Hi, I’m Ryan! I’m the owner of Snout & Paw, and I’ve been caring for dogs professionally for more than four years. What started as something I simply loved doing turned into hundreds of bookings, lots of dogs I’ve gotten pretty attached to, and eventually Snout & Paw.

I know leaving your dog with someone new can be a little nerve-racking, so I try to make things as easy and comfortable as possible for both you and your pup. I like getting to know each dog’s personality, routine, favorite things, and little quirks so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar.

I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from high-energy pups who could play all day to seniors who are perfectly happy taking things slow. I’m also comfortable with anxious or reactive dogs, medications, special feeding routines, and dogs who just need a little extra patience before they warm up.

I’m big on communication, so you can expect plenty of photos and updates while your dog is with me. I want you to be able to relax knowing they’re happy, safe, and getting plenty of attention.

More than anything, I genuinely love getting to know the dogs I care for and building a relationship with them over time. Every dog is a little different, and figuring out what makes them happiest is one of my favorite parts of what I do.
