I’m a pet lover and ready to care

Pet care experience

I have grown up with various animals, from birds to cats and dogs, even reptiles and have experience in raising and training all types of pets. I have assisted in pet births, and have even helped revive a puppy that stopped breathing during birth. I love animals and have a dog and two cats at home. I’m happy and ready to take care of your pets and help get out their energy

Ruth was so great to Beebo! He is very anxious and she went above and beyond to help him feel safe. She sent the best pictures and sent lots of updates. Great experience and would recommend her.

Information Ruth D. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your pet needs any medications or has any health issues I should be aware of, and how friendly your animals are with other animals so I know if I should avoid busy trails or areas if I walk your dog.

A typical day

I love taking dogs on hikes or walks around trails and nature areas. They get so excited and it’s fun to watch their curious sniffs. I also enjoy playing with all animals, and just getting their energy out, weather that be playing with them just as of playing a game of fetch.
