I’m flexible with my schedule and able to make time throughout the week for pet care, walks, check-ins, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m reliable about routines and communication, and I always try to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away.

Information Ruby K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your pet has any special needs, medications, allergies, fears, or behaviors I should know about. I’d also love to know their normal routine, favorite toys or activities, and how they do around new people or other animals so I can make them feel as comfortable and cared for as possible.

A typical day

A typical day with me would include lots of love, attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, and cuddle time depending on your pet’s personality and energy level. I love making pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away, and I’ll always try to stick to their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pet is super playful or more calm and shy, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they need.

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for many years and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. I have experience with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet with care and respect like they’re my own.

Ruby was great to work with! She was super responsive, even on a holiday weekend. Our dogs had a great time. We are looking forward to working with her again!

She was great with Bubbles and made the whole experience stress free. It was clear Bubbles was well cared for, and I really appreciated her attentiveness. I’d happily recommend her to others and would book with her again.
