Our dog has been with Ry's daycare service since 2017. She has always enjoyed all the walks and also playing with her doggie friends. Ry and his crew always communicate via text before pickup and drop off, which helps us to manage our schedules and which we really appreciate. When we travel, we have peace of mind to board Luna with them--knowing she is familiar with the trainers, the routines, and her pack mates. We are very happy with Ry's services over the years. Everyone on Ry's team we have encountered has always been friendly and professional.

"We have been huge fans of Ry's pet services since we got our puppies in 2021. His boarding, daycare and pet behavioral services are all topnotch.
Customer service has been excellent too. They respond quickly, communicate proactively and clearly, and were even willing to accommodate a last minute change on our parts. I love how calm my dogs are when they return and how excited they are to be picked up."

"I cannot sing enough praises for Ry the Pet Guy, someone who has been an integral part of our journey with Stella since she was just a young pup. Our 11.5-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer, Stella, recently faced a troublesome leg infection that required daily dressing changes. With both my wife and I working, we were in quite the predicament until we found Ry.
Ry's commitment to Stella's well-being went above and beyond our expectations. He not only transported her to and from the vet's office but also made sure to lift her in and out of the van with the utmost care. It's evident that he genuinely loves what he does, and it shows in the way he treats his furry charges.
We can't thank Ry enough for all the care and compassion he has shown Stella during her time of need. If you're in search of someone who will treat your furry family member with the same love and care as you do, look no further than Ry the Pet Guy. He's a true gem in the world of pet caregivers, and we wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone seeking the best for their beloved pets. Thank you, Ry, for being there for Stella, from her earliest days as a young pup to now, and for being such an incredible source of support and peace of mind during this challenging time. You're simply the best!" 🐾❤️

“Ryland and his team always take great care of my dog. I'm a very particular dog mom and I don't trust just anyone to watch my dog, Fleuf. In fact she has a whole vitamin regimen that would probably go over any regular dog sitter's head and she wears shoes on walks, so it takes a committed team to ensure my dog is taken care of exactly the way I like. I also love that Ryland and his team work on my dog's training and leash walking skills while she is there. Fleuf always comes home so exhausted from all the fun she has with Ryland and his team. Thanks Ryland!!”

"Ry and team are so thoughtful with their dog care. This is the *ONLY* dog boarding place where our pup gets excited to go with them - all other places we've tried, our pup gets scared and nervous, breaks your heart as a dog mom! Instead, when Ry and his guys show up, our little girl cannot wait to jump in and head off to a weekend with her friends - did I mention they pick up your pup too? So convenient!
Better still, Ry takes magazine quality photos and will send them to you while you're away from your beloved pup. Are they the least expensive option? Of course not, but the quality of care, the love they show these dogs, and the piece of mind of knowing our girl is well cared for while we're away makes it completely worth it. Thank you, Ry and team!"

"Our two dogs love it here SO MUCH! The first time they were picked up they were hesitant and didn't want to leave our yard. Now, they freak out in the best way when they see the van, knowing they are about to go have some adventures with their other pup friends :) they always come home happy and worn out, a sign of a fun day. On the human side, I love the pick up and drop off service, as well as how easy they are to communicate with and book. We are so happy we found Ry and the crew!"

"Highest quality daycare and boarding you will ever find! I don’t trust any other place with my precious fur baby! Safety is their utmost priority. Your dog will get 4 miles of walking with the pack on a daycare outing. Ry and his team carefully screen all dogs for correct group placement."

Ry The Pet Guy and his team have made our trips abroad much less stressful! We know that our precious little dog is safe, cared for and relaxed while he is with Ry. All the staff are very attentive and send us pictures of our wee pup while we are away. Ry and his staff provide a calm environment for all of the dogs. We trust Ry and his team for not only walks but longer stays too. Our dog comes home happy and pampered!

As someone who had never left my dog alone, I was understandably nervous about leaving him in the care of strangers. But from the moment I dropped off my pup, Indy, I knew he was in good hands.
They even helped Indy overcome his fear of bigger dogs, and gave me tips on how to be the best owner possible. When I picked Indy up, he was better adjusted than when I left him, and eager to return to RTPG. Their facilities are spotless, they come and pick up your pupper and drop him off for daycare as well. If you're looking for a place where your dog can be safe, happy, and have an adventure, look no further than Ry The Pet Guy.

Ryland and his team are amazing! They take such good care of my fur baby, Harry, who can be an odd ball, and frankly, a handful. They understand dog behavior so well, and give my dog so much love and attention. He gets so excited when he knows that he is going to stay the weekend with Ry and team.
Ryland has also done extensive behavioral training to be a trusted dog trainer. His passion for learning new tools and approaches impressed me, and made me feel at ease when I first began using him. I am so grateful to Ry the Pet Guy and team for being part of our pack and trusted caretakers.
