“Ruth was hired to walk my Chihuahua, Nyla, on a regular basis while I am at work. I liked her so much in our meet & greet that I cancelled the other appointments I had set to look for the right dog walker. She is on time consistently, sends great updates and my dog LOVES HER! I fully trust her with access to the house and with my pup. Will be using her consistently moving forward.”

7. Alex e.
About: I have helped old dogs in the water, making sure they can swim, or at least tread water, while ensuring they stay afloat. I have taken care of dogs from year-old puppies, to old ones who need a little assistance getting up and down. I am always ready to go on a nice long walk, or just stay in and relax. I am available for boarding daily, with little notice necessary. I am at home full-time, and am ready and able to take care of your open whenever needed. I have a yard with no fence, and live on a lake with a dock. I do have 2 cats, but are very used to larger animals, and friendly with dogs. They can be restricted if necessary. I can easily crate your dog, if and when it is needed. I am also very good with cats, and have no issues if they get nervous or frightened.

Jon is a college student living off campus in a house and has a dog there to take care of by walking the dog, feeding him and playing with him. Jon is very conscience, and responsible, I believe he would make a very good pet sitter.”
