Lots of doggy playtime!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’ve been looking after dogs for over 10 years and I currently have a small Yorkie poodle mix for almost 3 years. She’s super playful and grew up around all types of dogs that I’ve dog sat over the years so she’ll be great company for your dog! I also live in a very safe community with a lot of dogs so we like to take multiple dog walks throughout the day and we also have a large group of dogs that get together to play everyday if your dog is open to it! Let me know your preferences and we can work something out.

Rita was awesome with Simba, who had a great time. She was sharing several pictures and videos, that was such a delight and peace of mind.

Rita is the best sitter for real! She is so nice, responsive and accommodating. My pup always has a great time with her and her dogs and comes back a very happy girl. 10/10 would recommend to every single dog parent I know

My Peppi had a wonderful time! Rita was flexible and made it easy for me both drop off and pick up. She shared pictures and a short summary of the day with me at the end of each day. Will definitely recommend her to friends!

Rita is great! She was quick to respond to messages and flexible with scheduling. She took an interest in getting to know my dog's temperament and personality and making him feel at home. I received multiple photos and videos of my dog. I could tell from watching the videos provided that my dog felt safe and was happy in her care. That was a big relief as I was in another country during the time of his stay. My dog really liked her dog Senna so much also. Senna was sweet, calm and friendly towards my dog. The area she lives is extremely safe, so my dog was able to get lots of outdoor walks and playtime. I would definitely book with her again as she was very easy to communicate with and seems sincerely passionate about taking care of dogs.

I currently work mostly from home so we go on walks at least 3 times a day with one dog play session with other dogs in the afternoon. I try to be as accommodating as I can towards other dogs to make sure they can be as happy as they can be with me.
