Beware! The short story is that Ryan came in to my home at 12:30 am and drugged my dog with an old bottle of Trazodone that he found after going through my medicine cabinet, which he left in a different place with the top completely off. He did this so he could have people over, as confirmed by my door sensor that shows peoples coming in and out between 12:30- 3 am. He or one of his guest then threw up all over my couch, and made a mad dash to the bathroom where they left a trail leading from the couch directly to the toilet. After arriving home, I had to rush my dog to the hospital because he was hiding under the bed and was barely able to walk or even hold up his head. The vet agreed that he looked like he had been drugged and shared that he was also severely dehydrated, and his blood work showed that his glucose levels were off the chart due to stress. Ryan stayed with my dog for four days and never once told me he was sick. He texted me a message as he was leaving, with an update on my dog, including that was great, had had water and eaten and slightly added in that my dog had thrown up on the couch and he tried to clean it the best he could, but the stain wasn’t coming out. I was confused because not only was my dog not supposed to be on the couch, he, like every other dog, coughs up their throw up so it takes a minute and he would’ve jumped off the couch once he started dry heaving. But I trusted Ryan, and told him it was fine, I’ll just shampoo it when I get home. I assumed it was a little thing of dog throw up. I got home to my couch that was completely destroyed, and covered in what looks like regurgitated red wine with chunks still present. There was even throw up on the toilet, apparently in four days while drugged out of his mind, he toilet trained my dog. This man is dangerous, I told him he could stay at his house and just walk my dog because he’s pretty low maintenance, he shared that he was going through divorce so he would rather stay at my place, I obliged and said please make yourself comfortable. He’s denied everything and i just continue to add that my dog was so incredibly sick for four days that he did all of this damage, without ever telling me that my dog was sick. Whatever you do not let this man around your animal or in your home.

Ryan was quick to respond to our booking inquiry, and came over for a “meet and greet” with us and our precious Chiweenie, Emdub. Emdub is ferocious toward strangers, but Ryan’s calmness and patience won the day. Ryan house sat for 6 days and both he and Emdub clearly enjoyed each other. Ryan is confident, responsible, and an active communicator. We were exceptionally pleased and will call on him again when we travel.
