Home
Information Ruthie D. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs, quirky habits or favorite things. Does your pet have separation anxiety? Toy or food aggression? The more I know about your pet the better! Proof of current canine vaccination is preferred for first time clients & can be reciprocated for my dog. This ensures a safe & healthy environment for all pets.
A typical day
Your dog will have lots of stimulation and supervision in my care. They will receive play time, fresh sniffs, puzzles, enrichment games & well-earned naps. Toys, snuffle mats, puzzles, balls, frisbees, sticks and squirrel chasing are all available! I pay attention to the behavior & demeanor of your pet & adjust my care accordingly. If your dog is energetic, they will typically come home happy & tired. If your dog is more chill, they will typically come home enriched & content. If your dog is anxious, they will typically come home relaxed & calm.

Reviews

Moonshine was happy and tired from playing when I picked her up. I will definately bring Moonshine to board here when I am in Eugene again. Ruthie is flexible, responsive, and very attentive to our needs.

Dante had a BLAST with Welly at Ruthie's!

Ruthie instantly earned my trust for watching Marlin. Ruthie is a compassionate, attentive, and detail-oriented human who has a clear and natural intuit for dogs, and adores and respects them as the whole, wonderful beings that they are. It was impossible to miss that she held Marlin’s complete and total admiration when I came to pick him up. If that weren’t enough evidence, Ruthie’s wonderful updates and beautiful photos of Marlin clearly having the time of his life would be! Ruthie, thank you so much for your friendship to Marlin, and your understanding. it’s meant a lot. We’ll be happy to see you again soon!

Ruth was amazing with our dog, Lily! She kept Lily happy and active with fun games, walks, and plenty of belly rubs. We loved the frequent updates and great photos she sent — it was so reassuring to see Lily having such a wonderful time. It’s clear Ruth truly cares, and Lily can’t wait for her next visit with Ruth and Welly! Thank you!
