Pet care experience

Hi! My stats say I only gave 50% of home owners pictures with updates; not true, I always do that. I've also got a low % response rate due to having failed to update my calendar last summer, but I'm on top of it for 2023. I'll treat your fur babies like my future fur babies! For more than a week long sits we can discuss a a daily rate based on how much attention your pet and home will need (I also will take into account locations that are distant from my work place if I'm still in an office though working from home is as possibility for the summer) I will do a great job of giving your pups or kitties all the attention they need when I'm there in the evening and mornings however. I'm happy to chat or meetup for a coffee prior to taking on your pet care needs. I enjoy walks rain or shine, would love to play/do nose work with your dog and am happy to help them stay consistent with anything they are learning. Logistics, Flexibility, Scheduling Details: Please note if your return will be late in the evening and requires evening attention, you will need to book an additional day even if I won't be spending the night.

Ruthee dog and house sat for us while we took an extended vacation and we couldn’t have been more pleased with her. She was responsible

Ruthee did a great job house sitting for us . On our meet & greet she asked important questions regarding the care of our pets and they were very comfortable meeting her. We knew then that she was a good fit for our needs. During our trip she was quick to respond to our inquiries on how things were going. She did a great job and we will definitely contact her again for any of our house/pet sitting needs.

Ruthee is a lifesaver for me and my dog Zoe. Zoe is older and can’t make it through the day any more. Ruthee has helped me out countless times when I can’t make it home in time to let Zoe out. Ruthee is very observant, she notices when Zoe is having an issue and will always mentions if she sees something off. Having an older dog, it’s a huge relief knowing I have someone like Ruthee on my side.

Ruthee house-sat and watched our dog last summer and did a great job! She was very responsible and dependable and took great care of our dog. Including multiple walks and outings! Definitely would recommend her.

Information Ruthee M. would like to know about your pet

I am not available to watch pitbulls under 3-4 years of age. Also, if your pets are peeing on carpet and not potty trained, I'm not available to sit. Otherwise I'm wide open! I would like to know the following: 1. How often to they need to potty generally 2. are there bad behaviors and routine training you expect to go in hand with those or to prevent them? 3. How is your dog with other dogs? 4. Where are you comfortable with me taking your dog? 5. Does your dog have a favorite game or way to work out energy & what energy level are they?

A typical day

We would go where it is safe an acceptable to the owner to go near their home and/or by car. I love Mt Tabor dog park and the Willamette Waterfront Park in John's landing.
