Dog Walker - Flexible Schedule

Pet care experience

When I was growing up we had dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, rabbits and even two monkeys. But out of all of the animals I've cared for I must say, dogs are my favorite. I've watched a few of my family and friends pets and have been known to teach an old dog new tricks. If you're looking for a confident, experienced and fun pet sitter, you've found her! When your dog stays with me, they'll get to enjoy my cozy apartment and the friendship of my awesome dog Buddy. Buddy loves other dogs, snuggling and performing tricks. I have a flexible schedule and can spend a lot of time giving your pup attention. Some dogs get very nervous in new surroundings, so I will hold them till they are comfortable or distract to make them feel at ease. I have an outdoor patio if they would like to be outside in the day. I'm so excited to meet you and your dog!

Rita was so wonderful with Theo. Did everything possible to make him comfy!!! She is such a loving person I could see he would be happy and he was. I love all the photos I received. Theo even slept in her bedroom. Was great and loving care!!!

Safety, trust & environment

As a dog owner myself, I will always ensure your pets safety. My family really enjoys pets, so your pet will be treated as a member of our family. Let's talk about your pets exercise routine, meal schedules and any other special requests you may need for your pet. At the beginning of caring for any pet, I want to make sure they feel comfortable so may probably be on extended walks, if weather permits and most likely extra treats. Can't wait to meet your fur baby.

Information Rita A. would like to know about your pet

I want to know as much about your dog as possible before the stay begins. Do they get along with dogs? How do they react to children or other people who are in the area of our complex? Do they have any special needs that I would need to know about? Do they have any allergies? Anything that you think is important, I want to know so I can provide the best care for your pet.

A typical day

We live in a large complex so we can walk around our complex as well as different sitting areas just to relax. We have a lot of dogs at our complex for fun and lots of running at the gated dog park on the property.

I am a stay at home mom and our family has a flexible schedule. Our flexible schedule will allow for us to be attentive to your pet so they will feel comfortable in a new environment. We have a senior dog in our home and he is very calm and relaxed, other animals usually will follow my dogs lead.
