Med Student & Work From Home Couple
Pet care experience
We are a medical student and work-from home couple who have each had pets our entire lives. Ryan has had at least five (up to seven!) dogs at any given time growing up, while Faith spent three years working in a veterinary clinic during college in addition to years of pet ownership (dogs, cats, even hermit crabs!). We have an 8yo Australian Shepherd at home that is our pride and joy and would love to hang out with your pet! Ryan is currently a second-year medical student, which means that any time he isn't in classes, he's at home studying. Faith works full time from home in the communications field, so your pup will almost never be left alone. Our pup, Kaia, is the center of our world, and we have built our schedules around frequent potty breaks, walks, and, of course, snuggles. We would love to have your pet join in! We have a fenced yard and one pup at our single-family house. Our dog, Kaia, is friendly with all dogs and cats and would love a fur-buddy to hang out with. Pets are allowed on the furniture, in addition to the three beds that Kaia has throughout the house (she has no problem sharing).
Reviews
Ryan and Faith always provide excellent service and in this case, on very short notice! Thanks again!
This was LuLu's first experience being away from us overnight. She spent 3 days & 2 nights with Faith & Ryan and made a new playmate with their Aussie Kaia. They said LuLu snuggled with Ryan on the couch while he studied, when she wasn't out exploring their yard. She settled in after the first day and ate well. Faith was with her the whole time, which was good because LuLu has a history of separation anxiety. LuLu appears to have had a good experience. Faith & Ryan had her things organized and ready when we picked her up. They take their responsibility seriously, but I get the impression this is not hard for them. They're bright folks.
Ryan and Faith are like a second family to our son Lucy. She is so happy to see them, and it’s great to know she is happy and safe! They take good care of her and we are lucky to have them as sitters.
This was our Beagle's first time being left anywhere without us. Faith & Ryan were so patient with her separation anxiety. After a couple of hours, LuLu settled in and enjoyed the rest of her day with them and Kaia. We have already booked another pet sit with them.

Information Ryan & Faith M. would like to know about your pet
Before sitting, we would like to know your pets food and potty schedule, friendliness with other animals, exercise requirements, any medications they're on, and any general likes and dislikes that you can share! It's important to us that your pet has a happy time while they're here, so please feel free to share anything that you'd like us to know.
A typical day
We walk our dog daily and will of course bring your pup along (or cat, if they like to walk)! We usually walk around our neighborhood, but walk the greenway often on weekends for a change of scenery. We love to spend time in the backyard playing fetch or just hanging out, so your pet will get lots of outside time.
