Pets

I have a deep love for all animals

Pet care experience

As someone who grew up with many dogs, I had to regularly take care of them and make sure they were safe, fed and clean. I also lived with a cat for 7 years and had to give her ear medicine for one of those years. I have also worked front desk at an animal hospital for 1 year. 2019- 2020. ( Pittsford animal hospital) I whole heartedly love animals and can't wait to meet yours!

Ryan is so kind and patient. One of our dogs is very timid, and being away from us stresses her. He took his time with her and she warmed up enough to accept a belly rub and a walk! He was immediately loved by our easy going boy. He treated them each the way they needed to gain their trust. We highly recommend Ryan!

Ryan did a great job watching my dog and 2 kitties while I was on vacation. Everyone was happy and healthy when I got home and the house was in good order. Thank you!

Unfortunately, my husband and I would give Ryan a 6 out of 10 on the house sitting he provided us. We gave him a pet sitting guide so he would know what to expect when watching our two kittens. We also told him up front that we would prefer that he stay the night at his place. In the end, he only saw our kittens for (maybe) 3 hours on the first day, did fine on the second day but asked to stay the night due to his availability, and then couldn’t see the cats until 2pm the final day, which turned into him stopping by at 3pm instead. We wish he would have been upfront about his availability because he was only there for half the time. And we came home to a place that was messier than we left it.
