Professional, reliable & caring

Pet care experience

Your pet deserves the best care, attention and love. I’m an experienced pet sitter and dog walker having served clients and their wonderful cats and dogs in Telluride, San Francisco and London. On our ranch near Telluride, I spent my youth caring for animals of all types. I find that cats and dogs tell us exactly what they need through subtle, non-verbal communication. I take pride in listening to those tells and supporting your cat or dog to be their happiest.

River is outstanding. The doggies are so happy to have him come check on them during our long work shifts. We trust our dog’s care with River— it feels like he really cares! He goes above and beyond what we ask and is so respectful to us, our dogs, and our space.

River did a fantastic job taking care of our 12 year old golden retriever and 4 month old golden puppy along with our two outdoor cats during the holidays. He was a great communicator and was proactive through the whole process. We will be using him again in the future! Thanks again River!

Information River C. would like to know about your pet

⇙ Let’s discuss ⇙ ∙ Behavior towards other dogs ∙ Road and vehicle awareness ∙ Dog bed or on-bed sleeper ∙ Training and commands ∙ Wildlife chase response ∙ Favorite forms of play ∙ Injuries or limitations ∙ Dietary restrictions ∙ Length of walks

A typical day

We can walk their favorite trail, jump in the river, fetch, tug of war with their favorite toy, or just relax with some belly and ear scratches. I find when a cat or dog feels safe and noticed, they will let you know what activity they’re most interested in. Please let me know if your dog or cat loves a particular activity.

I work part-time as a certified public accountant. If I have computer work while pet sitting, rest assured, I take frequent breaks. I work best in short intervals, where I can step away and spend time with your pet, on a walk, playing, or just providing scratches and plenty of attention.
