Doting Pet Sitter Extraordinaire

Pet care experience

I have had over 20yrs experience pet/house sitting and have impeccable references. If you are looking for a responsible person to shower your 4~legged companions with oodles of TLC, look no further. I am available to care for your pet(s) at your home or mine. I live on a 50 acre property with lots of room to romp and exercise on or off leash. I also live across from a 2000+ acre recreation park/sanctuary with mikes of hiking trails for additional exercise and adventures. I am a semi-retired RN so your pet(s) would not be left alone for any length of time. I look forward to basking in their company and doting on them 24/7. Please contact me for any questions. Thank you for your consideration. ~Claudia I am a retired RN so your dog(s) would have me to keep them company all day along with our own 2 dogs (4 yr old Basset Hound and 8yr old English Springer Spaniel) who both neutered very dog friendly males. We have a lovely fully fenced 8+ acres property and comfy home for your dog(s) to have the run of along with our 2 dogs.

Our pup loved her week with Claudia. From drop off to pick up, she was well cared for and loved while we were traveling. Claudia was very responsive while we were away and we were able to travel worry-free. Claudia is obviously passionate about animals and was sure our dog had all of the exercise and attention she needs. We highly recommend Claudia. She’s a little more expensive…but worth every penny.

Claudia took care of doggy and house while vacationing. She sent us updates and videos of Pesto enjoying himself with his friend Springsteen. He had recent visits to dog parks and even places we have never ventured to! Pesto had his own vacation. It was great to get away knowing our pup and home were protected.

Claudia has taken care of our dogs for several years. She is very trustworthy and reliable. Claudia stayed in our home when she provided dog care for our Springer and Labrador Retriever. When we left our dogs in Claudia's care we could leave with no worries or guilt for traveling away from our dogs. We knew Claudia would always provide great care and love to them. She became a well-known person in our neighborhood as she met so many people when taking the dogs for long walks. After the dogs had a stay with Claudia I would laugh as our Lab would pull me in the direction of a nearby lake for several days as she was accustomed to Claudia taking her there for daily swims. We felt we always left our home clean and organized but it seemed Claudia left it cleaner than when she arrived. One time we had a power outage in our neighborhood that lasted several days. On her own, without any instructions from us, she secured a portable generator and powered the refrigerator and freezer in our home. We were so sad when Claudia moved away and it forced us to scout and interview replacements for dog care. She was not easy to replace. We would highly recommend Claudia to take care of your pets and home. Feel free to contact me if you have further questions.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fully fenced 8 acre property with a four ft fence. Dogs are free to have access to entire property as well as free range indoors. We have a very comfortable home with a large wrap around deck and 5 exits. So it’s in/out all day as much as any dog wants/needs. It’s truly doggie heaven here and most people want to stay themselves when they drop off their dogs. We don’t care for more than 2 at a time.

Any special needs to inc dietary, medication.l, sleeping presences (I.e. their dog bed, crate, etc). Otherwise, they have the run of the property and home.

A typical day

Your dog(s? Will have no shortage of means for physical exercise and emotional coddling. There are lots of sniffs to sniff around the property and 2 penned goats out back and a few pastures horses out front to entertain them). If you’d dog(s) are good off leash, I’m happy to take them to the beach to re some more romping, fetch posting, swimming.
