I am a caring, trustworthy and experienced Pawshake pet minder having provided a boarding service for several years mainly for dogs and cats of various ages in my own home in Geelong, Victoria. Prior to that I worked for 2 years for a dog walking/sitting business in Melbourne.
I have always had pets of my own as I love their company but currently, do not have one.
Having recently relocated to my home town of Perth, I would like to offer my services as a house sitter when you're away on holiday, as a dog walker and I can also visit your pet/s during the day while you're at work.
I walk dogs for at least 1 hour unless otherwise instructed by you if they are a little older, have medical conditions or when the weather is hot. My home visits are for 2 hours - playtime and cuddles are definitely included!
I will ensure that your home is securely looked after as well as replenishing pet water bowls, feeding them as required, changing litter trays, watering your plants and garden and putting bins out. I am very respectful of neighbours and lead a quiet life style.
Regular updates are provided to owner's via the Pawshake website or via mobile phone.
I have a current National Police Check which I will provide.
I look forward to meeting you.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. 7 days before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Doggy day care and Dog walks always have a flexible cancellation policy:
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Ruth is fantastic. She really cared about our home and our pets.
Ruth was quick to respond to my request on very short notice. To look after our girl Karma.
( border collie ). In our home while we were away 3 nights.
Ruth is a very genuine and caring lovely lady,from the meet and greet I felt comfortable and sure Karma would be well looked after.
Ruth was beyond amazing, karma adored her.
You can feel very confident and at ease having Ruth mind your pet. We would highly recommend her if wanting exceptional care for your pet.
Have definately had a great experience using Paw shake and would have Ruth look after Karma in the future with no hesitation.
She updated me daily with photos and little messages, which alleviated my separation anxiety.
We came home to an extremely well looked after content fur baby and a clean house too !!
Thankyou again
Ruth. 💐🐾
I can manage specific dietary requirements as needed and administer any oral medications provided, following your instructions.
If professional grooming is required I am also able to drop off and pick up from your regular groomer. Receipts are always provided.
I am not a professional trainer but have been exposed to that environment and have basic skills in relation to walking on lead, socialising, sitting and rewarding with treats if they earn it :). I so enjoy seeing their progress and how proud they are when they achieve it.
They make me smile.
