Pet care experience

I am well traveled and well educated so my skill set in addition to pet caring will be valuable when intelligent decisions and communications about your pet are required for their safety. Respecting your home and loved ones are just as important as exercising your pet. I'm a business owner of an all natural organic pet treat company and trusted by all of my peers. I can predict problems before they become issues.I am very familiar with Carmel and Monterey. Lots of places for your furry friends to have a nice hike, walk on the beach(during COVID). I have plenty of excellent references and love all animals. (Especially dogs). However I have also been called the “kitty whisperer”. So I really have a knack with all of our wonderful furry friends.

Ruth was great! Flexible with our plans, sent photos of Willow at the beach, relayed great stories of her days. This was my first Rover booking & I had anxiety; Ruth allayed those concerns and Willow was so excited to see her the next day! This made it so nice for my mom & I to enjoy the Aquarium and other sites without worrying about how Willow was doing all the time. She came home tired and happy. Best that a dog mom could ask for!

We are so glad Ruth was available to watch our dog Coco for the day. She was flexible and understanding of Coco’s needs and quirks.

Ruth was pleasant and easy going. She embraced Tumi with open arms and made her feel at ease immediately. She sent updates and pictures regularly and her communication with us was very prompt. I will definitely bring my pup over to stay with her again!
