Pet care experience
Send your pup to Grandma's house!
Hi there! My name is Debra and I've owned dogs (big & small) for over 40 years. I love all breeds and have experience with training, showing, caring and raising. I currently have one beloved dog of my own, Arlo, whom would love to have your dog come to stay! Arlo is a 7 year old neutered male. I'm a very active senior that has fulltime availability. My non-smoking home is perfectly situated with a large fenced yard and close proximity to walking trails. I'm great with puppies, I have ample experience with house training and obedience training. An outdoor kennel is right outside my back door and dogs can be let out as often as they need. During the day, your dog can expect walks around the neighborhood and lots of outside yard playtime. During the evening, your dog can expect cuddles, downtime and will sleep in my bedroom. Any questions, please feel free to ask! I can't wait to hear from you!

Ratings and reviews
Once again, Deb was our #1 choice to take care of Monty while we were away. As always, he came back happy and well cared for. Deb was terrific in following all of our care instructions and I really appreciated the photo updates & communication. You can tell she loves animals and they love her right back! Don’t hesitate to book her for your beloved pooch, Monty will definitely be back the next time we’re in need of a sitter.
Debra was great with Zoe. Regular walks and plenty of pictures keeping us up to date were greatly appreciated. Her attention to Zoe’s needs and flexibility with our travel plans were above and beyond. We will definitely be booking with Debra again.
Deb has been watching our dog(s) for over 12 years now, and we couldn't be happier! She is a wonderful caregiver and true dog lover! Our dogs absolutely love her and are always SO excited to see her! We highly recommend Deb to anyone looking for reliable, and attentive pet care!!
I have known Deb for close to 20 years. She is an awesome friend and a wonderful responsible puppy mom! My 15 year old pup, who really doesn't like many people, just loves Deb! He gets so excited when she visits! I would never hesitate having Deb care for my fur baby! Deb is a very caring person and very reliable. Thanks Barb Madden
Debra is wonderful with our beloved pooch, Monty! She is very responsible, caring, trustworthy and loving to our little pug while we’re away. Our care instructions are always followed and I appreciate her prompt communication. We always get photos and updates as to how he’s doing so I know he’s in very good hands. You can tell she’s had over 40+ years of experience with dogs, she’s very attentive to their needs and makes sure they’re comfortable. Don’t hesitate in hiring her, your dog will thank you!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard to keep your pet safe. My dog is free to roam the house, however, I can easily crate or pen your dog depending on your preference.

A typical day
I'm an early riser and I let my pooch outside to do his business first thing. He is trained to ring a bell at my back door which works perfectly. Afterwards, we always go for a mid-morning walk to get some exercise in. Throughout the day, I'm home so bathroom breaks are easily accommodated.
