Pet care experience

Experienced Pet Sitter

Hi, I'm Ryan! I'm a lifelong animal lover, and I share my home with my dog Jax, who is the heart of everything I do. I got into pet sitting because caring for animals isn't just my work — it's my passion. I'm pet CPR and first aid certified, so your pets are in safe, trained hands whether we're out on a walk, stopping by for a drop-in visit, or settling in for a cozy stay. I have reliable daytime availability and I keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for. Every pet gets treated like family — with patience, playtime, and plenty of love. I can't wait to meet your furry family members!

Schedule

Pet care is my full-time job, so my schedule revolves around your pets! I'm available seven days a week from 8:30 AM to 5 PM for walks, drop-in visits, day care, boarding, and house sitting. I plan my day around each pet's routine — meals, walks, playtime, and rest — and I keep you updated with photos and messages throughout. Because pet care is my livelihood, you can count on consistent, reliable availability and quick responses to your messages.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety and comfort come first, always. I'm pet CPR and first aid certified and trained to handle emergencies calmly. In my home, dogs get a secure, pet-friendly environment with structured routines, plenty of playtime, and lots of affection — plus my dog Jax as a friendly companion (with slow, supervised introductions for boarders). In your home, I follow your pet's routine exactly as you leave it: feeding schedules, medications, house rules, and favorite spots. I use secure leashing and harness checks on every walk, keep a close eye on dogs during play, and send regular photo updates so you're never wondering how your pet is doing.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day starts with morning potty breaks and breakfast on your pet's schedule, then a walk or playtime in my fenced yard. Midday means more play, puzzle toys, and attention — I'm home full-time on weekdays, so nobody waits long between breaks. Evenings wind down with dinner, a final walk, and couch time. Boarders keep their home routine, just with my beagle mix Jax as a buddy.

Tell me your dog's routine, quirks, and medical needs before we start — feeding schedule, medications, triggers, and how they do with other dogs. I'm pet CPR and first aid certified, so flag any health conditions I should watch for. I do best with people-friendly dogs, and slow supervised introductions with Jax keep everyone comfortable. Two days' notice for new clients helps me plan the best care.
