Pet care experience

I already love your dog!

I've been drawn to caring for dogs since I was a very little kid. I've always been very attuned to their needs but after having a dog who couldn't walk well and another dog who was very fear aggressive for over 10 years, I'm even more keyed in to when they need something. I share the dog watching duties with amazing my partner Johnny has also had dogs their whole life and is well trained on helping dogs feel safe.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm available for boarding at my home where I have LOTS of room for cuddling and playing. We have a big couch for snuggles, a dog bed, and a queen sized bed for spoiled pups. I will not leave your dog home alone for more than 2 to 4 hours at a time unless previously discussed but even that's rare. We are usually very good at avoiding leaving home at all. :) We live on a very quite street in a detached single family home. Most importantly, we have a HUGE totally privacy fenced in backyard (shown in our photos). It is a dogs dream. I am happy to do a meet and greet in my yard/house ahead of time so you and your dog can get a feel for how a stay would be!

From our first interactions, Ruby and Johnny were communicative, enthusiastic, and altogether lovely. I felt confident that Bento's training would be maintained and that he would be loved and cared for, all of which were indeed the case. Bento will be thrilled to spend more time with these two, and I highly recommend them for all your dog-sitting needs. Thanks again!!!

Ruby and Johnny are amazing!! We felt so reassured even at our meet-and-greet that our (sometimes nervous) pup would have a great time and be spoiled with so much love and zoomies in the yard! They sent updates of him enjoying the sunshine, snuggling up and feeling right at home ☺️💙 So grateful!

I was so nervous about leaving my dog overnight for the first time with someone other than family, but Ruby was so reassuring and communicative that I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing my sweet girl was in great hands. I’m so grateful for Ruby’s expertise, patience, and flexibility throughout the whole experience. Thanks so much again! =)

Our family went on a cruise so our availability was a little challenging. I felt very at ease with Ruby and Chris. They kept us all informed through the app. Our dogs LOVED them! The communication was tremendous! I will definitely be back!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am a licensed Marriage and Family therapist who works from home and my partner is currently on break from work so he is home most days and nights. We'd love to have a buddy or two! One of us is always available for all the fun, snuggles, and exercise with your dog!

16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Ruby can host up to 1 walk per day
Please let me know your dogs likes and dislike ahead of time so we can start off on the right foot! Note on reactive doggos: I won't watch dogs that are likely to bite ME but because of my last dog, I've become very good with fear aggressive pups who aren't comfortable with other dogs or cats. It would be easy for me to keep them feeling safe in our now petless house.
