I have my dog, Brodie, and my routine revolves around him. I make sure he gets the memtal and physical stimulation and exercise he needs to be healthy and happy. I want to help my clients and pets with this as well for their families.

I like to know what a dog likes. I like large breeds and also small breeds. Any training I can continue with that your dog is working on?

A typical day

I love to go for walks and to play with dogs for mental and physical stimulation.I will throw balls or practice commands, whatever we need to do. For cats, I like to provide entertainment and a lap, whatever they need.

Great care of your dogs!

Pet care experience

Animal lover here! I take very good care of dogs of all kinds as demonstrated by my volunteer and pet sitting experience. I have volunteered at shelters with scared dogs large and small, fostered and trained shelter puppies, was a babysitter for puppy raisers with Guide Dogs for the Blind and served client families as a professional pet sitter. My role for others' fur babies is to provide care so that they have their needs met in their parents' absence. I am a great surrogate parent! I like to keep dog routines continued to minimize stress on pets and their people. For parents that don't have the time or for dogs that can use additional exercise, I can take dogs out for walks. I have also been a cat mom of 4 at once and love cats too!

Love Ronda! She has been a lifesaver with Sweetpea, wearing her out for a good night's sleep for us all! Also very kind in dealing with my communication challenges during my chaotic work schedule, I'm so appreciative!

Ronda was great from when I first got in touch with her to when I got back home.

This was our first time with a new pet sitter here in WA and it was really lovely to get home and find all our babies restful and relaxed. She took care of all their needs (we have 4 senior babies) and even checked off the list I left for her! She updated me with texts too which was really nice. Thank you Ronda!

Ronda is the best - she took care of my dog and cats on two different occasions when I was out of town. They were safe and happy when I got home. She spent extra time with them giving them attention, and helping them to feel less lonely while mom was away. Ronda is very caring, and has a gentle demeanor that made me know she was the right choice to care for my animals. I have confidence she can care for any animal, and would absolutely recommend her to others.
