My goal is to provide a personalized experience where every dog gets the attention, and care they need to return home happy, healthy, and with their tail wagging.

Pet care experience

I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years and genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog's unique personality. Whether it's going for long walks, playtime, sticking to a feeding schedule, or simply providing companionship, I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I'll treat your dog as if they were my own. I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and personalized care, and I'm always happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. I have an incredibly social and gentle three year old doberman who has been throoughly enjoying each and every pup that has come to visit.

Ruck was fantastic to deal with. We planned a long weekend trip with somewhat late notice and needed someone to watch our dog Cooper. Ruck was flexible and accommodating. Communication was consistent and he sent photo updates so we could rest assured that Cooper was being well taken care of. I would highly recommend Ruck as a pet sitter and we will certainly be our go-to when we need someone to watch our Cooper. Thank you!

Ruck and Blue are so wonderful and our Albie seems to have a great time there. Ruck is always great with communication and accommodated us when we had a late flight arrival causing a late pick up. We won’t hesitate to book again. He also accommodated giving medication to Albert when needed. Thanks Ruck and Blue! ♥️

We had our Albie stay with Ruck and Blue again, this time for a week. Ruck was easy to get a hold of and sent us photo updates which we very much appreciated! We are so happy to find a home that we can trust our boy to be at when we aren’t able to bring him with us. Thank you again, Ruck and Blue!

Ruck made himself available and was easy to communicate with. He sent us a picture and update and Albert seemed to have a great time with him and Blue!
