Information Deborah S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any special habits, likes, dislikes and how long you are comfortable leaving them alone for any errands and such. Or anything special that your need.

I love to walk so dogs would have at least one daily early walk. My back yard is large and we will spend as much time out there as possible.

Retired- love taking care of pets!

Pet care experience

I have been caring for pets since I was a child. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I’ve also been involved in wildlife rehab rehabilitation. I am also a disaster service worker doing animal rescue during fires. I’ve always had pets in my home but recently lost my cat this year and my dog last year. I’m taking a break from having pets right now as the loss is still too new. Taking care of other people’s pets gives me a chance to have my animal fix :)

Deborah did a great job in watching our dog Snowflake while we were gone for 2 weeks and she kept us updated and sent photos while we were on vacation.

From the moment we met Debbie we knew our pets would be well taken care of while we were away. We have a senior dog and senior cat who both need medication. Debbie was comfortable with both pills and injections. She communicated regularly and sent photos of our pets. Debbie asked questions when something came up (example: our dog didn’t eat one day.) having Debbie take care of our pets was the next best thing to being home with them. I would recommend Debbie to everyone and will reach out to her again if we need a pet sitter. Thank you, Debbie!

Deborah was fantastic! We trusted all of our dogs and cats with her for in-home visits while we were away for a week. They were all cared for and each got special love and attention. We also got tons of pictures! We will for sure be contacting her again!
