Availability
I work entirely from home and rarely leave the house without the dogs, of which I have 2. You can find us at a dog park every day, rain or shine. Exercise is our first priority every morning. After I finish up work, we usually head out again to burn off any excess energy.

About Ryan N.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is paramount. I’m accustomed to dealing with reactive dogs and am always attentive to individual needs. It’s important that we align on your dogs’ unique personality and considerations, as it will help me to keep them safe and provide them with the best experience possible in our journey to becoming best friends. To help you achieve peace of mind during your dogs' stay, I'll provide regular photo updates, so you can can see they're having a great time. Our home environment is often quiet and relaxed. They are always supervised inside and outside the house. Periods of being left alone are rare and short-lived, and they are never left around unfamiliar dogs unsupervised. In those cases, dogs are individually crated or otherwise separated. I also have cameras to monitor their activity.

Information Ryan N. would like to know about your pet
It's very important that I understand your dogs' needs entirely so that I can best understand how to keep them happy and safe. Any notable behavior they have is worth sharing. Their eating routine, health or medicinal considerations, and general level of training should also be communicated. Anything about our typical routine you feel uncomfortable with should always be specified so that I can accommodate as well.
A typical day
Every day, we wake up and take a visit to a local dog park or hiking trail for some exercise. We have a dedicated space in my Subaru Forester known as the “relaxation station” equipped with beds, toys, and towels to keep them comfortable and clean. Once we're home, they get to spend time socializing with me and the other dogs as I work from my laptop. Our home has a large fenced yard and a covered deck space, and the dogs will run, sniff, and sunbathe to their hearts content. Later in the afternoon, we'll often repeat our exercise routine so the dogs can be happy and relaxed until it's time for bed. I feed the dogs twice a day, morning and evening, usually after we get back from exercising. For bathroom breaks, they are either let out into the fenced-in backyard or taken on a leashed walk around the neighborhood. Just let me know your preference! You'll often find us hanging out in the yard on a nice day, enjoying the sun and the shade. We even have a dog pool (regularly filtered for safety). The warm months especially are a lot of fun here!

Pet care experience
Growing up with dogs, I wanted to give them the world. When I adopted my first dog, Partner, he quickly became my world. But I knew he wouldn’t be my last. My second, Frenzy May, came to me 2 years later. Giving dogs the life they deserve is a passion of mine. Our tenets are good habits, socialization, and exercise, and it’s what I provide to any dog in my care.
Reviews
Have used Ryan many times to watch my pup and will continue to. He is awesome!
Mya always has a great time with Ryan. By far the best rover sitter we have used! She’s been there a few times this year and we plan to continue booking with Ryan next year!
Ryan is the absolute best!!! Always lots of love and exercise. I never worry for a minute when my dog is with him.
We’ve used Ryan for over a year. Our pup loves him, and so do we! She always comes back home tired, and we’ve gotten to a point where her tail wags like crazy when we say his or his dogs’ names. She’s truly one of the pack when she’s with Ryan!
