About
I've been training since 15 years of age. I've competed in several fitness competitions in the past and love all aspects of training, fitness, health and wellness, and nutrition. I sincerely care about helping my clients reach their goals!! I'm also a posing coach for fitness competitions (and have done contest preps in the past.) I have wpd (women's physique), figure, bikini, bb, and men's physique posing experience. I also can do workout plans, health and wellness coaching, and nutrition plans tailored to a clients needs (if need be)..online training and workouts, also available with weekly check ins (or, multiple check ins if needed). Also, now offering virtual training if needed and virtual nutrition check ins. I’m also venturing/expanding and offering dog (pet) sitting and walking. This is my other love and passion! I have strong compassion for animals (pets) and their well being. I’m true animal lover at heart. (All my life I’ve always had dogs and cats). I’ll care for your fur baby like they are family! 😊 I enjoy helping those get in the best shape of their lives!! I love seeing my clients reach their goals successfully!! And furthermore, improving their self confidence/empowering themselves inside and out! Results take time. However, making the decision to start training and eating right is the first step in the right direction.. I hope that I may help you in that direction...with consistency and time, you'll see results!

Ruth is a godsend with my dog! She knows just how to handle my shy, 75-pound rescue dog to put him at ease and give him the exercise and sniff-time he needs while I am recovering from minor surgery. He comes back exhilarated from his walks with her! Super friendly and conscientious, Ruth is someone I would trust to take care of all my pet's needs if I ever went out of town. She is THAT caring and attentive and understands the way dogs work -- even mine, who gets separation anxiety and alpha tendencies. I am so grateful to have found Ruth who clearly has a big heart for dogs and people and really wants to help where it is needed!!! Thank you SO MUCH Ruth!!!!!

Details: Dog • 1 pet • Providing exercise • Short visit (30 minutes) • Once a day • The pet sitter travels to me

Ruth was amazing!! She watch our cat maci while we were out of town. Maci has bad anxiety and is a scaredy cat of everything. Ruth sent pics and texted us updates every visit. Surprisingly, maci eventually came out and let her pet her which is rare. Ruth fed her, changed her litter box and even brought packages in the house. Will be using her again! Thanks Ruth.

Details: Cat • 1 pet • Giving food and water • Changing litter or bedding • Providing companionship • Short visit (30 minutes) • Once a day • My home, venue, etc.

Ruth is a great trainer! She's very knowledgeable about fitness. She makes you do a variety of workouts to keep you from getting bored while also getting you in shape. I've been with her a month now and I'm already so much stronger. Ruth truly cares to help her clients reach their goals. I highly recommend her.
