About Ruth

Hello! I am a professional content writer with a big heart looking to give your dear pet some love and attention in my home, or provide care in your own home in Brisbane's inner north.

My motivation to look after your pet is to provide affection and comfort to your darling pet while you are away.

I've worked as a pet sitter for 2 years looking after dogs of all kinds from 2018-2020. Since 2017 I have also owned and cared for dogs (English bull terriers)

I've also had people look after my pets, so I can appreciate the extra things that can make the experience extra thoughtful and supportive.

I'm able to provide lots attention as I can often work from home. If you have a space that I can work from, then I can provide extra love to your dear pets two days in the work week which I can rearrange depending on the days of the sit. I offer additional walking services, am comfortable with medication administration also

Looking forward to meeting you and your dear pet soon!

-anonymized-, 2024-08-14

Ruth is a genuine animal lover. Her gentle and patient approach to our super sensitive large doggo, Rex, put both Rex and me at ease. From the first meet and greet to the overnight homestays at our house, Ruth has been genuine, transparent, communicative and reliable. She has ensured Rex's usual routines are maintained and regular sends pup-date photos. We will certainly be booking her again !
