Pet care experience

Sorry for greeting your pet first!

I've grown up with pets my entire life, mainly dogs and cats. Over the many years of my child and adulthood, I helped care for my parent's dogs (from puppies to senior pups). I also have 15+ years of experience caring for cats. I'm used to both cats and dogs requiring special care and attention or that have various health concerns (ie: administering medication, any type of special diets, k/cal dietary needs, prescription food and more). I have experience with many dog breeds, of all types of sizes and behavioral demeanors. Let my many years of pet care experience shine and allow me to relieve your qualms about being away from your fur babies. In the meantime, tell your Dog I said hi, and whisper spspsps to your Cat for me.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I strive to provide the same level of care that I already provide for my cats and dogs, to your beloved pets. I promise to treat them as if they were my own and provide all the love, attention and affection as is obviously appropriate or needed. For Dogs, I provide your everyday routine care (ie: feeding, refreshing water dishes, providing treats, play and daily exercise/stimualtion as needed). I enjoy taking dogs on longer walks (15-20 mins) when doing drop ins and I have the always provide pertinent visit notes and detailed Rover Cards with all the pictures. For Cats, I provide the same routine care as noted above, just without going on walks (unless you got one of them space suit outdoor kitty backpacks). I enjoy playing with cats of all ages. I really like kittens/younger cats due to their infinite amounts of energy, which are not only amusing but tons of fun! However, I get the most joy by providing attention/playing with older cats who may not receive that much daily stimulation if they are set in their routine.

We booked Ryan last minute to care for our new puppy Auggie for a few hours. He offered right away to meet us beforehand, which was extremely helpful. He was very thorough in his care for Auggie and his updates for us. We’ll definitely book with Ryan again!

Ryan was an amazing cat sitter for Truman and Margarita. He was very communicative and thorough with his visits and left very datailed reviews of his drop ins along with many pictures. You can tell that Ryan really does care for your pets like his own and I would recommend him to anyone in need of a sitter. Thanks Ryan!

Second time with Ryan taking care of my dog bear and he was wonderful. So conscientious, thoughtful and dedicated to doing the best by our pup. I also appreciate how communicative he was, keeping me updated and sharing suggestions regarding bear’s care. Look forward to working with Ryan again.

We had Ryan watch our two cats while we went abroad for about 10 days. He gives detailed reviews of his visit, lots of pictures, and our cats liked him a lot. We will be rebooking with Ryan if he is available for future traveling.

Ryan was an amazing sitter. He was very communicative and my cat seemed to love him. It was my first time away from my cat for an extended period of time and Ryan put all my worries at ease. I would 100% rebook with Ryan.

Schedule

Currently available to do house/pet sitting, dog walking and daily drop ins for morning-mid day visits at any time, however evening dog walking/kitty drop ins may require some minor flexibility. I am well rounded and my only current obligations are work, which is for the 2nd shift (may require evening flexibility on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturday - Off Work Wed/Thur). Other than my set work schedule, my only time commitment belongs to my online Masters degree classes. Which should not interfere with my service offerings.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Ryan can host up to 8 drop-ins per day
Please let me know if your fur baby requires any special attention, has any medical concerns or needs medication administered. Also feel free to advise of any normal behavior or any other special needs or requests to make your pet as comfortable as possible.
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.
