Safety, trust & environment

I will always confirm your animals' boundaries within your home, such as furniture and room allowances, and ensure security of doors and fences/gates upon arrival and departure.

Information Lucy S. would like to know about your pet

Gaining your furry friends' trust is the most importantpart of my job. I would prefer to have as much information about their personality as possible, such as anxiety or aggression triggers, gender preferences, and what behaviors are normal vs not (such as unusual anxiety or refusal to eat). I have no breed preferences, all are welcome.

A typical day

I will always take the time to ask what your baby loves to do or where they love to go on walks. From fetch to roughousing, every pet should get to participate in their favorite activities, even while parents are away!

Pet care experience

Homegrown right here in Columbus, I have spent my life learning and growing into the skilled, professional care provider I am today. I am here to handle whatever your pet may throw at me during walks, day visits, and overnights! I am comfortable and capable of caring for all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I serve Columbus, Fort Benning, Phenix City and the surrounding areas. PLEASE NOTE: There will be an additional charge of $10 per same-day request and next-day requests made after 5pm. This only applies once to each booking, not each visit/dropin/walk. A meet and greet is required before all first bookings. Inside/outside cats will be kept inside during bookings. A minimum of 3 dropins/walks per day is required for homes without doggy doors. Services And Training: I am prepared to oversee pet health maintenance, administer medication, and house train as needed. Working with animals has always been a significant part of my life. I began caring for my neighbors' pets as a young teen and simply never stopped loving the work! My time at a boarding, daycare, and grooming kennel was cut short by the pandemic. This brought me here, to work with you in your home, committed to the goal of giving your pets the best experience possible. Taking time to learn the personality and individual needs of each furry family member (ex: dietary restrictions, training goals, anxiety triggers and support, maintaining safe distance from other canines during walks, etc.) allows for the building of strong professional relationships with owners, as well as meaningful connections with the animals in my care. I am capable of administering medication as needed. This includes: pills with or without food, eye drops, syringe, etc. Injections (such as insulin) are possible with proper preparation and communication. Picture updates during care are guaranteed. Ask me about: ☆ bathing your pet in your home ☆ nail trims in your home ☆ poop scooping your yard ☆ leash training ☆ hour-long visits/walks ☆ puppy care ☆ geriatric/medically fragile pet care ☆ your daily update schedule for housesitting (1/day, 2/day, every other day for longer stays, etc.) My schedule is constantly evolving to meet your and your furry family members' needs. Please state any specific time requirements clearly as they pertain to medications or important meal times.

Lucy did an incredible job with my cat Dinah while I was away visiting family. She is experienced, consistent and very caring. Lucy understands pets and used different methods to help my cat feel more comfortable and trusting of her. My cat was a happy girl because of the care and attention she received. I would definitely recommend Lucy with your pet care needs!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lucy! My dogs were immediately drawn to her which gave me the peace of mind to go on a trip to visit family knowing they would be well cared for. She sent updates and pictures with every visit. I will definitely book again and again. She has a gift with animals!
