature depending on the season so they won’t be too hot or cold. I have lots of windows so that they can keep an eye out on everything outside, but I can also close the shades if you’d prefer! I am happy to administer medicine if they need it or help with any dietary restrictions. I’m never opposed to having a dog snuggle up in bed with me, but if you prefer them to stay off the furniture, I have dog beds to make them feel right at home! I am extremely flexible so please just let me know your needs and I will be happy to do whatever you need!

A typical day

I live downtown in Saratoga so there are a few trails close by as well as the side streets in town or over near The racetrack as well as downtown (if they are comfortable!) as well as the dog park, Congress park and the State Park! I love to take dogs on car rides or to get ice cream (with mom and dad’s permission of course!) as well as play around the house, take naps and enjoy each other’s company :)

Availability

I work at a school 10 months of the year so my days are short and I am not gone from home long. I am up early so I can spend time with a pet before I work and I am home by 3:30. I live in town so there are plenty of streets and parks to sniff out within walking distance. I workout daily so if you have an active pet, I’d love to exercise them with me when I run. On weekends I do things very locally so I am never more than 10 minutes away and I am either home all the time or a majority of the day so they will have company 90% of the time!
