About Ruth

Kia ora my name is Ruth. 

I live in Wainuiomata and I work in the CBD. Prefer local jobs Hutt Valley, Petone on the train line so if I can get to work without too much bother. I also appreciate bookings that are a few weeks ahead of a long weekend. I will try to remember to block out dates when I am going away, but sometimes do forget, so unless you give me a lot of notice you may be disapointed. 

I have looked after rescue and older pets with special needs and happy to prepare special meals or give medication. I am able to care for small to medium sized dogs and will take them for a walk at least once a day winter or summer..Cannot walk large heavy dogs due to having my shoulder dislocated in the past. 

You are welcome to call me using messenger and do a visual check on your pets while you are away. I am very well house trained for a human and will treat your home and pets with upmost respect and care. I was taught to leave a place the same or better than I found it.

I understand that your pets are extended members of your family and you are very attached to them. I treat them like VIPs and make sure they get a lot of attention. I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies.

Ruth took great care of Keedy, including taking him on an adventure to the beach. She was communicative and took daily photos, and left the house super tidy. Would highly recommend Ruth to look after your dog.

Ruth took great care of our house and our dog while she was recovering from surgery. Excellent communication, as well. I would absolutely recommend her!

I have had a cat for most of my life. I am less experienced with dogs but love them too. I have not lived in my own home for over a year so I cannot have pets and miss them so pet sitting is a great option and I enjoy a change of scenery from time to time.
