Availability

I work full-time at an OB/GYN clinic 4 days a week. My hours are from 7 am to 5:30 pm, so I am free most days after 5:30 pm. I have one day off a week, and I do not work there on weekends. My off day is usually Mondays but it can vary; I am almost always free on weekends. I get my schedule well in advance, so if you want to know when I am available a certain week, I will definitely be able to tell you!

Safety, trust & environment

Every pet is different. My pets at home have specific routines that they like to stick to and are more comfortable with. In my experience, I usually ask the owner to write or message me what their pet needs and when they need it. This way, they don't feel that too much has changed from their day to day, even if their owner isn't there. For example, people usually let me know what time their pet eats, how many times they usually need to go to the bathroom, and generally what makes them happy. This way, I can give them what they need and make them comfortable when they are missing you!

Information Ruby S. would like to know about your pet

Please don't hesitate to tell me about your pet's needs. I have experience giving medication to cats and dogs, and I work in healthcare, so I know the importance of keeping a routine with those sorts of things!

A typical day

I have a car, so we can go on walks in nature if that is okay. I will also play with them and their favorite toy for however long they would like. If they like to watch tv or videos or even just relax, I would love to do that as well!

Young professional who loves pets!

Pet care experience

All my life, I have had a special connection with animals. Even the pets that are "sassier" than others, I have been able to connect with to make them comfortable. Animals love me, and I love them! I attribute this to the fact that I have been a pet sitter in my neighborhood since middle school, and I have had several different kinds of pets growing up. Now that I am a college graduate, I am looking to expand my network. I have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, as well as some more exotic pets. Please let me know if you have any questions for me!

Our cat adores when Ruby comes to visit. She is attentive, caring, reliable and trustworthy. Whether it is just a check-in visit or a longer stay, Ruby does a great job!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
