Looking for fur friends!

My recent move from Indiana to Western New York state is done and I'm offering Rover sitting services in NY state now. Thank you Rover for being so flexible! Thank you to all my friends in Indiana who have trusted me with your babies. I will miss all of you! My house is pet friendly (especially the furniture!) and I have a small fenced area where small dogs can enjoy the fresh air. Larger dogs will love walking in Allen Park, near my house. Let me put your mind at ease while I’m taking care of your fur kids! I’ll send you pictures while I’m pampering them! Your dogs are invited to come my home, and I’m also happy to house-sit for dogs (and your other pets) in the comfort of your home where they are in their own environment. I love animals of all kinds and have great empathy for them, so we will get along well. I understand the pain we, as pet owners, feel at leaving our furkids with strangers, and I will do my best to keep your pets happy, relaxed and comfortable while you’re gone. I am experienced with a range of dogs, from young adult dogs to senior dogs with diabetes and heart problems. My own mini-poodle, Franky, has gone to doggy heaven but I’m just not ready mentally for another full-time pupper yet. But I’d love to pamper and love on your pets in the meantime! Thank you for your consideration! I am so excited and look forward to meeting you and your dogs!

Debbie is the best sitter you could ask for, she has looked after my Morkie several times and have been very satisfied. She keeps you updated with pictures often. You will not be disappointed in using her.

Debbie takes care of my dog and cat. They LOVE her!!! She is the very best. I never have to worry about them when Debbie takes care of them. They are well loved and so happy when she is at my house.

Debbie sent me photos of my pup and updates about her during her stay. I appreciated it so much and picked up a very happy dog.

I was very sick, and my little doggy had never been away from me. He was quite nervous, but in her calm, nurturing, compassionate way, Debbie quickly won him over. I didn't worry about him for one single minute: it was clear he was happy and thriving. Through my ordeal, she was an angel from heaven taking excellent care of him while easing any of my anxieties by providing an ongoing written and pictorial diary of his stay with her. She has an amazing gift for understanding and developing a rapport with dogs. I don't know how I would ever have gotten through this without her. I couldn't recommend her enough to other doggy owners!!!!

Safety, trust & environment

Whether in your home or mine, I'll care for your pets as if they were my own. And that includes occasionally spoiling them -- unless you tell me not to!

A typical day

My neighborhood is very dog-friendly and lots of people walk their dogs (on leash, of course). Allen Park is near my house and is the perfect place for a nice walk. My home is comfortable and furkids are welcome on the couch and the bed, unless that's against your rules. If you have multiple pets I can accommodate them as well. I only take one family's furkids at a time, unless you request other arrangements in advance. I do work during the week but I work from home so I can take them out whenever they need to go.

Before taking your dog I'd like to meet him or her, learn about their personality, and learn their likes and dislikes. I'm happy to provide care for any special needs - just give me your instructions. Insulin injections and medications are no problem. Please let me know what their typical day is like, so I can keep them on their usual schedule as much as possible.
