About
I have been living around and caring for animals pretty much my entire life. Growing up I've had dogs, birds, rodents, bunnies, and even a turtle (that I still have). I will care for your pet as if they are my own and even provide updates so you can keep up with how things are going.

Rita is great and my dogs love spending time with her. She’s been watching my pups since September of 2022. There’s no better place I’d feel safe leaving my dogs for over a week. I get photo updates and little descriptions on how my pups are doing. My boarding days have been 7+ days so she picks up and drop off the pups which is such an amazing thing to offer people going on vacation. She’s also been feeding my birds and watering my plants recently which is another amazing service I’m grateful she provides. Prices aren’t over inflated which is highly appreciated especially since taking care of dogs isn’t an easy task! I feel like my dogs get a more personalized touch. She cares for them and their specific little needy personalities. They leave with her happily and come back home just as happy. You could not go wrong with the experience provided. 1000% recommend!

Rita did a wonderful job with my birds and guinea pigs while I was away. One can tell she really loves animals. She was also responsive to communicate with. I'm glad I found her!
