Pet care experience

Dependable, Professional & Caring.

I believe taking care of your fur baby is MUCH more than" I love dogs", it's understanding the breed (s) the dog and the parent's needs. My goal is to put you and your pet, at ease. I've worked with an animal rescue organization for four years and received the needed dog training. I find great joy getting to know your pet and discovering their individual needs and strengths.

Bunny has SUCH a wonderful stay with Rita. It was my first time boarding her and I felt completely at ease with all of the photos and videos that Rita would send each day. She clearly takes such fantastic care of all the dogs in her home, and the beautiful backyard was perfect for Bunny to play and run around in. I'll absolutely be bringing her back for future trips. Thank you, Rita!!

My dogs had a blast at Rita’s house! They enjoyed her treats and running around her yard. Rita was very attentive and kept us updated with frequent pictures and videos during their stay. She was extremely accommodating for my dog’s needs.

Rita was professional, communicative, and clearly knows what she's doing. Most importantly she LOVES Dogs and knows how to care for them. She has an amazing space for them to run, sniff, play, and lay in her huge yard. She was so amazing to work with as well and accommodating of my crazy travel schedule. I'm super grateful I met her and so was my boy Axel. I can tell he had a blast with Rita and probably wishes he could go back every week.

Rita is an amazing dog sitter. She gave my dog so much love and attention. I was sent updates, photos, and videos of my puppy. When you leave your baby with Rita, they will be safe and happy. I 100% recommend booking with Rita.
