Highlights
Pet care experience
free puppy pictures included!! 🤩🥰
I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I was never allowed to have a dog growing up so I would help out my neighbors wherever i was living at the time when they were at work. I also volunteered at an animal shelter for a couple years and went through proper training on how to take care of and make both dogs and cats feel as comfortable as possible. I was finally able to convince my parents to let me have a dog and I have been the main caretaker of my golden doodle smudge for about three years now

Safety, trust & environment
My dog gets two meals a day and a snack around lunch time. We go on a short morning walk and a longer evening walk after dinner. For overnight house sitting my goal is to make sure to follow the routines that clients already have in place for their pets as not to change their schedules. My boyfriend Cameron and I love taking care of the dogs and giving them a special staycation
Ratings and reviews
Riya stayed with our pups in our home for a full week and she was wonderful. The dogs loved her and I got pictures and updates all week. She took great care of the dogs and my home!

Riya went above and beyond for our senior pup. He had tummy troubles while we were away, and she kept him happy and comfortable, and kept us updated the whole time we were gone. I would highly recommend Riya and would definitely items book her again!

We couldn’t have asked for more. We were traveling with our “fur baby” and Riyah watched her several times when we were going to places that weren’t quite pet -friendly-haha. She did an amazing job and our Bambina adored her. Riyah is definitely forever our “go to” person for pet care in the Chicago area!!!

Winston and Ginny loved having Riya on their staycation!
We were gone for a week, and my animals were clearly taken care of! Riya also took out the garbage and made sure my house was as neat as it was when we left. Highly recommend Riya!


Riya and Cameron did an amazing job watching our dogs, Minnie and Leo! We really appreciated the updates while we were away and could tell Minnie and Leo were having a great time.

Schedule
I have recently switched jobs so I have a lot more free time on my hands and am finally able to get started with Rover after wanting to job for years. This way I can take care of and love on all of the animals and I can take some of the responsibilities off of another animal parent because I know it can be hard sometimes.
