About ME
Hey, my name is Ricky Gonzalez.
My name is Ricky Gonzalez, from Louisville, KY. Graduated from Saint Xavier High School in 2023. Now, I am a junior studying finance at the University of Kentucky. Alongside my passion for financial markets and a strong commitment to personal growth—whether it’s through academics, fitness, or entrepreneurship—I’ve discovered a deep love for photography and caring for animals. Since 2021, Ive been pet sitting for neighbors and friends, and it's become more than just a service-it's a way to connect with people and their animals in a meaningful way. I treat every pet and home as if they were my own, always striving to provide the best service possible.
Whether I'm working out, studying the markets, or spending time with a client's pet, I aim to be my best every day-and earn the peace and satisfaction knowing that I truly earned the sunset.

Is a meet-and-greet available before the first visit?
Yes, before the first booking, a complimentary meet-and-greet is offered at the client's home. This allows time to become familiar with the pet, discuss any special instructions, and review expectations.
During this visit, I will also outline the process for keeping the home secure and ensuring the pet's well-being - including regular check-ins, updates, and responsible access to the property.
Are services available during the holidays?
Holiday bookings are available with advance notice. Due to increased demand, it is recommended to schedule early for major holidays.
How are pets kept safe during visits?
Safety is a top priority. During each visit, pets are monitored closely, routines are followed carefully, and any special needs or behaviors are respected. Secure handling, locked doors, and regular updates ensure peace of mind.
How will updates be shared during the visits?
Photo, video, text, and even FaceTime updates will be provided throughout the visit upon request, giving peace of mind and regular insight into how the pet is doing.
How is pricing determined?
Pricing starts at a flat rate of $30 a day, with the final rate depending on location, time spent, and any special accommodations requested.

How much will a photoshoot cost?
*OPTIONAL* - Clients serviced have the option to have their pet photographed with my SONY A7 iii. Animals serviced will have a much cheaper price than a booked date separately just for a photoshoot.

Booked photoshoot dates will be $50/hr.
