Highlights
Pet care experience
Adaptable, Calm & Consistent
I’ve worked with dogs in a professional capacity for over a decade, including managing structured environments where consistency and temperament mattered. That experience shapes how I approach in-home care today: calm, observant, and steady. I adapt well to each home’s environment. Every household has its own rhythm, and I focus on maintaining that rhythm rather than disrupting it. I respect property, keep to designated shared spaces, and treat each home responsibly while I’m there. With animals, I prioritize patience and regulation. Dogs often mirror calm, consistent energy, and I remain relaxed and steady in my interactions. Whether maintaining feeding schedules, reinforcing expectations, or adjusting to unexpected wake-ups, I approach care with composure. I value clear expectations so I can maintain healthy boundaries and provide dependable, consistent care throughout your time away.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I approach every home and animal with calm professionalism and respect. I’m attentive to boundaries, cleanliness, and consistency — whether I’m providing a single visit or longer in-home care. I don’t currently have pets of my own, which allows me to focus fully on the animals in my care. My priority is reliability: safe handling, clear communication, and a steady, grounded presence.
Ratings and reviews
Ryan did an awesome job taking care of our two dogs for a three day trip! We came home to two happy and relaxed pups! We have Ryan scheduled again for a longer stay and have great peace of mind that Bailey and Dakota are in good hands!!
Ryan does a great job with our shy Lucas (80# baby) and the bossy Truffles (thinks she's a 10# pit bull).
Ryan took great care of Blue - as always! Blue is always really happy to see him, and I know he is in good hands. Much appreciated!
Ryan does a great job with our dogs especially our shy Lucas.
Pets were happy and healthy when we returned home! Ryan was very patient with our anxious pittie and we were able to enjoy our vacation with no worries.
Ryan was fantastic with our 3 dogs this week! He kept them happy and well entertained! I would recommend him again and again!

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my week. I maintain a consistent daily routine with flexible hours, and afternoons and evenings are open most days. Feeding, walks, and check-ins happen at reliable times so pets stay comfortable and owners know what to expect.

- Please share any specific routines, medications, behavioral quirks, or sensitivities in advance. The more detail I have, the more seamlessly I can maintain continuity. If your home has particular preferences — plant schedules, lighting routines, package handling, or household expectations — I’m happy to follow clear instructions. I aim to keep both pets and property exactly as you’d expect while you’re away.
