I am a SEN teaching assistant in Newcatsle and looking after pets helps dre stress and also gets me out the house! I am a good communicator and happy to help, due to living in a rented house I am unable to sit here. I enjoy long walks around parks and to the beach, if the dog i am sitting is okay on the metro, but also quick 30 minute walks during the day. I sometimes bring my boyfriend with me for walks which dogs usually love as he plays cricket and steals the limelight when playing fetch with a ball, he grew up with labradors so also has a lot experience.

Safety, trust & environment

I am unable to pet sit in my house due to renting, however would be more than happy to watch overnight at owners houses, I have done this before with friends and family. I am clean and tidy and enjoy baking so may leave a few treats for you to come back too. I enjoy reading and watching films as well as going for walks.

Information Ruth R. would like to know about your pet

Although I have never worked with a dog with special needs before, I have looked both puppies and older dogs both of which need a little extra care particularly when it comes to going to the toilet.

A typical day

I love long walks through parks and on the beach, and am confident with dogs of all sizes, I enjoy this as well as playing in the house and chilling out. I would be happy to continue any training going on.

Ruth was fantastic. She stepped in at short notice and was efficient, kind and helpful. I’d highly recommend her.

Ruth has looked after and walked my dog Paddy on several occasions. During these times, I have been consistently impressed by Ruth’s responsible and caring nature. Ruth demonstrated great attention to Paddy’s needs, including feeding, exercise, and companionship. She followed all of my instructions thoroughly and kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I am confident that Ruth would provide excellent care for any dog and would be an asset to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog sitter/walker. Your dog will be very lucky to be looked after/walked by Ruth.
