Fur babies take a village too!
Pet care experience
**I am fully COVID vaccinated & boostered** Hi there! My name is Ruthie, and I am more than excited to take care of your fur baby. I’ve spent my entire life around animals. I currently have two cats, and am lucky enough to love on my partner’s two collies. I have owned, loved, and outlived several dogs, and find so much joy in caring for and playing with them! Whether you need an afternoon off, are going out of town, or need some extra help during the week, I am ready to step in and love on your furry family members. I have high hopes that when I first meet your pet, my calm and friendly demeanor, along with a lifetime of experience owning and caring for animals, will put both (or all) of you at ease. My goal is to make this process as smooth and seamless as possible for you and your pet :)
Reviews
You are truly a gem!! Thank you so much for stopping in with next to no notice and taking care of the boys. You’re a lifesaver. Can’t recommend enough!!
Ruthie did a great job taking care of Pango and he clearly enjoyed his time with her!
Ruthie is just the petsitter we'd hoped to find for our cat, Libby! Her communication about her visits were much appreciated. We received daily updates and the pictures of our happy pet let us feel comforted she was in good hands. Libby appeared happy and healthy upon our return. Thank you so much!
My puppy, Tejas, was so excited and tired after her walk and playtime with Ruthie! It is amazing to have someone so trustworthy to work with our pets :)
