Your Pet is Family!

Pet care experience

I am a dog owner for 15 years and have been sitting and walking dogs for the past 5 years. I am reliable, responsible and go above and beyond for all my clients. I have excellent references by request. My own dogs have always received 3 lengthy walks a day. I believe dogs need exercise for their health and mental stimulation. And of course, for some dogs that might be different and they need more playtime or snuggles. No matter what your dog’s needs are, let me spoil it like it’s my own! As a pet owner who also hires someone to watch my dog, I know how important a decision this is. In addition to caring for your pooch, I am responsible, prompt and responsive. I am a mom and wife, and I also have an MBA from University of Chicago so I can turn your dog into management material! Ok so maybe that’s a stretch... but please consider contacting me anyway!

Ritu cared for my dog Prince like he was her own. She went above and beyond to make sure both Prince and I were comfortable. Ritu followed care instructions and sent frequent updates. She is an experienced dog walker/care-giver and I would trust her and her family to care for my pets one- thousand times over.

Ritu is an amazing caregiver to dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I have known her and her wonderfully trained dogs for years and she has cared for my dog for the last two years for overnight visits, play dates, and walks! Ritu is responsible, honest, and loving to any animal she encounters. She would be a wonderful helping hand for any of your pet's needs!

A typical day

We walk at the local park and as well at the nature preserve. We play with toys. We cuddle and they get belly rubs. I am happy to take dogs to the dog park (10 min from me) if they are allowed. Also all dogs must get along with my dog so I imagine they will also play together.
