Ruby can care for
Availability
Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around caring for and walking my own senior dog. Spending time outside on walks is a regular part of my day, and this is the main work I’m focusing on, which means I have good flexibility and availability for dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m used to planning my schedule around dogs’ needs and making sure they get the time, attention and exercise they require.

About Ruby T.
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for a dog, I believe the most important thing is listening carefully to the owner and following their instructions, as every dog has their own routine and needs. During walks I focus on making sure dogs get safe, enjoyable exercise at a pace that suits them, whether they’re energetic or prefer a slower walk. For drop-in visits I’m happy to make sure dogs are fed, have fresh water, get attention and time outside if needed, and generally feel comfortable and relaxed while their owner is away.
Information Ruby T. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for a dog, I think it's vital for us all to have a meet & greet. I like to understand their routine, walking habits, commands, health needs, limits on exercise. It's also important for me to know how they behave around other dogs, people or anything that might trigger them so I can handle walks safely and confidently.
A typical day
I like to let dogs set the pace and enjoy their walk, whether that means a steady walk or plenty of time to sniff and explore. During visits, I'm happy to play games, spend time in the garden or simply give attention and cuddles, depending on what the dog enjoys.

Lifelong dog owner who loves long walks
Pet care experience
I’ve had dogs for most of my life and have experience caring for a wide range of breeds including Corgis, Jack Russells, Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Staffies, Springer Spaniels and Labradors. Because of that I’m comfortable with different temperaments, energy levels and sizes of dogs. I’m used to handling strong dogs on walks as well as older dogs who prefer a slower pace. I currently have a dog of my own and spend a lot of time walking the local paths and tracks, so regular exercise and safe, enjoyable walks are already part of my daily routine. I’ve also helped friends by walking and sitting their dogs, and I always aim to make sure dogs feel relaxed, comfortable and well looked after while they’re with me.
Reviews
I have an anxious dog who comes with a long list of instructions, but Ruby has been brilliant with her. Ruby has listened and carried out what's been asked and my little nervous best friend absolutely loves her. I couldn't recommend a Ruby enough!
