Pets

DEBORAH G. has Star Sitter status

A lifetime of animal experience✨

Pet care experience

My tools are experience and calm energy, lots of love, and positive reinforcement. Life would be empty without at least a dog, a cat, or both, living long, full lives with me 💕Currently retired from real estate, artistic, and writing a book while doing things I love - like traveling in my Sprinter van and taking care of our best friends!

Deborah was awesome. I was only gone for 2 nights but she stayed in my home and took great care of my cat. I came home to a very happy and relaxed kitty

Deborah was the perfect choice for our mid-trip fill in. When my sister needed a few days away, Deborah navigated communication between myself and my sister and most importantly, took good care of Tucker and our house. We’ve already scheduled her for our next trip!

Debbie was great. She handled everything professionally, asked great questions, and even had some suggestions. Good communication leading up to and during our trip. We would use her again.
