Information Ruthy E. would like to know about your pet

Aphrodite and Atticus are well-socialized. If you're booking boarding or house sitting, I’ll make sure our pets are a good fit before confirming, or I can provide care in your home if preferred. Somethings that are good to note is: Your dogs temperament Likes and dislike (I.E doesn’t like cars or cats) If your pup is food or human possessive Etc

A typical day

I set up enrichment activities and ensure proper exercise to fulfill your dogs needs. My objective is to keep your pets happy, healthy and active while in my care. I provide both physical and mental stimulation for your puppy daily.

Pet care experience

**About Me** Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 17 years of personal experience caring for dogs. I have two wonderful pups of my own—Aphrodite and Atticus—who have taught me so much about different personalities, routines, and care needs. I currently have open availability for walks, drop-ins, daycare and pet sitting. I walk my dogs three times a day and know how important consistency and exercise are for a happy, healthy pup! I’m always looking to expand my breed knowledge and training skills, so I approach every dog-sitting experience with patience, love, and a desire to learn. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend!

Nova loves staying with Ruthy! When they first met, Nova was hesitant to hop in the car with her. Now she jumps right in, ready to spend the day together and hang out with her new friends. I'm sure she is already looking forward to her next visit. :)

Ruthy was amazing! This was my first time using a pet sitter, so I was a little nervous, but she quickly put my mind at ease. She sent lots of updates with photos, videos, and thoughtful feedback throughout the stay. She was attentive, patient, and clearly experienced with dogs, taking extra care to help my shy puppy settle in. She also provided plenty of walks and off-leash time to keep her happy and active. Wasabi came home clean and well cared for. I’m so glad I found Ruthy and will definitely book with her again. I highly recommend her!

Ruthy is the best! Our dog, who is not the biggest people person, loves Ruthy. Ruthy takes such great care of him and sends tons of pics and videos

Ruthy is amazing! She is so attentive to our dog and is even training him while he’s with her. We plan on hiring Ruthy as our primary sitter.
