Pet care experience

Loving and easy-going

I have had dogs and other assorted species as pets my entire life. I have also fostered dogs for adoption. I live alone and I'm retired. It is a quiet, peaceful home with a laid-back and patient sitter. I can accommodate most routines that your pet has established from sleeping in a kennel or on a doggie bed. They are also welcome in my bed! Your pet will receive lots of love and attention. I WILL accept dogs up to 25 pounds. (Rover doesn't allow that choice.)

Doggy Day Care • Jun 14, 2026

This is probably our sixth timing having Debora watch our two little dogs and we love her!! Our dogs are so loved and taken care of when they go to Debora’s and sometimes they don’t even want to leave! She really is so great at taking care of your pets, highly recommend!!

Debora gave wonderful care to our little boy (a Chihuahua) for the 9 days we were away on a trip. We received several pictures and emails from Debora while we were away, showing how he had settled in and was very comfortable with her at her house. We had a great time on our trip as well, knowing he was so well cared for with her. Thank you again, Debora!

Doggy Day Care • Jan 18, 2026

Debora was kind and willing to care for our highly active puppy. She was great at communication and left us detailed notes of Ember's stay. We feel Ember was well cared for at her home. We decided she was not the best fit for us because of how active our puppy is, but we recommend Debora for a less active dog.

Deb took great care of Oscar while I was away. He was recovering from a knee surgery, on medication and I was very nervous using a new pet sitter. She put my mind at ease and was very inventive and found ways to let him quietly play and stay entertained.

An amazing experience, our cats almost didn’t want to come home with us!

Schedule

I am retired but I do give piano lessons in my home a few days a week. Visiting dogs seem to enjoy laying near the piano to listen.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm not uptight about accidents in the house but I do clean them up as soon as I know they're there. I am able to take short walks to allow your pet to do his business properly. Pets are fed twice a day as well as being given occasional healthy treats with permission. There is a good supply of toys available to engage and stimulate your pet. I want to provide care in line with your pets established routine.

A typical day

We will take short walks in the neighborhood and visit a local dog park. We will interact and play with a variety of toys. As appropriate we will use food puzzles, kongs and lick pads to entertain and stimulate your pets brain. As appropriate we will integrate training sessions into the day. *I tried to edit but couldn't. Crate training isn't required.
