About Ruby

Hey there! My names Ruby, Im an experienced and reliable pet carer. 

I have been looking after pets all my life. From fish to rabbits and cats to mice. As someone intrusted with an important part of your family, my top priority is providing exceptional care and peace of mind while you are away. I offer a range of services to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and safe. 

Whether you need me to visit your pets at home while you work, provide some peace of mind while you travel, or make sure your dogs are getting in some exercise, i'm here to help. I can provide feeding, exercise, medication administration, daily check ins with you, and plenty of love and attention. I work from home full time, so my schedule is flexible. I can also work around your schedule for dog walks, including how long your dog needs for stimulation. Generally I walk a minimum of 40 minutes, and increase from there depending on your dogs needs. I have 3 cats and two dogs myself so I know how anxious you can feel leaving them. But I'm here to help make the experience easy and stress free. 

I understand that every pet had unique needs and personalities, I'll work closely with you to make sure my service fits you and your pets requirements. Need some plants watered? mail collected? Make the house look lived in while you're gone? I'm happy to do any extra bit's to help keep your mind focused on your vaccation instead of stressing about your house! 

I'm experienced in taking care of Cats, Dogs, chickens, rabbits, mice, rats, and fish.

Ruby is wonderful with my Poppy, I highly recommend her to anyone who has to go away for a few days and needs someone to look after their beloved furbaby.
