About Ruth

Please note: we are only able to petsit cats at the moment. 

Hi, 

My husband and I just moved back to Sydney from Melbourne and would love to keep petsitting here. We have lots of experience pet sitting, as we've done it frequently over the last few years. I love all animals! I've owned cats, dogs, birds and fish and a rabbit in the past. When pet-sitting, I really enjoy getting to know all the different personalities and characters of people's beloved pets. 


A little about me, when I'm not pet-sitting, I'm a support worker for people with disabilities and most recently have been working in a cat cafe. I've always been drawn to caring roles which is why I love petsitting. As a support worker I have had the opportunity to take clients to animal therapy sessions, which is always an amazing experience. I also love anything creative, whether it is painting, drawing, writing, playing music and baking, I love it all. 


I was born in Peru but have been living in Australia for most of my life. Since arriving in the very multicultural Sydney, I've acquired an interest in learning about different cultures, traditions and customs. I guess you could say I'm a people-loving introvert. 


I look forward to meeting you and your pet!

Ruth is an absolute gem! It was evident through her communication that our boy, Emilio was comfortable and at ease. Knowing that Emilio was safe and being taken care of really helped us sleep well at night on our vacation. We will surely be re-booking Ruth.

Thank you Ruth. You're the best! 😀

Ruth is an amazing pet sitter.

Ruth cared for my cat Sam for almost 3 months, before he moved to WA.

She cared for him, played with him, sent regular photos and let us know when there were any changes to his eating habits.

Ruth took such great care for Sam and gave he more attention then I ever do as he is a very demanding cat.

I highly recommend Ruth as a Pet Sitter, and wouldn't hesitate to leave Sam with her for future stays.

Thanks again Ruth
