Pet care experience
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.)
Cat care experience
Debora also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
An amazing experience, our cats almost didn’t want to come home with us!
There was great communication and updates from Debora and I felt that my pup got the best care possible!
As always Debora made adjustments to accommodate Cindy's comfort level with the various real life activities in the household. Debora is so good to Cindy. That says it all!!
As always, Deborah is Awesome! I can tell Harley loves being with her. He's perfectly at home. I don't know what I would do without her! Thanks for another great stay, Deborah♡♡♡♡♡

Skills
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.
