I can accommodate special needs and administer oral medications. I need to know when your dog eats, if she/he is allowed snacks, where they like to sleep and how I can make them feel at home.

A typical day

I make sure there is a potty break and usually feeding first thing in the morning we then go outside to play. Fetch is a favorite of most dogs. We go out a few times a day, rest periods and then dinner and outside.

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our two boys! From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. Deb kept us updated while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation. When we picked them up, they were so happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious they had been loved and treated like family while we were gone. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care she gave them and would trust Deb with our dogs again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their pets as if they were her own! Thank you Deb! ☺️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Deborah took exceptional care of my dog, Lily, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we arrived, Lily felt completely at home. Deborah's home has such a warm, welcoming energy, and it was clear that she genuinely loves and cares for the dogs she watches. She was incredibly communicative throughout Lily's stay, sending regular updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind. It was obvious Lily was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would absolutely trust Deborah with Lily again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my girl!
