Availability
I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, so I am flexible to do walks or check-ins throughout the day Friday-Monday. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays are a little less flexible, but I’m happy to help out early mornings (before 8am) or evenings (after 6pm-ish). I am available for house sitting Thursday through Monday night. Please feel free to reach out if I can be of any help, and I look forward to meeting your furry friends!

About Ruth E.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in your home, I treat it like it’s my own. I always leave a space clean and exactly as I found it. In terms of how a day is structured, I wake up pretty early and can take dogs out right away. After taking care of the basics, I take them out for a walks and play outside. At night, I’ll curl up with them (if that’s their style!) and take care of final needs before bedtime.
Information Ruth E. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs and relevant dietary information. I would love to know a little about their behavior and preferences as well.
A typical day
During a day of pet care, I provide activities, cuddles, and full attention to your animals. I love to tire dogs out with long walks and playing, then veg out with them in the evening!

Flexible, Safe, Loving Caregiver
Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Ruthie. I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I started my experience with animal care with my many childhood pets, including a cat, dog, budgies, fish, and a tortoise. I started pet-sitting at age 12, where I would care for my neighbors' pets when they went on vacation. I would feed, walk/ relieve, and always give cuddles to the pet(s) when possible. I have lots of recent experience taking care of dogs and cats long-term, both in my home and house-sitting. I am currently living in the South End of Boston and am available for walks, check-ins, and housesitting. I have a car and am willing to travel a reasonable distance, and could transport your pet if that was ever necessary.
Reviews

As always, Ruth was great with our energetic boxer!

Ruth has stayed with our energetic boxer a few times. When we return home, he is always happy and the house is always well taken care of. Highly recommend.

Ruth always provides great care for our energetic Boxer, is communicative, and the apartment is spotless. Highly recommend!

Ruth was fantastic, communicative & respectful- came home to a happy and healthy cat. Will definitely be using her again!
