Pet care experience

Friendly and flexible availability

I’m new to Rover, but I’ve been caring for dogs for years. I have two dachshunds that I take care of every day, including feeding, walking, bathing, brushing their teeth, and grooming. I’ve also helped take care of many of my friend’s small dogs when needed. I’m very comfortable with small dogs and understand their personalities, especially when they’re energetic or a little stubborn. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure dogs feel safe and comfortable. I genuinely love being around dogs and spending time with them.

Safety, trust & environment

I focus on making pets feel comfortable in their own home. I offer drop-in visits where I’ll feed them, take them outside, play with them, and keep them company. I’m experienced with small dogs and can handle things like putting on harnesses, cleaning up accidents, and helping them feel calm and safe. I pay attention to each dog’s needs and follow the owner’s instructions closely. For walks, I’m mindful of weather conditions and will always prioritize your dog’s safety, especially in hot weather.

Riley provides ongoing weekly services to my two Dachshunds that include briefly taking them into the yard for a potty break and tossing around their squeaky toys with them. Riley is consistently on time and stays for the full duration. She is calm and friendly with the dogs. They are always happy to see her and usually want to play with her. It is my observation from the ongoing feedback Riley provides via text and pictures that she enjoys working with animals very much! I recommend Riley because she is responsible and professional.

Riley has been taking care of my baby Benito for the past two weeks. Although Benito is a little rascal, Riley is patient with him and loving. I highly recommend, Riley!

Riley is the best! She’s so caring and really takes care of my pups like I would. Very reliable & responds quickly each time I’ve needed her. I don’t know what I would’ve done without her! ME & THE PUPS THANK YOU RILEY ✨

Today was a test day to see how my dog would react to Riley. He is old and very much afraid of new people. I’m happy to say things went marlviously. They got along and he enjoyed her company. I got pictures throughout her stay and they were appreciated. I highly recommend Riley.

Schedule

Pet care is already part of my daily routine. I take care of my own dogs every day, including walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m currently in online school, so I have a flexible schedule and can be available most weekdays and weekends.
