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!

Ruthy did a fantastic job with Nova! She was extremely communicative all day. She was right on time to pick her up and drop her off and sent so many cute photos and videos of their day together. I have had poor experiences with leaving Nova in someone else's care in the past, so I was a little apprehensive, but Ruthy's updates put me so at ease. I know my little girl was in great, caring hands. I can't recommend her enough!

Ruthy was amazing with Aria! She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Ruthy kept me updated with photos and was super responsive the whole time. I could tell Aria had a great time and felt right at home. Definitely booking again!

I have used Ruthy several times now to watch my pup, and she has been wonderful every time! She provides excellent care and always sends plenty of photos, showing my dog happily playing and enjoying their stay. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and loving boarding.
