Information Ryan G. would like to know about your pet

I am able to accommodate any dogs, but if your dog is used to a large house, our apartment might be too small for them. It's 676 sq ft. Small pets are preferred, but if they're okay, we're okay!

A typical day

My wife and I have a park that is just for our apartment complex, and our apartment building is VERY dog friendly. We can also go for walks down the street if the owner allows. When indoors, we'll definitely play games with any toys you bring, but we'll also run around, get belly rubs, and snuggle if the owner is okay with that. The whole time, I'll be keeping an eye on your pet. I will keep a clean, safe home suitable for a curious young pup, an independent cat, and an older pet that needs an obstacle-free environment.

Pet care experience

I love to take walks, and it'd be great to have a canine companion to walk with me. I can jog with him/her, walk, or just stand around while they go to the bathroom or get some fresh air. I think this could be mutually beneficial for both the pets and for me. Your dog should feel very comfortable with my wife and I because our home is clean and safe and our apartment complex is VERY dog-friendly. I work from home and can therefore be with your dog more hours than most people. I'm an author. Maybe your dog will end up in one of my stories. Just kidding! My wife works full time but will be very energetic when she comes home to a dog. She'll be just as happy as I am to welcome your dog into our home.

I’ve had to schedule at the last minute a couple of times and Ryan has always been able to take care of my dog. He has lots of great experience. I’ll definitely rebook.

Ryan does such a great job taking care of my dog. And we needed to adjust the schedule, he took care of that right away. I’ve rebooked for all of my dog, I highly recommend Ryan.
