Safety, trust & environment

I treat each dog I help care for in the same way that we treat our own, while following your instructions for what’s best for your pet. I enjoy taking them for some exercise, belly rubs, enrichment and making sure they have all the snacks they need.

Information Ryan S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or things that would need special attention while walking (loves squirrels? Doesn’t like the Amazon truck or his/her leash being put on?)

A typical day

I love to be active with the pets I walk or watch. Happy to chase or be chased and provide some additional enrichment and fun.

Active dog loving Dad!

Pet care experience

I have been caring for dogs my entire life and my enjoyment for being active alongside a fur friend has extended into my now Dad years! Specialize in big dogs as I know from personal experience of having a 60lb+ pup that they can be a handful sometimes.

Ryan was a huge help taking my GSP for a good walk while I couldn’t do so. Great communication. Will definitely be using him again in the future!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
