Your Dog's Favorite Auntie!

Pet care experience

I am missing having my own dog right now and would love to have a weekend visitor. I am free on weekends for long walks, lots of play time and cuddles. I have supplemented my income in the past with dog-walking and had several clients that I would regularly pet-sit for.

Debra was so wonderful with Buxton again! He is 5 months old, and has a lot of energy. I can tell from the pictures she sends that he is his normal happy self! We are so lucky to have found Debra!!

Debra watched our 14 week old puppy Buxton. She is the best dog sitter! Puppies take so much time and effort. She followed our schedule, and sent us pictures and a video to show us how happy he was! We would love to have Debra take care of Buxton again. She is so kindhearted and truly shows her love to the pets she takes care of❤️

I do have a picket-fenced yard. Since some dogs are able to jump this shorter fence, I prefer to be outside watching or taking dogs for a walk. I live across the street from a park with a walking trail.

Information Debra S. would like to know about your pet

Other pets are not an issue since I do not have one of my own. Are there any medications or health issues you'd like me to know? What is your vet's name? Does your dog follow a particular diet? Are treats okay? How can I keep your dog feeling happy and secure?

A typical day

Long walks are fun. I have a park right across the street and a walking trail. I have a fireplace and on cold days I like to get it going. Some of my doggie friends love to lay by the fire and cuddle up on their bed. I love a good lap dog who likes to cuddle or be petted. Feel free to bring your dog's favorite toys.

I'm fairly busy during the week but am a homebody on weekends. I can take your fur baby Friday afternoon usually beginning around 4:30 and can keep them until 6:30 AM on Monday morning. I don't mind having a dog longer than the weekends with your understanding that I'm working long hours and would have to crate your pet.
