Availability

I currently work full-time in a community-based job where I have the flexibility to create my own schedule. I like to tailor my schedule around my needs for the week, with weekends being when I have the most availability. My current families prefer that I stay in their home, and I’m open to doing the same with other families as well

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my client's home, I make sure to follow any specific instructions or routines the family has established. I ensure pets are fed on time, given fresh water, and get the appropriate amount of exercise and attention. I also monitor their health, administer any needed medications, and keep the environment safe and clean. If there are specific needs or requests for the pets, I prioritize those to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in the absence of their owners

Information Ryan B. would like to know about your pet

It is imperative I know any allergies your pet might have, their temperament and interaction with other animals and any special needs your pet might have.

A typical day

For dogs, throwing a ball or playing tug-of-war with a rope can be great exercise. For cats, feather wands or laser pointers for chasing fun. Taking dogs on new walks to explore different routes or nature trails. Cats will have supervised outdoor time in a secure environment like a backyard or a catio.

Paws-itively Caring Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

What sets me apart as a sitter is my experience, versatility, and special skills. Not only do I currently dog sit and house sit for three families on an as-needed basis, but I also bring a wealth of experience in handling dogs of all ages and needs. I’m skilled at training puppies, which includes basic obedience and socialization techniques. Additionally, I’m comfortable with senior dogs, providing them with extra care and attention to meet their specific health and mobility needs. My commitment to understanding each dog’s unique personality and routine ensures they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you're away.

Our first time using Ryan since moving to the area and he was fantastic! Gave us daily updates on our dogs and the house was spotless when we got home. Our boys can be a lot so finding a good sitter is hard but we would definitely use him again!!

This review is overdue! Ryan was awesome! Our 2 guys are a handful. Winston the shorter of the 2 is the ring leader. Whatever he does, the other one follows. And Ryan handled Winston like a G! From the moment Ryan walked in the door, Winston was at ease with him, which it usually takes him longer to warm-up to someone. For that alone, is the reason we’ll be using Ryan again

We are so appreciative Ryan could last minute accommodate our request. We were desperate to find someone a week out from our trip as our normal dog sitter cancelled on us, and he was able to spend the weekend at our house. Our animals were well taken care of and he left our house in great shape! He even washed the bedding and took out the trash which was so nice. I definitely would rebook. Thanks again!!

We can’t say enough good things about our experience. After having a difficult experience with a previous sitter, we were pretty anxious about leaving our pets again, but he completely put our minds at ease. Our dog and cats were clearly well cared for, communication was great, and our home was in perfect shape when we returned. The peace of mind we had while we were away was priceless. We’ll absolutely be booking with him again in the future.
