About Ruth

Until recently I had two dogs, a Parson's Terrier (2004-2022) and a Lancashire Heeler (2007-2023) of my own and have had many pets since childhood as my dad was a vet (now retired). My pets included several cats and dogs and at one point even an African grey parrot!

After the recent loss of my beloved little pups, I rescued a beautiful 5 year old black German Shepherd in July 2023 whose owner had passed away. Within a very short time, I couldn't imagine my life without him! (Just to clarify, he would of course have company if I were to undertake house sitting.)

Anyway I have lots of experience of looking after animals and would be happy to look after yours in your own home. I am also happy to offer dog walking and helping with other little jobs like feeding / watering plants.

PLEASE NOTE: I do not cover areas outside of the CITY of Manchester / Borough of Stockport. 'Greater' Manchester will not be covered as it is usually not practical for me to reach. I would also like to state that if you are going away and you have one or more dogs, that I am not happy leaving them alone overnight so my house sitting service would be more appropriate than one or two visits per day. Thank you.
