Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable Genuine Care!
As a dog and cat owner, I understand the need for appropriate care for my pets. Caring for my family’s dogs and cats since childhood, and taking care of friends pets while they were away on vacation, has given me firsthand experience with daily pet care routines. Additionally through my volunteer work with Rawhide Rescue, I developed valuable skills in working with dogs from all backgrounds, caring for them during the day, and helping them find loving forever homes. I began working with Rawhide Rescue in 2014. Through my connections with the organization I was also involved in caring for cats as well. I’m a part time University Student studying Computer Science. I also work part time managing my own business. I have a lot of free time and I would be happy to care for your pets! Let me know if I can be of any help!

Reliable and robust feline friend!
Ryan O. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Ryan was wonderful with both my dogs! He took great care of them, which made our family vacation completely stress-free. I would highly recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
Ryan recently did drop in feedings for my cat Santi but when Santi unexpectedly had to be taken to the vet, Ryan stepped up. Ryan took the cat to the vet, picked him back up, and administered medication confidently and accurately. Ryan went beyond the call of duty keeping us informed and making sure Santi was comfortable. We were confident that Santi was well-cared for.
Ryan was super! He has excellent communication skills and maintained regular contact and updates. Our cat was happy, healthy and all things in good shape. I'd definitely book him again!
