Animals are my way of life!
Pet care experience
Welcome to my animal care services, backed by over 20 years of experience working with animals! As a seasoned pet sitter, dog walker, trainer, and socializer, I offer a unique and personalized approach to caring for your furry friends. My home boarding service accommodations are very limited, ensuring your pets receive the attention and care they deserve. With extensive experience handling dogs with behavioral issues and senior dogs requiring medication, you can trust your pets are in capable hands. My long-standing volunteer work with animal rescue organizations has equipped me with the skills to care for animals of all sizes and temperaments. My own friendly dogs are an integral part of my socialization program, helping other dogs overcome shyness or anxiety. They love meeting new friends and enjoy playtime with dog-friendly companions! My boarding area is a cozy, clean, and comfortable space attached to a fully fenced backyard with a private entrance. Your dogs will enjoy free-roaming privileges most of the time, with crates downtime during brief periods of unsupervised time (e.g., when I'm out running errands or at night). Feel confident leaving your pets in my care, knowing they'll receive the love, attention, and expertise they deserve!
Reviews
I was extremely happy with Debbie and her family. I left my two dogs with her. One of my dogs is diabetic and the other one has a tough personality. She was able to deal with both of them without any issues. She sent videos while I was away which made me feel more at ease. I could tell they were not stressed while at her house. The accommodations were perfect for them.
Debbie has a safe and wonderful set up for boarding your dog. My dog Peter loved it there. He played and socialized with other dogs and was very well cared for. Debbie was great about updates and sending pics and videos of our boy each day! Will definitely board Peter with Debbie again!
EXCELLENT!
Debbie not only helped us find our rescue pup, Abby Rose, she also pet sits for us! We are so lucky to be able to leave our beloved pet with a kind, loving caretaker, like Debbie! We are able to go on vacation without worry. We also receive adorable pictures and videos of Abby during her stay away. We appreciate the level of care our dog receives when we are away. Abby also doesn’t seem to want to leave Debbie’s home when we come to pick her up. I HIGHLY recommend Debbie to pet sit or walk your pet when you are unable to.

Safety, trust & environment
Experience peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pet is in trusted hands. As a dedicated pet sitter, I provide comprehensive care for your furry friend in the comfort of your own home, while also respecting and caring for your property. During dog walks, I prioritize safe handling and engage with your pet to keep them mentally stimulated and entertained. If your pet boards with me, they'll enjoy a safe, clean, and comfortable environment in a separate area of my home, complete with access to a fully fenced yard. Your pet will thrive with frequent walks, playtime, and activities tailored to their interests and needs. Please note that, on occasion, I may have daycare clients visiting during your pet's stay. Rest assured that my daycare and boarding services are separate, and your pet will receive exceptional care and attention regardless. If your dog prefers solo attention, I can accommodate their needs and provide a comfortable, stress-free experience. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I'm committed to delivering outstanding care in both my home and yours.
Home
Information Debbie F. would like to know about your pet
Please share any special needs your dog may have, whether medical or behavioral, so I can prepare and provide the necessary accommodations to ensure their comfort and well-being. Familiarity with a crate is essential, as it plays a crucial role in maintaining your dog's safety in an unfamiliar environment. As safety is my top priority, I utilize crates when I'm away from home (typically no longer than 3 hours) to ensure your dog's security. During this time, your dog will be comfortably crated with soothing background music and monitored via video camera, providing an added layer of safety and reassurance. By understanding your dog's specific needs and preferences, I can tailor my care to meet their individual requirements, giving you peace of mind while you're away.
A typical day
I live near a beautiful nature preserve, where I love to take the dogs for long walks (with the consent of the pet’s owner). I have a variety of activity toys to keep them entertained, and fun outdoor activities to help burn their energy.
