Ryan is a thoughtful caretaker of animals. He has dedicated his life to cultivating a strong devotion and practice of altruism, demonstrated through his professional and personal life actions. Working in the nonprofit sphere as a farmed animal rights advocate, Ryan has committed his professional life to eliminating the suffering of animals on a global scale. In his personal life, Ryan is a wonderful and caring companion to his cat, Jethro. In observing how Ryan consistently treated Jethro with care and respect, I have, on various occasions, entrusted Ryan with the care of my home and companion animal. Ryan is a person of integrity, he is dependable and trustworthy. I highly recommend Ryan to care for your home and loved ones in your absence.
