Availability
I’m currently in a flexible, open-schedule period and available most weekdays and weekends. I can often accommodate last-minute requests and daytime visits. If your pet thrives on routine, I’m happy to set up regular visits or walks. My availability may change slightly week-to-week, but I’ll always communicate clearly and keep my calendar updated.

Safety, trust & environment
I take pet care seriously — you’re trusting me with a member of your family, and I don’t take that lightly. I always follow your instructions closely, check gates and leashes, and make sure pets are secure, safe, and comfortable at all times. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos during visits, so you’re never left wondering how things are going. I’m calm under pressure, and I work to create a low-stress experience for both you and your pet.
Information Ruby K. would like to know about your pet
I always appreciate a heads-up about: - Feeding times + any food allergies - Leash habits or reactivity (people/dogs/squirrels) - Crate routines, if any - Comfort with strangers or new environments - Medications or special care needs - Anything your pet loves or hates (squeaky toys? being picked up?) The more I know, the better I can keep your pet safe and happy — and stick as closely as possible to their normal routine!
A typical day
I tailor each day to your pet’s energy level and needs! If they love walks, we’ll go out for a calm, engaging stroll — sniff breaks encouraged! For higher-energy dogs, I’m happy to incorporate extra playtime or basic training games and practice basic commands to keep things fun and mentally stimulating. If your pet prefers a mellow vibe, we can just relax, get in some pets, and enjoy quiet companionship. I keep things low-stress, always sticking to your pet’s routines. You can also expect photo updates and check-ins, so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.

Caring Dog Sitter, Open Schedule
Pet care experience
Loving, Reliable Pet Care with a Flexible Schedule 🐶🐾 I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities — from small seniors to large energetic breeds. I’ve raised a puppy of my own and have been professionally paid to house-sit and care for multiple dogs (up to five at once). I understand how to match a dog’s energy, follow routines, and create a calm, dependable environment. I'm confident with big dogs (up to 100 lbs) and always tailor my care to each pet’s personality and needs.
Cat care experience
Ruby also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Ruby is a dedicated, responsible and genuine animal lover. She's a loving pet parent and there is no one I would trust more to handle care of my loved ones and pets in my absence. I have known Ruby for many years and she is honest, caring, upbeat and reliable. 10 out of 10! Highly recommend!
