Highlights
Pet care experience
Lifelong Pet Lover with Experience
I was raised in an animal-loving family and have been surrounded by cats and dogs my whole life. Since I was 10, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets as if they were my own. I share a sweet golden retriever named Badu with my partner, and caring for animals brings me genuine happiness and therapeutic contentment. Whether it’s puppies, seniors, or cats with unique personalities, I have the patience and experience to make every pet feel safe and cared for.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard where pups can safely play, and a nearby dog park if they enjoy socializing. I can easily crate your dog if needed and always follow your instructions for feeding, medications, and routines. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I ensure a loving, secure, and stress-free environment.
Ratings and reviews
Ritaj is a wonderful caregiver for my golden retriever, Badu! Reliable, kind, and full of love, they made sure Badu was happy and well cared for. Badu can’t wait to see them again! I wholeheartedly recommend Ritaj!
Ritaj and I used to be roommates, and I’ve seen firsthand how deeply she cares for animals. We spent a lot of time rescuing strays together, finding them safe homes and proper shelter. She’s incredibly patient, compassionate, and dedicated any pet would be lucky to have her looking after them.
Ritaj is one of the most caring and reliable people I know. She has a natural way with animals and treats every pet with so much love, patience, and attention. Whether it’s making sure they’re safe, giving them the exercise they need, or simply showering them with affection, Ritaj goes above and beyond. I would absolutely trust her with any pet, knowing they will be happy, comfortable, and well cared for. D.m

Schedule
Alongside college, I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility to dedicate to your pets. I’m available on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, after 12 PM for walks, or drop-in visits. This allows me to give your pets lots of attention, playtime, and exercise without being rushed. Your pets will be my priority whenever they’re in my care.
