Pet care experience

Your best friend is my top priority

I have previously cared for dogs as large as a Great Pyrenees and as small as a Yorkshire Terrier. Young pups are some of my favorites, but there's a place in my heart for every furry canine I meet. I'm an active person and enjoy walking and/or running with active dogs, though I'm equally fond of cuddling and attending to older and/or less agile doggos. Your best friend will be well loved when in my care. Since I work from home, I am available for last minute check-ins and housesitting! Have questions for me? Please feel free to reach out. Need someone to care for your other 4-legged pets? I'm a cat person, have cat-sat for many, and previously volunteered at a cat shelter (in the kitten room, no less).

Safety, trust & environment

I follow your lead in terms of pet care preferences (ex: if you want me to crate your pup at the end of a visit), and I am very respectful of your home, leaving it in the same condition as when I entered. I listen intently to you during meet-and-greets to ensure that your pets are receiving my optimal care.

Ruya was incredible! She took excellent care of my cat, Penny. She sent pictures and updates which I appreciated so much. She was communicative throughout the entire sitting and left my apartment very neat. She is very kind and easy to trust!

10/10! Ruya is the best. Our 3 pups were very well taken care of and Ruya went over and beyond.

We had a great experience with Ruya! She took incredible care of our crew including a high-energy puppy, an elderly miniature pinscher with anxiety, and a very shy cat. All of them were calm, content, and clearly well-loved when we returned. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell how much love and dedication Ruya puts into her work. On top of that, the house was clean when we got back. We’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter. I have already booked her for a future sitting

Ruya took great care of our girls and our home. She sent updates and pictures throughout our entire trip — there was no question that our girls were being loved on and well cared for while we were away.

Thank you so much!!! Perfect amount of communication and stayed home with our dog the whole trip. Very reliable, timely and willing to help. Our very prone to anxiety dog was calm when we got home!

Ruya is my first choice for a pet sitter. She loves our cats about as much as we do. Imminently reliable. Smart and capable. She’s watched our guys countless times, and they are always less upset at our leaving whenever Ruya is around.
