What did we do to deserve dogs?

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with dogs, worked in an overnight dog boarding daycare right out of college, volunteered for the PSPCA, and have dog sat for just about everyone in my life who has a dog (ranging from a 115 Great Dane to a family of three 3-lb chihuahuas). Now that my boyfriend Rich and I have a dog of our own (Clover - about 1.5 years old) I’m looking to make a little extra cash by providing care to dogs and providing you with the comfort and security you need while you are away! Your dog will be treated like my own and Clover will be thrilled to have a bud around, too! (disclaimer: sorry in advance if I send you 3,000 pictures and updates)

Deirdre was absolutely wonderful! She watched our 2-month old lab puppy, Margot, for two overnights and gave her all of the love and attention that she would get at home. My husband and I really enjoyed receiving updates and photos throughout the days that we were away. Margot returned home happy and tired from all of her play time with Deirdre's wonderful dog Clover. Deirdre was so flexible ahead of the boarding as well as with pick up, which my husband and I greatly appreciated as our arrival back home was later than expected. Can't say enough wonderful things about Deirdre (and Clover!). Would absolutely recommend!

Deirdre was a perfect sitter for Chapel! She was super quick to respond, sent me a ton of pictures and updates, and was very flexible with my schedule. Chapel passed out when I brought her home, so I know she had a great weekend!! Thank you Deirdre for taking such good care of my girl!

Deirdre is an exceptional dog owner and dog sitter. She has a true passion for any pal with paws! She is always cognizant of the dog's needs, keeps them on a good schedule and is strict with any suggestions or rules given when entrusted to care for your pets. Deirdre loves dogs and they definitely love being around her too! Fun for everyone.
