Experienced, reliable animal lover!
Pet care experience
I began my pet sitting in high school. I have an associate degree as a veterinary technician. I love all types of pets. Now that I am retired I have an extremely flexible schedule. My theory is “Don’t put those babies in a kennel or daycare when they are happiest in their own home!“. Therefore I try to keep my rates reasonable to offer this service. I’ve been sitting for friends and family consistently for the last 7 years. Please read my testimonials!
Reviews
Ruth was great! Super competent and easy to communicate with, she provided great care for our dog Riley. She sent updates and photos, which we always appreciate to keep us up to date. We will definitely use her again in the future.
Ruth was excellent!! My dog loved her!! She sent pictures and updated me daily which I loved. And she kept the house neat and clean, you would never know she was there. I would definitely book Ruth again!!!
Ruth was fantastic! I will definitely rely on her again. My pup didn't even notice that I was gone. :)
She did a great job! I greatly appreciate her flexibility with days/ times as well!

Safety, trust & environment
I prefer to sit at a clients home where the fur babies are most content. I am not intrusive and you wouldn’t even know I was there after I go. But I do live in a pet friendly apartment complex should I need to offer sitting in my own home. Though I do have cats of my own, dogs do not phase them and they are happy to stay out of the way. Also I have a fenced in patio area, should it be needed for some fresh air and outdoor relaxing.

A typical day
I enjoy fur baby snuggles.I am all about sharing the bed with the pets if that is what they are used to. Yes I talk to them like they understand me and enjoy my conversation. Also, always enjoy a walk or being outside because that’s usually where they are happiest.
