Pet care experience

Preferred By Top Dogs & Cool Cats

I've been pet-sitting for friends, family, and referrals for the past 10 years. Yorkies, Doodles, Dachshunds, and other mixed breed dogs, cats, and birds. I love caring for pets, especially cats and dogs and keeping them on their routines, feeling safe and loved while their owners are away. I've cared for senior dogs and have administered medications to both cats and dogs. I love taking dogs for their walks ...I personally walk 3+ miles every day and will gladly sit for dogs who love a good, long walk. I typically do overnight stays from 2 nights to 6 weeks. I am now accepting dogs, one at a time, for day sits in my home. I have a big fenced in yard and currently no pets.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not currently have a pet. I used to have cats and I love all pets. I have a fenced in back yard. I typically pet sit in the pet's home when owners travel and am now offering daycare for one dog at a time in my home. I love to send pictures of the pets to their owners to let them know their pet is happy and well cared for.

Wonderful house sitter & took terrific care of our cat Oscar. Deborah leapt in to help us on short notice when another Rover sitter bailed the night before she was due to start. My wife and I highly recommend Deborah and would be happy to use her again.

Deborah is the only person I feel truly comfortable leaving my dogs with. She has been watching them for several years now, and she is genuinely the next closest thing to me being there myself. Whenever I’m away, I have total peace of mind knowing they are in such caring and loving hands. My dogs are always thrilled to see her because she goes above and beyond to make their time special. If you want to feel completely at ease while you're away, I cannot recommend Deborah highly enough!

Deborah has been taking care of our dog Lucy for at least 7 years. She comes to our home when ever we are traveling. Deborah is very reliable, not only does she love and take care of Lucy, Lucy loves her and she is always excited when she comes. I trust her in our home and with Lucy. She has taught me new things that Lucy loves. Hide and seek and cuddles before going out in the morning.

Deborah checks all the boxes! She loves animals and has a way about her that is so gentle and kind! Our Yorkie is a rescue and, to be honest, he has issues with everybody except her. He is very happy to see her and we have come to call her visits Camp Deb ! We trust Deborah completely and our dog has spent up to two full weeks with her. I couldn’t recommend Deborah more highly! We plan to use her services often in the future.
