Pet care experience

Thoughtful care from a Dog Dad

Hi, I’m Ryan! I’m a Venice local and proud dog dad to Joey, my dachshund. As a dog owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else’s care. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality, routines, and favorite things, following your instructions so they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether they enjoy an energetic walk or a leisurely sniff around the neighborhood, I’m happy to go at their pace. You can expect attentive care, clear communication, and regular updates. I’m also a photographer, so a few cute photos of your pup are part of the experience!

Ryan’s love for animals comes through in the way he cares for Joey. He’s put so much time and patience into raising and training him, and their bond says a lot about his dedication. He’s attentive, thoughtful, and understands that pets are family. I’d feel very comfortable trusting Ryan to care for a pet and would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible, loving sitter.

Schedule

I work from home most days and spend much of my time with Joey, my 5 1/2 year old dachshund and best friend. My flexible schedule means I’m generally available for walks and house sitting mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’m happy to plan around your pet’s usual routine.

Safety, trust & environment

I’ll follow your pet’s routines, respect your home, and keep you updated with photos and messages along the way. If your pet enjoys other dogs, I’d be happy to have Joey join us for walks or company, with your permission and an introduction to make sure they’re comfortable together. If your pet prefers care without another dog around, my fiancée can look after Joey, so I can come on my own and give your pet my full attention.
