WFH Pet's soft bestfriend

Emotionally intelligent and attuned to their behavior Growing up, I had a family dog we had her since she was 3 months old. And two lovely kitties in my adulthood. As a sitter, * I send daily reports that include their mood, things observed, and photos. * Especially first few days, I try to spend more quality time with them noticing their petsonality and behavior. I know it’s hard for them to be away from their parents. * I let them sniff all the way during our walks * I provide excellent pettings/attection. Though I also know when they want space. Then I just talk to them sweet things and still give attentions such that they know I am there for them. * I love resting/relaxing and snuggling with pets. I often pay attention to their emotions and am able to work with them. I am happy when the animals are happy. Always soft to them no matter what (even when they broke knocking over my lovely antique lamp ! )

River was so thoughtful and took great care of Miss Thing. She gave updates and followed all the instructions I left for her. She left my home clean and tidy!

Excellent with my Ozzy. Super understanding of his needs and accommodating. He’s got a lot of anxiety and probably gave her a lot of trouble on the first day then River was expecting but pulled through like a trooper. Very happy and would rebook again if they let me.

River was great with my dog, Julius! Very communicative with me, arrived early, and gave Julius lots of love and attention. Thank you, River!

River was great! Very communicative and happy to send pictures/updates throughout. She generously accommodated some scheduling snafus between us, and additionally was happy to come meet him before the trip to ease into things. Importantly, she was happy to ask questions as needed. Our dog requires patience and exhibits some odd (charming) traits, and she was happy to learn how to accommodate a dog like that and get to know and meet his needs. While our dog was happy to see us, he wasn't overly relieved we were back, either :)

River was great. Very communicative. She sent me pictures every day and a nightly recap of how Disco’s day went. I would definitely board with her again.

River was a great house guest and took great care of both our pups. One of our dogs is pretty shy and she gave her the space she needed. Thank you again!

Safety, trust & environment

I do not have my pet at the moment. So if the animals stay at my place, they will be the only pet to roam around my place.

A typical day

With kitties, I play with their favorite toys and find their favorite spots to pet ( usually facial areas :) ) With dogs, honestly walks are their favorite activities so I go for walks with them and fetch. Petting/communicating with affection.
