Retired Pet Lover!

Hi, I’m Debbie, and I have always had dogs in my life! I retired a little over a year ago, and I love spending time with my husband and our 2 year old Golden Retriever, Frankie. He’s our second Golden and we love this breed, although we really love all dogs — cats, too! I enjoy walking Frankie and we are avid walkers in this house. I’d love to take your dog on walks, too! I’m available for dog walking, drop in visits for feeding and potty breaks (with or without Frankie tagging along, that would be up to you); I can also housesit your dog in your own home while you’re away on vacation or other travels. I look forward to meeting you and your pet!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced backyard where my Golden Retriever, Frankie, would be ready to make friends with your dog if you’d like them to meet. If you’d prefer that your dog stay at home in his/her own surroundings, I’ll be happy to oblige whatever requests you have in order to keep your pet comfortable and happy.

If you are looking for someone who will treat your beloved pet not just with care, but with the deepest affection, respect, and genuine joy, Debbie is the absolute perfect choice. Debbie understands that every pet has their own unique personality, quirks, and routine, and she will go above and beyond to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and incredibly loved. She has a natural, intuitive bond with animals, especially dogs. Whether it's keeping up with an energetic pup’s play schedule, managing specific feeding routines, or simply providing a quiet, soothing presence for a senior dog who loves to cuddle, she handles it all with effortless patience and warmth. Beyond her obvious love for animals, Debbie is exceptionally responsible, reliable, and trustworthy. She recently retired and is the kind of person who pays attention to the small details—ensuring doors are secure, schedules are met, and communication is prompt and reassuring. You will never have to worry for a second while your pet is in her care, knowing she treats every pet as if they were her very own family member. I cannot recommend Debbie highly enough. Any dog would be incredibly lucky to spend time with her, and any pet owner will have complete peace of mind leaving their furry family member in her highly capable, loving hands.

Debbie is an excellent sitter! She has watched my Chihuahua, Lenny for a few years now whenever I go out of town. I can always trust that my pup has a great time and is well cared for by her. She always keeps me up to date with how Lenny’s doing and sends pictures throughout his stay. I’d definitely recommending hiring her!
