When watching pets I believe it’s important to make sure they are entertained. I like to play tug of war, fetch and sometimes even chase!

Pet care experience

I have had multiple pets throughout my life. Pets are such loving animals and deserve some of the best care. I am here to help with that. Whether you just need someone to check up on them or someone to stay the night I am here for their needs and yours. Please don’t be afraid to ask me questions. I have a flexible schedule and would love to work with you. I am open to working with you to develop a plan that works best for you. Your needs are just as important as your pets. I have dealt with pets from all age groups and many different conditions. Good luck and I hope you find the sitter who is right for you. - Rio

Rio was reliable, communicative, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. She made sure Ruby and Cora got plenty of exercise, attention, and care, and she kept me updated regularly, which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Rio to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker. Ruby and Cora clearly adored her, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again.

Rio was very kind and understanding with Greta. I'm always gonna be grateful with her for being patient and taking care of her even though our dog is anxious.

Rio was so great watching my kitty while I was away! I would definitely book her again, 10/10.

Rio did such a great job with my cat! Even though he hid she made sure to come check on him and make sure he ate his food. Rio is a great and reliable pet sitter

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
