Fostering and pet sitting - retired

Pet care experience

Hi, retired and have one small dog, husband and I enjoy animals but really don't want to commit to another pet, so dog sitting is preferable. I have fostered for over 6 years when I lived in Farmington, now out here in Howell, we have acreage. We walk our dogs several times a day and also have a fenced area. We keep them in our home like our own family pet, no cages unless you prefer one or if we have to leave the house. We are home most of the time and take great care to keep dogs safe. Usually only one dog at a time, sometimes two. Not a kennel, just our home. Dogs are treated like the family pet that they are. We are especially fond of older, slower dogs who need TLC.

Oberon loved being at Becky’s! He was so well cared for and we were sent pictures of him enjoying himself. I’m grateful to have found a trustworthy and kind home/pet sitter.

She was great with our pup! She sent pictures and gave us lots of details of how the stay went. I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with Becky and would definitely do so again.

My dog Mack loved staying with Becky. Great backyard with trails for dog walking which Mack loved.

Thank you again so much for taking care of Pavo. He really enjoyed staying with you and his humans really appreciated the updates on how he is doing during his stay. At no point we felt we had to worry about our furry baby and were able to enjoy our vacation. If we need a sitter again, we will definitely reach out.

Information Becky S. would like to know about your pet

I need to know if they are a fence jumper or a digger. We are vigilant on keeping a dog safe and always ck on them if they are in our fenced yard. Never left alone. Sometimes I sit with them and read if I have suspicion they are a fence jumper.

A typical day

Walking in paths on our 3 acres. fenced in smaller yard if they are the type to just lay in the sun under a tree to relax. They can go in and out many times a day if they prefer.
