Safety, trust & environment
I have a spacious, fenced-in backyard where dogs can run and play freely. At home, I also have a friendly cockapoo and two cats, so your pets will be in good company.

Information Ruth D. would like to know about your pet
Please make me aware of any special needs or behaviors a dog may have so I can ensure they’re comfortable and well taken care of. If you know about any of the dog’s medical conditions, diet restrictions, anxiety triggers, or anything they may be sensitive to (like loud noises or certain handling), just let me know. It’s also helpful to know if they have any quirky habits, like being shy around new people, needing extra time to warm up to strangers, or having favorite toys or routines. This helps me make sure the experience is as enjoyable and stress-free as possible for them!
A typical day
I love keeping dogs and cats entertained and happy while I pet-sit! Whether it's playing fetch, tug-of-war, or hide and seek, I'm always up for a fun challenge. I also enjoy providing mental stimulation through puzzle toys or teaching new tricks. We can go for walks or hikes or explore dog-friendly parks if they’re social. If the dog enjoys water, I’d be happy to take them to the beach or let them splash around in a kiddie pool. After a fun day, I’m all about winding down with cuddles or a relaxing nap together. Your dog’s happiness and comfort are my top priority!

Reviews

Amazing communication and was so great with our blind senior dog. Would highly recommend Ruth for anyone looking for a sitter. She was fantastic!


Ruth was amazing! She always takes great care of our cats.

Lucy had such a wonderful stay with Ruth! Lucy is a bit shy at first, but Ruth provided such great care and updates. We’ll definitely rebook in the future!


Ruth was so great! Took amazing care of our two cats. Thank you Ruth!
