Ruth's Pet Sitting Service
Hi, I’m Ruth. I have grown up with animals and have cared for a wide variety of weird and wonderful pets, including cats, dogs, hedgehogs, rabbits and Guinea pigs. I’m caring and patient, and have always enjoyed the company of animals. I'm also able to administer medication to pets should they require this, and I have some experience with reactive dogs, too. I'm currently working full time on site in Hinxton, Cambridge; however, for ~1 week pet sitting, I am willing to book holiday for either the full or part of the booking to ensure I am available for your pet. Please note due to allergies I am unable to pet sit in smoking houses. I only provide care in your home. If your dog is a puppy under 1-year old I will be in the home with the pup at all times. I will follow any special instructions you require.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Ruth was very communicative, sharing plenty of updates and photos of our cat, Geno. Most importantly, Geno looked happy and well-cared for in every photo.
Ruth was wonderful. Rocco loved her and she wins "Best Photographer"
Ruth is communicative and competent. She looked after our French bulldog and we would work with her again.
Trixie was a very happy puppy when we came home - always a great sign of a good good sitter! The house was spotless too ☺️
Ruth looked after my Cockapoo Buzz for an afternoon/evening. She came and sat with him in our house and was was very friendly and Buzz immediately warmed to her. Would definitely rebook!
Ruth has very kindly taken on the weird request of boarding my pet Hedgehog whilst I was away. Herbie was very well looked after and doted on whilst in her care, even giving him plenty of live worms as a treat. I am incredibly happy with her service and would definitely hire her again!

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I only provide care in your home. On walks, dogs will remain on lead at all times, even if they have excellent recall. If your pet has any health issues that you are aware of, as make me aware. I am happy to administer mediation, and in worst-case scenarios, I own a car and would be able to take your pet to the vet in emergencies.
Pets
A typical day
I’ll be looking after your dog at your home, so your dog will be in familiar surroundings with all their favourite toys to play with. I’ll take them for walks and play with them, and also provide mentally stimulating games.
