Attentive and enthusiastic care

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of cats practically all my life, and I personally own 4 cats now. I have 2 years experience sitting dogs prior to Rover, including sleeping over, four walks a day, and meals. I’ve also got experience giving medicine (droppers, powders, or pills) to both cats and dogs. I’ve sat or cared for cats and dogs with specialized meal plans and am really good at following specific directions.

Riss was great. Communicating clearly with us, kept our place tidy, and cared for our kitties. We will happily use Riss again in the future.

Riss did a fantastic job with our lab, Gordie! She communicated well and took great care of him. We appreciate all the training tips, as well. Gordie can't wait to see Riss again!

Safety, trust & environment

I am extremely cleanly and will make sure to take care of any messes. If sleeping over, I will make sure to tidy up before I leave. I will clean up after the pet meals. No problem with kitty litter cleaning. I will treat your home with utmost care and respect!

Information Riss B. would like to know about your pet

If your dog needs special care - such as particular training you’re working on, food, medicine, please let me know. I can absolutely meet those needs for you.

A typical day

There are great parks all over Chicago - one right by my house! I can totally play catch or tug-o-war or even practice tricks and training. I’d like to take them to the lakeside trail if owners are amenable! I also give lots of attention to any pets I’m sitting - treats (if allowed) and tons of cuddles!

Availability

I work full-time, but work from home often and have a really flexible schedule. I can usually work from anywhere, so I can easily care for your baby during weekdays as well as weekends! When working from home, I’m able and happy to provide meals and walks during the day between meetings. For my own cats I’m used to providing three meals a day and playing intermittently. I’ve watched animals that needed to go out every few hours and others that only needed a few times per day. I’m confident I can meet your pets needs!
