Will love your pet like my own!

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of animals since my first kitties at the age of 5! I have been trusted by friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers to responsibly watch over their animals from my first job at the age of 10 to now. I have been in charge of walking, feeding, bathing, and just all around loving peoples pets when they are away! I hope to adopt my own puppy one day when the time is right, but until them I am excited to watch over and care for your dog as I would my own!

Ruth & Eli we're SO great with Parker for a week+ trip. He was so happy and healthy when we returned and all the pics of outdoor activities made our day. Would definitely recommend Ruth to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, easy-going place to stay for an active pup.

Ruth was so nice and friendly and I had no hesitation on leaving my dog with her. Would definitely use her services again. 10/10 recommend!

Ruth was super easy to work with and our little pup was happy as could be when we returned after a long day away. Thank you, Ruth!

Safety, trust & environment

I live right next to a park where dogs often go to romp around and play fetch. At my house we also have access to a fenced off porch to allow the dogs to hang outside without fear of them running away. I am also a big train runner and hiker, so if your dog is staying with me they are guaranteed a daily hike to tire them out!

I work at a restaurant at nights and have a flexible schedule, giving me all day to romp around and care for your pet. I also live with my dog-loving boyfriend who works at a restaurant during the day, allowing us both to constantly be available to care for your pet all day long!
