Artist Needing Fluffy Inspiration

I raised my late black-lab Akita mix from a puppy to 15 years old. I also cared for my late mother's 15+ dog until his passing. As an artist and streamer I am home nearly 24/7 and miss having a dog around for company but I'm not ready to own my own again after my old girl. I'd love to earn some money while caring for other pets who could use a little vacation. I will happily also sketch your pupper!

Risa seemed very caring but did unfortunately oversleep and therefore failed to get my dog out for a walk. This meant I had to take my dog on a long walk after picking him up later in the day in the blistering heat.

Risa is an amazing sitter! This is my second time booking with them and I was so glad they were available.They were great with my senior pup and I will be rebooking again. They are very communicative and I appreciate their attention to detail. 👍👍

Risa was amazing! She took great care of my 6 year old French bulldog, and she was kind, communicative, and thorough. I appreciated the care she displayed before, during, and after the visit. Also, the picture she drew of him is awesome and just shows how much she really enjoys dogs. I’d absolutely recommend using Risa for your dog needs!

Doggy Day Care • Oct 08, 2025

Risa really helped us out when I was out of town and we didn’t want to leave our newly adopted dog at home alone all day while my husband was at work. Risa was very responsive and communicative about how our dog was doing at her house. She is a natural animal lover who provides conscientious and kind care.

This was my first time leaving my doggy with anyone else and she loved risa she didn’t even want to leave her house. Risa updated me throughout the day and even gave me a sketch of her which I thought was super sweet! Thank you risa for sharing your lovely home with our fur babies!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a quiet home (although occaesionally my roommate does practice on his drums/guitar but his room is separate enough) and I will be available all day for your pet's need. They'll be able to stay in my office, kitchen, or bedroom and have AC and Heating depending on season. They'll have access to leashed walks frequently. Water always and their food/treats according to your schedule and supply.

A typical day

I'm mostly at home working (I'm an artist, writer, and online content creator) but I take breaks frequently for my furry clients. We'll have the option for a morning walk up and down the block but nighttime potty-breaks will always be in my yard.
