Pet care experience
Hi! I'm not currently available for any jobs. In order to get out of school without amassing too much debt, I need to start going full time. I'm studying molecular biology, so studying for school takes up a significant amount of my time - too much to balance a full time commitment like dog sitting and walking! Hopefully in the future I'll return to Rover and will make lots more furry friends! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have yet to meet a dog I didn't fall madly in love with at first sight. I really understand dogs (better than people usually), and want your pet to be treated like the furry little person that they are. Does your dog need some personal space? No problem, we can sit and watch Netflix on the couch. Is your dog an insatiable attention hog? Also not a problem - they can lick my face for hours and then sleep on top of me if they want. I'd love it. Is your dog old or just kind of lazy? Great! We can chill at the park with a book and laze in the sun. Is your dog like an endless flow of lighting bolts shooting out of a Red Bull can on a rocket ship? That's cool too - we can go for a run or go nuts for hours at a dog park. So, no matter what your dogs energy level, health needs, or personality, I'll be sure that they get the care they need so they can forget all about how much they miss you.
Reviews
We
Rita was absoulutely fantastic! We scheduled Rita to walk our standard poodle for 11 days while we were away. She was reliable, sent pictures of Ludo on each walk, and most importantly, allowed us peace of mind on our trip. Rita is an excellant communicator, and was flexible and available when we added an extra day to our reservation. I would highly recommend Rita!
I booked Rita last minute to come check in on my two Pomeranians while my wife and I were at a wedding. She was super quick to respond, came by to grab the key that afternoon and met the dogs, then came and had a great checkin with the pups while I was at the wedding. Rita is awesome and really gave my wife and I some peace of mind. 10/10 would hire again.
Rita took great care of my dog while we were away. She stayed in communication and sent pictures which was comforting. Rita was also very flexible and accomadating with our schedule.

Information Rita C. would like to know about your pet
All breeds and mutts are equally amazing and lovable in my eyes! I love to play rough when they are up for it, so it would be good to know if your dog is nippy or not ok with roughhousing around. I would also want to know if your dog is into chewing stuff or getting in the trash so I can prepare accordingly.
A typical day
We can go for a walk to Irving Park and bark at squirrels together or run around the dog park if your dog can do off-leash. We might also play some tug o war, or hang out in the back yard after a walk. If the weather is bad, we can play keep away in the house, cuddle on the couch with a book, or bark at squirrels longingly out the window.
