Teaching & dogs = my passions

Pet care experience

I teach in West Bloomfield, so when school's out or there's a break in the action, I look to bring in some side money in the best way possible. As you can imagine I'm very flexible with my hours and will almost always be available during standard business hours when other people are at their 9-5s. Happy to sit dogs and cats! The dog in my profile picture is my parents' red fox lab Maggie, who just turned 4 years old. I've regularly watched and cared for her at my parents' need since she was a little 10-pound nugget her first week home. I've handled everything from Boston Terriers to St. Bernards to 4 week-old kittens, so I look forward to giving your pet excellent care!

Ryan watched Murphy for several overnights. He was very reliable, flexible and communicated frequently. We felt Murphy was well taken care of and at ease with a new person. I would highly recommend Ryan!

Ryan is very conscientious and did a great job with my dogs and communicating with me.

Ryan was on top of everything we talked about with taking care of our 9 mth old puppy Moose. The meet and greet before the actual sitting was great. We 100% recommend Ryan. We will definitely use him again.

Ryan’s been awesome with our 4 month old puppy. Always checks in with us and let’s us know how he’s doing when he stops by while we’re at work. Highly recommend

Unfortunately I cannot watch pets in my own home as my association won't allow dogs. But I will take great care of your home and pets while you're gone.

Information Ryan R. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. However, before any stay, check-in, or walk, I would like to stop by and "meet" the dog to make sure everything is okay. I have a stellar track record with dogs, but it's always better to double check beforehand and calm their nerves a bit.

A typical day

I'm happy to take your dog to a local park, go for a regular walk, play in the yard, etc. Whatever they're into, I'll make sure they're happy.
