About Ritu G.

Dog skills

1 year of experience
Oral medication administration
First aid/CPR

Safety, trust & environment

I believe in being gentle but firm when the pet wants to do something different than the human. For dog walking I will possibly be in the client's home during pickup and drop-off only. I am respectful of the client's wishes during those times

Information Ritu G. would like to know about your pet

I appreciate knowing what your pets' needs (particular medical) and likes are so that I can keep your pet happy and comfortable during our time together.

A typical day

I like to play with dogs and engage them mentally and physically during walks outside. I understand their need for exploration along with the requirement of safety for them, properties, and others. I am always respectful to the client's desires.

Pet care experience

I am a relative newbie to dog walking (have done so volunteering with rescue dogs) but have prior pet experience with hamsters. I am gentle, punctual, detail-oriented, and have a medical background. I will treat your pet with respect, will ensure safe practices, and will accommodate playtime if desired. I am also using this opportunity to help decide on getting a pet myself.

I have an elderly dachshund named Nyla who has survived 3 back surgeries and still going although slower than when she was a pup. Ritu was very sweet and gentle with her in the home and on her walks. She made sure she could go at her own pace and didn't over do it. She carried her up and down the stairs and even made sure the pavement wasn't too hot for Nyla's little paws. I absolutely recommend Ritu as a loving and responsible pet caregiver.
