A typical day

Lots of fetch (if they like that), walks, cuddles, training new tricks and any other type of training to the extent of my knowledge. Hiking nearby as long as they have flea and tick medications or collars.

Pet care experience

I have taken care of all kinds of animals, more so dogs and cats. My mother and I used to foster all kinds of dogs before i left For college; anywhere from labs, to Great Danes, to Rottweilers. We currently have a pit-lab mix, a boxer mix and a Great Dane.

Ryan was so helpful with our dog and two cats. Our regular pet sitter had to cancel last minute and Ryan really stepped up and helped us out so much. He even gave our cat medicine so he could feel his best while we’re gone. We will definitely be rebooking with Ryan sometime soon!

Having to choose a random person on-line to stay in the sanctity of your home and treat your animals like family is on the list of “most difficult decisions.” We moved here from out of State and don’t know anyone. We have had to start from scratch in every aspect of life. Finding the right “fit” was a massive stress and undertaking. Word of mouth didn’t apply just moving here. We relied on Rover and we found an Angel. Not to be corny, but to those whose critters are their EVERYTHING- Angel 😇 is our best description. Ryan stayed at our home for ten days. He was gracious enough to come by my home three times before the actual “job” to make friends with my neurotic Pomeranian. So when he did come to stay, it wouldn’t be such a shock to her little mind. Ryan is kind, and a gentleman. I could totally tell he has been around all sorts of dog personalities as he spoke to Peanut on her level. He fulfilled everything asked of him, with no hesitation. I have never been so pleased and so content with a petsitter in my 50 odd years of life. I’ve gone from stressing out about finding a petsitter to stressing out that Ryan retires! To our family, he is irreplaceable. We will use Ryan in the future for everything . Now that we can have a life again and can actually go places together and the places don’t have to be “dog friendly!” Finding the best petsitter is absolutely priceless. Thank you Ryan, I have a new peace in my heart ❤️

Ryan took overnight care of my two large boys, one needs medication and the other has special feeding needs due to a medical condition. He met all of their needs and took the best care of them. It was my first time trusting someone with my boys and it felt so easy with Ryan! He truly cared for them like they were his own, provided consistent updates and pictures, and went above and beyond! Fully recommend him to anyone!!
