I pretend to be a dog in public
Pet care experience
As a child I spent a lot of time with my babysitter's two doberman pinchers, my cousin's black lab, and around the time I was in middle school we adopted Shelly, a cocker spaniel. I have also done dog walking, house sitting, and drop in visits as an employee of a dog walking company in Brooklyn, N.Y. In addition, I have volunteered and interned for a few summers at Animal Haven, and incredible animal shelter in Soho. I was trained there to care for dogs who presented as aggressive due to past trauma. This means I know how to work with dogs who have survived abuse, or have special health, or behavioral needs. I also know how to work with all different sizes of dogs and various breeds. I am patient, kind, and fun loving, and I feel connected to any and every dog I meet.
Reviews
I would not trust my dog with anyone other than Ruby! She is so incredibly loving and understands that a dog is more than just a pet. My dog is a 15-year-old mutt, and while she is generally skittish around new people, she came to Ruby like a moth to a flame. The respect Ruby gives animals is exactly what I was looking for from someone I was trusting to walk my dog. Seriously, she's the best dog walker I've ever used over my 15 years of owning dogs!! Use and enjoy her services :)
Ruby is the consummate canine caregiver. She is responsible, sensitive, loving, and sophisticated in her relationship to the pooch population. She is completely reliable and trustworthy and has had personal experience caring for her own beloved dog since the age of 13, as well as multiple dog sitting engagements including week-long caregiving commitments. Ruby is a real find for dog owners who need peace of mind while apart from their family member!
