Big or small I take care of all!

I have taken care of all kinds of animals since I can remember. I grew up with birds, cats, dogs, hamsters, bunnies, ferrets and fish. Though my absolute favorite are dogs! I would love to take your dog on walks, feed and water them and give them baths if needed.

Debra did her best working with my anxious cats. Checked that water fountain was working and maintained clean litter boxes. Would definitely book with her again

House Sitting • Jul 05, 2026

As a first-time Rover user, I was incredibly nervous about leaving our cats, Stella and Winston, while we were away in Maine. Stella is 16 years old and was recently diagnosed with kidney disease and asthma, so making sure she received her medications—especially her inhaler—was my biggest concern. While she’s great about taking it from me, I worried that asking friends or family to handle it would be stressful for everyone. From the moment we met Deb, I knew our cats were in great hands. She was patient, compassionate, and determined to earn Stella’s trust, even when she was feeling shy and a little spicy. Deb stayed in constant communication with us every day, sending updates and making sure Stella received all of her medications. That peace of mind was absolutely priceless. Winston clearly adored her too! She spent time playing with him, and the daily photos and updates made me feel so much less guilty about being away. As an incredibly thoughtful surprise, Deb even printed a few of the photos for us to keep. 🥰 If you’re new to Rover or simply looking for someone who will truly care for your pets as if they were her own, don’t hesitate to book Deb. She went above and beyond in every way, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her with Stella and Winston again. Your fur babies will be in the best hands!

Debra was awesome! She was very friendly and loves to make good conversation! Our usual dog walker was an able to take her out on a regular day, and I reached out to her at the last minute to see if she could help out. Deborah was punctual and very attentive to our dog, and everything that she needed. It’s also very clear that she has plenty of experience taking care of dogs since she also has her own at home. I’m sure that if I ever need help I will reach out to Debra once again! Thanks for the help!

Debra house sat for our 2 dogs and cat for several days and was fantastic! Our fur babies loved the treats she brought them and she even took care of our garden while we were away! Will absolutely be using her in the future!

There are not enough words to express my gratitude and how happy I am that I hired Deb to walk my 85 lb. Golden doodle. She is highly responsible and loves pets. She shows up at my house and immediately engages with my dog. I know this because one of the added touches that she does that I really love, is that she will send me a picture or a video of my dog and her interactions with him. The other thing I love about Deb is that without me asking, she'll do other things like every Thursday when garbage gets picked up she automatically brings the cans in for me. You will not be disappointed. I would highly recommend her.

Please let me know if your dog needs special attention. Also I would like to know some things that make him or her worried or upset and if they like other people/animals and children, so that I can accommodate to their needs.
