Pet care experience
Pawsome Care, Anytime
I’ve been caring for friends’ dogs and my own puppy, Kero, for over 5 years. Our pup was the runt of her litter and needed special human care in her first month, which led to a deep bond with people. When we adopted her, she had severe separation anxiety — she couldn’t be alone for more than 30 seconds, even if we were just on another floor. Through months of consistent training and patience, my husband and I helped her build confidence, and now she can relax alone for over 4 hours. This experience gave me a much deeper understanding of canine behavior, especially anxiety, and has made me a very attentive and empathetic caregiver. Because Kero lives in our home, I currently accept poodle mixes and other non-shedding dogs to keep the environment comfortable for everyone. For boarding, I also ask that dogs are comfortable being alone for reasonable periods and do not have active separation anxiety, so we can maintain a calm and stable environment for all pups in the home. We have a small fenced playground in our neighborhood where friendly pups gather daily—it’s a tight-knit community, and the dogs all get along great. Plus, we’re just a short walk from a city park for even more outdoor fun and sniffing adventures! Here’s what a typical day looks like: • Morning walk (10–20 minutes) to start the day • Breakfast after the walk • Play and rest throughout the morning and early afternoon • Snack time around 3 PM • Short walk around 5 PM after work • Long evening walk (40–60 minutes) around 8 PM to avoid the summer heat • Dinner between 9:00–9:30 PM, depending on how active the evening walk was • Wind down and get ready for bed around midnight Your pup will be part of a loving, active daily routine with lots of play, social time, and care!

Ratings and reviews
We had a wonderful experience with Ru. She took excellent care of Coco, followed all of his care instructions carefully, and kept us updated with regular photos and messages throughout his stay. She was responsive, kind, and made sure he was comfortable and happy. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him. Coco came home happy and well cared for. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring Rover sitter!
This is probably my nth booking with Ru, and there’s a reason I keep coming back. Ru’s reliable, caring, and clearly love the dogs she watches. Mochi gets so excited every time she visits and always comes home happy. Sometimes she seems like she’d rather stay a little longer! I always feel completely at ease knowing she’s in such good hands. Thank you for taking such great care of her. See you next time! 😊🐶
Thank you Ru!! Mochi had a great day again ❤️
Thank you so much, Ru, for taking such great care of Mochi! She had an amazing time and it’s clear she received so much love and attention while staying with you. I truly appreciate it—you made me feel completely at ease leaving Mochi in your care. I would absolutely trust you with her again in the future!
Clean, friendly, good communication. Would use them again and again. My dog was so happy and tired (in a good way) when he got home.
Ru was great with Minnie. I felt she was safe and getting lots of human love while our particular little gal was in her care. Would recommend her and will use again!

Schedule
I currently work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company and won’t be left alone. Walks are available after 5 PM on weekdays. For boarding, dogs should also be comfortable being alone for reasonable periods and not have active separation anxiety, so we can keep a stable environment for everyone in the home.

A typical day
Your pup will have a blast here! Between meetings, I’ll play fetch with them and my own dog, Kero, in our long, carpeted hallway. We also visit a small fenced playground in our neighborhood where friendly pups gather daily—it’s a tight-knit community, and the dogs all get along great. Plus, we’re just a short walk from a city park for even more outdoor fun and sniffing adventures! Here’s what a typical day looks like: • Morning walk (10–20 minutes) to start the day • Breakfast after the walk • Play and rest throughout the morning and early afternoon • Snack time around 3 PM • Short walk around 5 PM after work • Long evening walk (40–60 minutes) around 8 PM to avoid the summer heat • Dinner between 9:00–9:30 PM, depending on how active the evening walk was • Wind down and get ready for bed around midnight Your pup will be part of a loving, active daily routine with lots of play, social time, and care!
