Pet care experience

I do love animals and when your animal(s) have me to care for them. I definitely give love, care and spoil them as my own. I live on a mountain overlooking Chesters Gap and part of Blue Ridge mountains. Very beautiful and peaceful. Very high altitude and main roads are paved. There are some inclines and steep driveways. Keep in mind that this is in a home. Not a kennel. Important to set up meet and greet to make sure furbabies are a good fit. I have a fenced yard, treadmill or I walk when when pavement not too hot for paws. Safe and smoke-free home. I give animals lots of attention, playtime, break time and rest when needed. I am caring, reliable, honest, responsible and dependable. You will be happy and your pet will be happy. I am good with all ages and different kinds of breeds. I do have cats that like dogs and usually climb up their shelves or go to different level of home. I have a Border Collie/ Australian Shepherd, Havanese and a Yorkshire territor. Any questions or concerns please let me know. I am currently working from home and have plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets. I do try to stick to your furbabies schedule. I have a fenced yard. Also, I have 3 friendly dogs that have been around many different types of dogs for several years. I do not leave any furbabies alone with eachother if I need to go on an errand.

Ruth and her family were amazing! Hamlet got to be on all the furniture just like at home and so many stuffed toys which he loved. The family dogs were friendly and the cats were chill. Will definitely use Ruth again!

Ruth was great! I received lots of photos and updates of my dog when we were away. Ruth picked up and dropped of Rascal with no problems. There is no doubt that I would use Ruth again. She's great!!

Ruth was wonderful with Charlie who is a little timid. Charlie made herself comfortable with Ruth.

My dog, Gates, has become best friends with her dog Thor. You can clearly see their friendship and it’s wonderful to see. Ruth is amazing with Gates. The walks, the playing, the nap times are perfect for my active beagle. Ruth has him on a wonderful schedule. I don’t worry or wonder about Gates when he’s in Ruth’s care which shows how much trust I put in Ruth to care for Gates. Ruth is truly Gates’ second momma!
