Affordable Small Dog Sitter 🐕

With over twenty years of experience in dog sitting and a deep understanding of dog behavior and canine Reiki healing, I offer a safe, loving, and attentive environment for your furry companions. I specialize in caring for dogs two years old and under thirty-five pounds, and I can comfortably care for up to two dogs at a time, as my own dog makes a third. To ensure a smooth and positive experience, I recommend your dog be socialized. Please bring a cozy bed or sleeping area for your dog, as I will be with them day and night—no alone time. I’d love to meet you and your dog first to discuss your needs and answer any questions you may have. Feel free to text or call the Rover number provided.

Debbie is the best!! She is so patient and kind. She took care of our boy Leo for 7 days and sent pictures and updates the entire time. 10/10 will definitely come back in the future! Thank you Debbie ♥️

Debbie has a great setup with a fenced yard accessible by dog door, lots of toys, dog beds, etc. She is home most of the time so the dogs have company during the day. The dogs sleep in the large living room, and she sleeps in another part of the house. That wasn't a good arrangement for my dogs, unfortunately. My dogs are used to sleeping on the bed or in the same room with me. So this visit did not work out, and we had to end it prematurely. But it's an excellent arrangement if your dog is not as clingy as mine.

Looking for a Pet Service is very important to me and what comes first is that person's feeling and natural relationship with animals. Debbie has that special bond and I have no problem or concerns leaving our "baby" in Debbie's care. Debbie provides a first class pet service and I wouldn't hesitate recommending her steady dependable care to anyone.

Doggy Day Care • Jul 14, 2019

Debbie has watched my dog two more times since I initially had to pick him up early due to his anxiety. I took her advice and got him on some medication, and he’s done amazingly well with her the past two times. He’s comfortable around her, and has been excited to go back. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone with small dogs. She genuinely cares about each dog she watches.

Debbie did everything she could to try to make my little guy comfortable, but unfortunately his separation anxiety got the best of him. I had to pick him up after 4 hours. I hope to use Debbie again in the future after working on ways to help my dog adjust more easily. She told me she’s willing to try again too.

Schedule

As a dedicated, full-time pet care professional, I offer constant companionship and supervision for your beloved animals. Unlike sitters who may have other employment and leave pets unattended for extended periods, you can rely on my around-the-clock availability, day or night, to attend to all your pet's requirements. This unwavering commitment is what defines true pet sitting for me.

Safety, trust & environment

I offer a secured, fenced yard for playtime. Indoor toys are available, and potty breaks can be every two hours. I'll feed your provided food in separate areas. Crating is available if your dog is accustomed to using one at home. I can administer pills and shots if the dog accepts them. My aim is your pet's comfort and a home-like experience.

Pets

A typical day

I tailor every activity to your dog's unique personality and preferences! Some pups are natural-born athletes eager for playtime, while others prefer a more relaxed pace. My secret to a happy pack? Getting to know each furry friend and discovering what truly brings them joy. In this home, we absolutely adore cozy snuggles, and when we're feeling energetic, we dive into thrilling games of fetch, squeaky toys, and exciting rounds of hide-and-seek!

It is helpful to know if your dog has been in care with a professional pet sitter . Does he or she have any behavior or marking problems? Does your dog get along with other dogs? Lastly, does your dog get upset if you leave or if you leave him or her alone? Where does your dog sleep? A kennel can be brought to my home for bedtime if your dog needs it.
