Pet care experience
I’ve loved pets for as long as I can remember, so it was a natural fit when a friend asked me to come and stay with her babies when she and her husband were on a 3 week vacation abroad. Word got out and before I knew it, another friend asked me to take care of her babies while she was in Germany. My new business thrived! I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and homes in CA, CO, AZ, and VA. ❤️ They love me and I love them.
Reviews
Debbie went above and beyond caring for our dog and house. Sent pictures of activities going on around the house such as landscaping job prep etc. she is excellent to communicate about the pet. Sent a picture because she was co concerned about her nose. Just an amazing person all around. We would change travel dates in order to hire her. Best we’ve ever had.
Debbie clearly has the knack for reading dog behavior! Our three canines had a difficult week with lots of changes to their routines, and were pretty wound up. Debbie spent focused time with each of them, and by the time she left they were considerably calmer. We would welcome her back for anything from drop-in visits to overnights and long stays. Thank you, Debbie!
Debbie was very attentive and provided daily feed back and photos.
Debbie is an exceptional pet and house sitter! Given the flexibility in her work schedule, she took the initiative to come out and meet us and our dogs before we left our trip. This allowed us to walk her through their routine and familiarize her with our home, creating an immediate sense of confidence in leaving our dogs under her care. Debbie's warm personality, coupled with her thoughtful questions, endeared her to both us and our dogs right away. Throughout our time away, Debbie consistently provided daily updates, complete with photos, and maintained open communication whenever she had questions, demonstrating her commitment to ensuring our pets were well cared for. I really appreciated her proactive approach to keeping us informed. When we got home, we were delighted to find our home in pristine condition, if not even cleaner than we left it! Debbie's attention to detail and respect for our space was clear, reinforcing our decision to entrust her with both our pets and home. Given the positive experience, we have already booked her for our next trip! Debbie's professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals make her a top choice for anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring pet/house sitter.

At this time, I do not offer boarding in my home, however I treat your pets with as much love and care in your home as I treat my precious granddog in mine. Much patience and love is required for pets who are missing their parents and I love caring for them and maybe even spoiling them a bit. 😉
Information Debbie M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dogs have any special needs or behaviors that I need to account for. If you need reinforcement of special training you’re doing, I’m happy to help you with that.
A typical day
I love to stimulate your dogs physically and mentally. We’ll play games, and check out all the smells in the neighborhood and have fun walks, if that’s what your dog is used to.

Availability
I am self employed so it’s easy to work your pet/s into my schedule. If it’s dropping in for a potty break and quick play date, or a good long walk to get some fresh air, I have lots of available slots to take care of your precious baby.
