Information Ruth H. would like to know about your pet

It's really important to me to know if your pet tends to be aggressive around other people or dogs/animals. Also, does your pet enjoy doing any particular activities? Or special snacks? I'd love to know anything that will make the experience for your pet as low stress and enjoyable as possible for them.

A typical day

We will go to the park or take long walks in the neighborhood. Plenty of activities and rest time too. I'll be sure to take pictures, so you know your pup is doing well.

Positive vibes + adventure

Pet care experience

Positive vibes and sense of adventure make for a happy life. I've always been protective of my pups AND love to encourage exploration. I believe joy is found in a safe home and adventures in the wild (well, at least out and about in our neighborhood!) - Let's go!

This was a great experience!! This was the first time our dog stayed with someone we didn't know and Ruth made the process so easy. We felt so relaxed knowing our dog was not only well taken care of but loved! Ruth sent constant updates and photos to keep us informed. We would definitely return and highly recommend Ruth!!
