Fur-ever here to care

🐾 Fully Licensed • Fully Insured • DBS Checked • Full-Time Pet Care Professional 🐾 Hi, I’m Ryan, and welcome to Ry’s Pet Care! I’m a fully licensed home boarder, fully insured, and work full-time in pet care, allowing me to dedicate my time and attention to caring for dogs every single day. My goal is simple—to provide a safe, loving, home-from-home environment where your dog will be treated as part of the family. Having grown up with dogs and other pets, caring for animals has always been second nature to me. Nothing makes me happier than building trusting relationships with dogs and giving owners complete peace of mind while they’re away. My beautiful Beagle, Ivy, was my world. Caring for her throughout her life, particularly during her later years when she required regular medication due to seizures and a brain tumour, taught me patience, compassion and the importance of tailoring care to each individual dog. She sadly passed away in October 2024, but caring for other people’s pets has become a wonderful way of honouring her memory. As I don’t currently have any pets of my own, every boarded dog, pet I sit for, or walked dog, receives my full attention without needing to compete for space or affection. Whether your dog loves long walks, exploring new smells, playing in the garden, relaxing on the sofa or simply sticking to their familiar routine, I’ll adapt my care to suit their individual personality and needs. I’m licensed to provide home boarding and have developed comprehensive welfare, safety and infection control procedures to ensure every dog enjoys a safe and comfortable stay. I also hold Pet First Aid certification, maintain detailed care records, and always prioritise each dog’s physical and emotional wellbeing. Communication is incredibly important to me. During your dog’s stay, or my sit, you’ll receive regular updates, together with plenty of photos and videos, so you can see exactly how they’re getting on and enjoy following their little holiday while you’re away. Whether your dog needs medication, has specific routines, dietary requirements or simply enjoys lots of cuddles and company, I’m always happy to accommodate their individual needs wherever possible. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, and I never take that responsibility for granted. My aim is for every dog to leave happy, relaxed and excited to return, while every owner feels confident they’ve found someone who genuinely cares. If you’d like to arrange a Meet & Greet or have any questions at all, I’d love to hear from you.

Ryan looked after our dogs and cats whilst we were away for my graduation. We got lots of pictures and updates and when we returned the dogs were very settled and relaxed. We will definitely book with Ryan again!

Ryan was an absolute lifesaver, and was amazing with the cats, even the one who barely tolerates people he's known for years appeared for him! Cannot recommend him highly enough

Ryan has been a great house/dog sitter. He bonded quickly with my three Great Danes and they became quite attached to him. Feeding and exercise schedules were closely followed and the house kept clean.

Dog Walking • Jun 02, 2026

Ryan walked our two large dogs while we were away, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Before the booking, we met with Ryan so he could get to know the dogs and discuss their individual needs, which immediately gave us confidence that they would be well looked after. We loved receiving the daily updates and photos from their walks. It was clear from the start how much Ryan genuinely cares about the dogs and enjoys spending time with them. Ryan was always quick to respond to messages and made us feel completely at ease while we were away, knowing our dogs were in such capable hands. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Ryan again and will definitely be using his services in the future. Thanks, Ryan

As always Ryan was brilliant. Hobo is a big challenging dog, but Ryan is so good with him and Hobo absolutely loves Ryan. Hobo went with him and his family to the seaside and had a wonderful time. I am so pleased we have found such a great sitter, it makes it so much easier when we are away.

Safety, trust & environment

When staying in your home, I will bring my own food and toiletries, I can also bring my own bedding if required, and even a single or double blow-up bed. I will only require water and electricity and will return the home to you as you left it for me. When boarding, your pets become part of our family, my aim is to make them feel as comfortable as they would in their own home. Your pet is my top priority, so please make me aware of their routines, preferences and training techniques/keywords and I will ensure these are kept to. I know how it feels to leave your pet(s) when you are away, constantly thinking about how they are and what they are getting up to! So, rest assured, I will take plenty of photos and keep you updated as much as you would like. I understand it is a big decision to leave your pet in a new environment, or to invite someone into your home and look after your pet and belongings! Therefore, I always recommend a meet-and-greet (at no extra charge), and am available to message or call with any questions to help build a rapport.

A typical day

Indoor and outdoor play is more than welcome! I have lots of energy myself and keep on top of my fitness, so running around on a field playing fetch, tug-of-war and anything else your dog loves is never a problem! I also run for cardio fitness, so if you have a dog that accompanies you on a jog, then they can join me too.
