Safety, trust & environment

Not knowing where you are can be stressful for pets. I do my best to make sure your pet is at ease and has fun while you are away. I live near a lake and trails that make for some great walking. If your pet needs to be in a kennel while sleeping that is no problem, otherwise they are welcome on the furniture like my own pets are. My dog is very friendly, non-dominant, and loves having a buddy to romp around with. The cat will ignore them.

Please let us know if your dog has any special needs or care requests and we are happy to accommodate! We are fine with administering medication and have lots of experience with dogs that may need additional care.

A typical day

Every day can be an adventure. From playing outside to going to our nearby park for smells there’s never a shortage of things for your pets to do while here. We work in scheduled playtime as well twice a day. Once early before noon and again in the early evening.

This was our first time using Ryan and we will definitely be repeat clients! Our pups are usually pretty anxious, but they were immediately comfortable with Ryan and his pups. Thank you Ryan!

Ryan and his family were very nice. Traveller can be a handful and I hope things weren't too disruptive for them. He was considerate, polite, accessible, and really easy to work with. If I need another sitting job at any time, I'll ask for him first. He's just a nice guy who gets dogs and took care of mine at a time I needed it, and that was great.

We are grateful of Ryan and Family for taken such good care of our Sandy girl. We also appreciated the updates and pictures throughout the day. Seems that our girl had a great day. We will definitely rebook with him, when we’re in need of a sitter

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
