Pet care experience

Furever Friends Pet Care

I love big dogs, little dogs, and all in between. I've had two wonderful Golden Retrievers and I'm looking forward to caring for your furbabies. I'm retired and am now looking forward to an enjoyable career as a pet sitter. I'm available 7 days a week, very flexible schedule. My husband and I are retired and are both huge animal lovers. Our Goldens crossed the Rainbow bridge and petsitting is a way to fill the void they left in our lives. We did have a beautiful cat but she passed away from cancer in September 2025. We no longer have any pets in our home.

Judy was amazing and put us at ease with leaving Lucy for the first time. She kept us updated each day and Lucy was very happy. We all made a new friend and we will gladly leave Lucy with Judy and Tom in the future!

Fantastic experience! She really cares about making sure you and your pet are comfortable. Ted got all the attention he needed and all the snuggles he expects. Absolutely recommend Judy to anyone looking for a pet sitter. Ted will be returning the next time we need a sitter. Thank you soooo much!!!

Judy was wonderful once again! Baylee was happy and healthy when we picked her up. Judy takes special care for Baylee’s eating due to her not eating much when we return gone. Baylee gets all the snuggles, attention and walks during her stay. I’m so happy with Judy and this is our third time sitting Baylee. Oh, did I mention we drive 40 mins to her also? It’s worth it! I highly recommend her for your pets care and we will use her again!

Judy was awesome! My dog Baylee was well taken care of during her 4 day stay with her. I received daily updates and pictures to ease my mind while we were states away. Baylee was given multiple walks everyday, loved on and snuggled with! She was very happy and healthy when we picked her up. This is the second time we have used Judy for pet sitting at her home and have been very pleased each visit. Will be happy to use her again! Thanks!

Judy was the best pet sitter! Our little girl was so happy and we could tell she enjoyed her time there. Judy sent us many pictures of their walks and snuggles during her stay which made us very happy pet parents! Judy even updated us on how our dog ate because she’s a picky girl upon arrival. She even allowed us to do a meet and greet with her and her husband before our scheduled trip to make sure our girl would get along with her cat. We will definitely use her again. Thank you Judy!

Schedule

Since I am retired I'll have lots of time to spoil your pets! I'm an early riser so a walk first thing in the morning is fairly routine.

Where your pet will stay

Home characteristics

Lives in a house
Has an unfenced yard
Non-smoking household
Has no pets
No children present
Dogs allowed on bed
Dogs allowed on furniture
Potty breaks every 2-4 hours

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs are taken on short walks 3 or 4 times a day and given lots of love and attention. If owners are ok with it they are allowed on furniture and are allowed to sleep on my bed.

A typical day

I live in a great neighborhood for dog walking, very quiet and not a lot of traffic. I love to walk and if your dog also likes to walk he or she will get lots of exercise weather permitting. I won't take them out for long in very hot and humid conditions or freezing weather.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Takes only 1 client at a time
Judy can host up to 2 pets per night
I would want your dog to be totally housebroken. I love almost any dog breed but am partial to Golden Doodles. I prefer not to take care of pitbulls or dogs that have a prey fixation.
