Safety, trust & environment

You can rest assured that your pets and your home are in good hands with me. I will never bring unauthorized people onto your property or allow them to care for your animals in my place. All security measures will be triple checked and I am happy to text you updates and photos while you are away!

Information Deborah F. would like to know about your pet

Part of a successful visit is knowing as much about your pet as I can BEFORE I even meet them. I’d love for you to describe your pets energy levels and specific needs, as well as let me know if they have any preferences.

A typical day

I love to hang out with animals of all kinds! I can chill with your senior that just wants company or bounce with your high energy pup or kitty to tire them out. On walks, sniffing is the top priority so I won’t tug or rush your dog along if they want to examine (as long as what they are examining is safe, of course). If your reptile could use some enrichment I can provide it, or if they would prefer to not be disturbed I can check water, temp humidity on stealth mode. I’m also happy to chat and sing with your birds!

Pet care experience

I am comfortable handling, caring for, cleaning up after and medicating all kinds of animals. My favorites are reptiles, dogs and cats, but I have experience with rodents of many types, birds and invertebrates as well. I am comfortable walking large dogs or multiple dogs at a time. I currently have an 11 year old lab/rott, a five year old miniature dachshund, a 1 year old king/corn snake, a five month old hognose snake and three hermit crabs. I have had all of them since they were babies and I grew up in a house full of animals.

Debi has taken care of our dog a few times and have had a great experiences each time. One of the biggest things we look for is how our dog feels when we return home. It was clear that he was relaxed, happy, and not stressed at all. It gives us piece of mind knowing he is well cared for when we are away. We also appreciate that Debi was able to help on short notice for this last trip. Would recommend her to others.

This was our second visit with Debi and she did a great job. Our dog can be apprehensive with people but does very well with Debi. We are very grateful that we can leave him and know that he is getting the best care. Thank you again.
