    About Rita

    I’m passionate about animals, especially dogs, and my love for them has driven me to offer professional pet sitting services. From a young age, dogs have always been a part of my life, teaching me lessons in loyalty, compassion, and the joy of unconditional companionship. I understand that pets aren’t just animals—they’re family. They deserve the same care, attention, and love when you're away that they receive when you're home. That’s where I come in. My goal as a pet sitter is to provide your dog with the comfort, attention, and exercise they need, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy until you return. Whether it’s taking them on daily walks, playing fetch, or simply offering cuddles, I strive to create a stress-free environment for both you and your pet. I know how important it is to find someone who truly cares about your dog's well-being, and I’m committed to building a bond with your furry friend, ensuring they’re in great hands. With a deep understanding of dog behavior and their unique needs, I’m here to offer peace of mind, knowing your pet is treated with the same love and care as you would give them. During dog sitting, I provide personalized care, ensuring your dog feels safe, comfortable, and engaged. I’ll take them on regular walks, play their favorite games, and offer plenty of love and attention. As I work from home, I’m flexible with hours and can accommodate your dog’s routine, whether it’s a mid-day walk or extra playtime. I enjoy working with all breeds, but I have a special fondness for smaller ones like Shih Tzus, Yorkies, Maltese, and Cocker Spaniels. Rest assured, your dog will get the care they deserve while you’re away, and I’ll always keep you updated. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs, having looked after my friend’s dog for two weeks and also taking care of my family’s pets during their vacations. This has given me the opportunity to develop a strong understanding of different dog personalities and needs. I’m skilled at managing feeding schedules, providing regular walks, and keeping dogs entertained with playtime and affection. My past experiences have helped me build trust and patience, ensuring your dog will feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m dedicated to providing the same level of care and attention I give to my own pets.

    Rita minded Harry for me this week. It was a great experience. I was very nervous leaving him but I had no cause for worry. Rita kindly sent me updates throughout the day reassuring me and when I collected him he was in great spirits. I dropped him off again this morning and he was happy out. I usually need a minder once a week sometimes more so this has been a really positive experience for me and Harry.
