About Ruth

Experience: 7 yrs

I have had various pets all throughout my childhood leading up to this point in my life. I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, frogs, fish, horses, goats, chickens, rabbits, hamsters, snakes and various others. Currently I have in my home two dogs, cat who is currently pregnant, my ball python, and a beautiful beta fish! I have taken care of other people's houses, pets, and I have also nannied and babysat children. Years ago I bred my lovely dog and cared for her and her puppies. I have also volunteered at a horse stables and learned different training and riding techniques, along with the tasks of cleaning them, feeding them, and mucking out their stalls. That family also bred goats and I occasionally took care of them as well. I have worked on various farms and with various farm animals including chicken, sheep, dogs, cats, and goats. I am such a huge animal lover of all shapes and sizes.

Ruth is amazing, we all love her. A few of the things I appreciate the most, I often find her feeding the kids lunch and reading them storybooks. She is very creative, always playing imagination or coming up with some art project for the kids. She takes the time to explain things to the kids on their level, teaches them, and is extremely patient. She appreciates the outdoors and always makes an effort to take the kids outside, hiking, walking, and exploring. She is aware of the foods she pulls out for lunch, always feeding them balanced meals. It's truly amazing to have someone who can jump in and do what I wish I had more time to do. She's very dependable and has incredible communication skills. We would highly recommend her to anyone.
