*UPDATE* WHY I DO THIS: I’m SO close to hitting my fundraising goal for this month! Just one more client, and I’m there! Let me share why this dog-sitting gig means so much to me. Next year, I’m heading out for a 2-year mission, a calling from my faith to serve God by serving others. For those who don’t know, a mission in my church means volunteering somewhere in the world—maybe a nearby city, maybe across the globe—to do service work. It’s about lifting people up, sharing hope, and showing Christ’s love through actions. It’s all volunteer, so I’m saving every penny to make it happen.
That’s where my love for dogs comes in. I truly believe God gave us these furry, tail-wagging pals to teach us joy, loyalty, and love—lessons I’ll carry into my mission. Every walk, every overnight, every slobbery grin I get while caring for your pups helps me fund this journey. When you book with Ryder’s Rover Come on Over for Dog Hikes, Walks, Overnights, or Pet Care, you’re not just getting someone who’ll spoil your dog with belly rubs (though I’ll do that too!). You’re helping me prepare to serve communities and spread light wherever I’m sent. So, here’s my ask: I need one more client this month to hit my goal. If you have a pet or know someone who does, please spread the word! Thanks for being part of this mission with me.
