Pet care experience

Your Pet’s New Best Friend

I’ve been around dogs and caring for pets for most of my life, including having a dog of my own. I’ve also cared for dogs for friends, family, and others who have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and look after their pets while they’re away. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I make it a priority to follow each owner’s instructions closely. Whether it’s going for walks, keeping them company, playing, feeding, or simply making sure they’re comfortable and happy, I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I give my own.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any routines your pet is used to. I’m very attentive when walking dogs and entering or leaving the home, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is well cared for. I like to treat your dog just like how I would want someone to care for my dog.

Ryan is the kindest, most professional pet sitter out there! My dogs are always so excited when he comes around because he's so sweet and patient with all of the pooches. Hire Ryan for a dandy, skilled pet caregiver!

Ryan did a great job with my puppy. He was very respectful of our space and made sure to send us updates of our pup! We were nervous of leaving our puppy for the first time and Ryan made the experience great. I would recommend him for anyone’s pet!

For as long as I've known Ryan he just has a way with any animal. He is extremely loving and attentive to his own dog and has spread that love towards other animals. He has house sat many times and is very trustworthy to keep up with the animals schedule and give them attention. Ryan is an awesome communicator as well. He checks in consistently and is quick to respond. Would definitely recommend him to care for your pets!

Ryan is incredibly attentive and kind to my golden doodle Clementine. He walks her for me three times and a week and she is so excited every time. He takes his time, he makes sure she is clean, and he even brings her favorite treats! Ryan has become a friend of our family and my dogs favorite person. We are truly so grateful to have him!

Ryan is great with dogs and someone I would absolutely trust with my own. He’s responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. He’s attentive on walks, patient, and makes sure dogs are comfortable and well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!

I will start off by confirming the thing that is probably most important to you as a fellow pet owner - In my experience, Ryan cared for my little mini golden doodle thoroughly, punctually, and reliably. Full stop. This has always been the thing I’ve cared about the most, and he has done it with flying colors time and time again. There is also, as it happens, something else that is also separately true - Ryan loves animals of all kinds (especially dogs). Ryan has a sprawling fresh water fish tank, a large Border Collie, and a myriad of other zoological dependents. Ryan simply loves (and invites) the extended tending-to of the well-being of animals. That’s just who he is, and that’s just what he likes. Ryan will at the very least take care of your pet. But, I assure you, he will also engage with him/her, and earnestly enjoy seeing him/her thrive in the moments that you are away. I give Ryan a confident 5/5 stars.
