I am currently not boarding dogs in my home but am available to pet sit in yours! Can even schedule some pop in visits throughout the day if your planning a day trip!
Information Ryan P. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has an special needs or instructions I should be aware of. Please let me know if they are reactive or resource guarders. Also any specifics like "nervous around busy streets" or "eats anything in sight" No information is bad information and the more I know of ahead of time the better! I dont shy away from any of this but just good to know ahead of time for safety reasons :) OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION BELOW *I do not charge more for puppies or for specific breeds.* **Sometimes my schedule runs ahead or behind depending on the dogs I have that day. I do try to schedule for around certain time frames (i.e 12pm could be anywhere from 11 30 to 1230/1ish start time. This allows me to give all dogs the same amount of attention and care they need without being rushed. If your pup needs an exact time for medical or other reasons please contact me and we can work something out :) ***I do not use pinch or shock collars. If your pup usually uses one of these please provide an additional option. Preferably a harness. Gentle leaders are acceptable as well but will only be used if necessary. Positive training techniques only. Contact me with any questions prior to the walk or stay. ****I do not accept last minute requests (day of/night before) walking requests. I prefer to have a meet & greet before scheduling services.
A typical day
I love taking dogs to new places. A new park or a hike in the woods is always a good option. Somewhere where a dog can be a dog!

Certified Trainer and Dog Lover!
Pet care experience
Hello! 🐕🐾 Currently have availability for Tues - Thurs 10 30ish (can be flex!) I've taken care of dogs professionally for the past 6 years and am a certified dog trainer (CCTBS). I absolutely love what I do and have no plans of slowing down anytime soon. Safety is my #1 priority with your furry friend with having the best time ever following close behind! I have experience with all different kinds of personalities. From my volunteer work (at a local rescue) with anxious and aggressive dogs to your all around sweet neighborhood pup! My services are not strictly for dogs either! I love all animals and am happy to care for your smaller pets as well! I'm happy to stop by and care for your cats, guinea pigs, reptiles, and whoever else you may be housing! Please reach out with any questions. Cant wait to make some new friends on here!
Reviews
Ryan P. cancelled a booking after the stay began.
So happy to have found Ryan, very reliable and professional
My stranger reactive dog has come SO far with Ryan’s help. He went from growling and lunging from our front porch when he saw Ryan to excitedly greeting him at the door. Every week Ryan has worked patiently with my dog, gradually teaching Bandit to trust him and how to be more brave when confronted with fears and triggers. I can’t stress enough how amazing Ryan is. If I could give him 6 stars I would!
Ryan is reliable and flexible! My dog is so excited to see him every time Ryan comes over :)
