Pet care experience
Care for animals with complex needs
Hi, I’m Ruby! I’ve worked in animal welfare for six years and absolutely love animals of all shapes and sizes. As a certified dog trainer, I specialize in caring for pets with behavioral challenges like anxiety and reactivity, and have experience with a wide range of breeds, ages, and temperaments. Currently, I work in the behavior department at an animal shelter, where I help support dogs with complex needs. I am a certified trainer through the Karen Pryor Academy, Council for Professional Dog Trainers, and also Fear-Free certified. If your pet has prior training you would like me to help maintain or if there is something you would like me to work on with them, just let me know! I’m also experienced with puppies, seniors, and pets with medical conditions, including mobility issues, diabetes, and seizure disorders. I have experience with a wide range of exotic species as well, including but not limited to rats, guinea pigs, snakes and livestock. If your pet has any behavioral or training challenges, just let me know in advance—I’m happy to help. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family!

Ratings and reviews
Wonderfully stepped in at the last minute when I was out of town and went above and beyond a basic dropin. Also got my insanely shy cat to open up immediately!
Another great experience with Ruby! She helped us with our cats for 11 days, and always so nice & friendly, photos and everything! We already asked for help again next month. Thank you so much!
Ruby took great care of our kitties. She was timely and always provided details of the visits and photos every time she checked on our girls. I would reccomend her services to anyone.
Ruby is a dependable sitter who got along with my cat almost instantly. Would recommend if looking for a sitter you can trust!
Ruby took such great care of Bogey! She kept us up to date on how he was doing and he came home a happy, tired pup.
Great, smooth experience with Ruby! She helped us a bit last minute and did exactly as asked. We will for sure book with her again for our pets, thank you very much!

A typical day
I run, so if your dog is high energy i’d love to go running with him or her! I also love nature so we will definitely be visiting a park if there is one near by! If i’m just stopping by for a check in i’ll shower your pet with love and play a game of fetch or two :)

- Please let me know if your pet is shy or anxious around strangers. If the dog is going to hide from me or be hard to get the leash on that is important for me to know! Also, please let me know if your dog is reactive to other dogs or people.
