Debbie and her pup Ozzie are amazing!!!! One of my dogs has separation anxiety but settled in and was comfortable enough to play!!! They even got steak and veggies for Ozzie’s birthday!!! I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch them again!!

Thank you, Debbie, for outstanding care for our doggy boy! We will definitely stay in touch and hope to see you again! Simba is already missing you and Ozzie 😊

Debbie is great. She is nice and loving to my boy cat Leon. She follows instructions very well. She knows how raw food diet works and how automatic scooper works. She makes suggestions on things and has my cat's best interest in mind. Unlike some pet sitters, she doesn't rush to leave and she stays and plays with Leon which I appreciate very much!

Dog Walking • Jun 06, 2024

Debbie was fantastic with my dog, I would wholeheartedly recommend her. She was communicative, and was able to shift some walk times to accommodate my schedule changes. I will definitely use her again.

Debbie is a very thoughtful and considerate human! She took such great care of my cat and showed her more love and attention than any Rover I’ve ever worked with. Highly highly recommend. She will take care of your pets like her own!

Debbie is excellent! We had a weekend getaway and asked Debbie to make two drop-ins to care for our cats. This was our second time having Debbie do drop-ins, and it had been a while since last time. Nevertheless, Debbie remembered our cats and their setup very well, and took excellent care of their every need. The daily updates were great, too.

Schedule

My schedule is extremely flexible. I can go to your home for walks, feeding, playtime and administering meds. I work weekends and well as weekdays. Overnights would need to be at my home, because I have a a 6 year old Shihpoo who is the sweetest dog you could ever meet!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a dog friendly apartment complex in the Harbor Point section of Stamford. There are three nearby dog parks and plenty of sidewalks and safe potty areas right outside my building. I’m very active and love to go on long walks. My apartment is spotless and always safe for dogs. I am very careful about leaving anything around that would harm them. In addition to the insurance covered by Rover, I have my own liability insurance and am bonded as well.

Pets

A typical day

I love taking dogs to Kosciusko park and by the waterfront/boardwalk in Harbor Point. If you live outside of my neighborhood, I try to bring them to the nearest park if possible.

0 to 15 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Debbie can host up to 4 pets per night
It’s important for your pets to be up to date with their vaccines, especially if I will be taking them to public places for walks or I will be boarding them. It’s also important for me to know if your dog has ever been aggressive towards people or other dogs. I have extensive experience walking and caring for dogs with behavioral issues, so I am not opposed to walking them, but I do need to know ahead of time.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
