Pet care experience

Your fur-baby is in good hands!

​Hi there! I’ve been a pet lover my whole life and a pet mom and auntie for over 7 years. Because I know what it’s like to leave my own pets behind when going out of town, I treat every dog and cat I sit for with the same love, patience, and high standard of care I’d want for my own. ​Whether your dog needs extra time on walks to burn off energy, or your cat prefers a cozy environment with gentle affection, I’m here to make sure their routine stays seamless and stress-free. ​I pride myself on clear, constant communication, so you can expect plenty of photo updates throughout the day. You shouldn’t have to worry while you’re away—I’ll ensure they are well-fed, hydrated, exercised, and showered with attention. Let me know what your pet needs, and I’ll be happy to accommodate!

Riley is a kind person who happens to be an excellent pet sitter. She was always communicative, timely and my cats loved her. Thank you for all your help.

Riley is always an outstanding dog sitter. She’s clean, she’s communicative about details even I forget and my dog is always seemingly better when I get back than when I left. I love love love having her watch Winston.

This is the second time Riley has watched Winston for me outside of walking him and she has consistently gone above and beyond for me. She is communicative about any challenges and always patient with my busy schedule, not to mention wonderful to Winston. I highly recommend her for walks or stays!

I would want to know if your dog is good with other animals. If I should steer clear of other dogs or animals, or if they have any special needs. I do not have a breed preference- all dogs are welcome!
