Riya was great! She popped in every day as requested and made sure my cat was fed. She also did a very good job coordinating with me prior to the visits and took pictures where my cat was clearly happy. I would highly recommend her!

Riya did such a great job! She is extremely reliable and dependable. I felt comfortable having her walk my dog. She listened to instructions well and my dog always seemed relaxed/happy.

Safety, trust & environment

I am always extremely careful and respectfully when entering your home! I will always follow your families rules when it comes to caring for your pets whether that be no animals on the furniture or feeding instructions! I always prefer to do a virtual or in person meeting to make sure all expectations are fulfilled!

Information Riya D. would like to know about your pet

During the meeting before booking I will ask a number of questions, some of those being: what does meal time look like in your family, is your animal allergic to anything. Is there anything that I should be looking out for during the walks that may be a trigger for your dog? I will also ask if there’s anything you can think of that I should be aware of that we didn’t mention.

A typical day

A typical day in the life of my puppy Jameson is a morning walk or a long trip to the dog park! Once the evening hits, we do another long walk or a hike in the local parks around my neighborhood, do some sniff work during dinner time and finish off the day with a kong filled with his favorite treat! It’s incredibly important to fulfill both his mental and physical needs throughout the day!!
