About

It's important to have someone you can trust. I am trustworthy, honest and reliable. When I give my word, it's a done deal! Communication is so important. I love communicating with my customers when away about how their "babies" are doing. Also texting pictures of them when they miss them too much! Getting outside and walking dogs are a true joy. They love it, and I also benefit. Also I love sweet affectionate cats.It's a pleasure to take care of and cuddle them! I also enjoy caring for sweet birds. They are a delight!! *Because of COVID 19 the use of masks when visiting for a meet and greet is mandatory. I value your life and my own. Please have your pets cleaned for me for overnight stays. Much appreciated! Let's stay safe and create an environment that is good for all. Thank you kindly, Rita Inserra

I was on vacation in Sarasota for 6 weeks and needed an occasional sitter for my dog. We were so lucky to meet Rita. She is a really kind person as well as responsive, punctual and a great communicator. Most importantly, Rita was so sweet with my dog Bailey and earned Bailey’s trust very quickly, which can be quite rare with my shy beagle. You won’t be disappointed if you select Rita to take care of your pet.

Details: Dog • 1 pet • Providing exercise • Providing companionship • Overnight visit (10-12 hours) • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Rita did a marvelous job sitting our cat while we were on vacation! I was able to actually relax not worrying that Cali was lonely or needing anything. The daily updates were so nice and reassuring. Will definitely have Rita come back for our next time away!

Rita was quick to respond to my need for a pet sitter. She was very attentive to my fur babies when she first met them and they responded well to her. Loved the check-ins and pics she sent me while I was away. Great experience.
