Loving and retired dedicated sitter

I care for pets like my own. I go above and beyond and make sure they are clean and happy. I love taking the dogs I care for on long walks and I also enjoy playing with them, and giving them attention through a good 'ole fashioned belly rub.

Dora was wonderful to work with! She took great care of my dog Sassy, feeding her dinner and taking her for a walk on the days I needed to work late. She was very responsive to my messages and sent pictures of the walks. I would highly recommend her to care for your pet. Thanks Dora!

Are Jack Russell dog spent an overnight with Dora this weekend and we were very pleased with how it went. Dora was very focused on Albie’s needs and making him feel comfortable and happy when he was with her. She played with him took him for walks, comforted him when he couldn’t settle at night and overall the whole experience was wonderful.

Dora is an exceptional dog sitter! I was a little nervous at first but Dora’s sweet and kind nature made me comfortable leaving my dog with her. She made sure to send updates with pictures and was always available to respond if I checked in on my sweet Kali. I know my dog enjoyed her stay at Dora’s. When I picked her up she was clean and happy! I would definitely recommend Dora if you’re in need of someone to watch your dog who’s going to treat them like their own. I will definitely be booking with Dora again in the future!

Dora was amazing! I have a 14 year old Jack Russell and she took such good care of him. I received constant updates and she responded immediately if I reached out. My dog Ziggy came back home very happy! Definitely recommend her and will use her services again. Thanks Dora!

Schedule

I am happily retired and love animals. My husband and I were pet owners to a beautiful spunky, honey-colored Pomeranian, named Daisy. Sadly she passed away in 2021 after 13 beautiful years together. I haven't replaced her since. I dog/pet sit for my friends' dogs on occasion. Pet sitting helps fill the void of my Daisy and I would like to do it more for those that may need it. My friends and family entrust me with their pets because they know I will care for them as my own. When I dog sit, I give them attention, play with them, and take them on walks. If I'm not taking them for a walk around the neighborhood or the local park, I have a backyard for them to handle their immediate business.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced backyard, a spacious living room and a large bonus room that is connected to our living room that allows dogs space to roam around. And if requested, I can also administer medications or have your dog sleep in their crate, if needed.

A typical day

When your dog stays at my home, they will not only receive the normal essentials like food and multiple outings for them to handle their business. They will also get walks because that also doubles as exercise for both of us. If they have toys, I will also play with them, scratch their backs and give them a good 'ole belly rub. Most importanty, I give them attention.
