Your Pet Will Be Loved As My Own !
Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Pat. I am an avid lover of dogs and birds. Now retired, I can provide personalized care and love for your special pet. I offer one-on-one attention day and night. From mealtime to play time, massage time, walk time, nap time and fetch, your furry or feathered friend will be loved as my own. Older dogs can enjoy the ease of my single-story rancher; and my fenced-in play area provides exercise and freedom, in addition to personal walks. My lifetime experience is with dog breeds English Setter, German Shepherd, Beagle, Toy Poodle, Bernie Doodle, Sheltie, Mixes. I have 34 years’ experience with birds. I currently have just one cockatiel Sweetie. He’s 30 years old; and I have raised and hand-fed many clutches over the years. You can leave relaxed. Your baby will enjoy his/her vacation, be it one day or many. For those a distance away but planning a stay at the AC casinos or South Jersey shores, I'm only 1.5 miles off the Garden State Parkway and 20 minutes from Atlantic City. We could do a video call for the Meet-n-Greet and provide a convenient pet-care solution. My home is theirs.
Reviews
Pat truly loves dogs! She is kind, loving, caring and very attuned to their needs. Our dog is very anxious (loud noises send her to the quiet of a nearby bathroom), and Pat worked with her to make her as comfortable as possible. Pat opens her home and her heart when caring for your pup.
Pat was excellent with our rescue Thelma. She was loving, attentive, communicative, thoughtful… she’s a perfect fit for a job like this. We will definitely use Pat again!
Absolutely phenomenal experience with our dog sitter! From the moment we dropped off our 9-week-old Moochie, for day care we knew he was in the best hands. Communication was top-notch, receiving regular updates and adorable photos of Moochie having a blast, watching tv and snuggling on the couch. Pat went above and beyond to ensure Moochie's comfort and happiness, even accommodating his special feeding schedule and playful energy, and potty breaks. I was a nervous wreck leaving Moochie, when my work from home husband had an unexpected business trip. Moochie definitely formed a bind with Pat and was so happy to return to day care for the second day! Five stars all the way! We will definitely be booking with Pat again.
Patricia was wonderful with our 12-year-old dog. She took Annabelle on several walks, played fetch and enjoyed each other's company during R n R. We were sent several pics throughout the day. I am extremely pleased with Patricia and her care of Annabelle.

Information Patricia S. would like to know about your pet
I will need to know in advance if your dog has any special, unique needs; exhibits separation anxiety; walks well on leash/harness; is your dog friendly around other dogs and children; daily routine with meals, potty, nap and bedtimes, etc.; your dog's personality and preferred toys and play activities; and anything else you feel I need to know.
A typical day
Each day will vary based on your dog's daily routine. Once known, I will customize time for meals, walks, play, and rest. I'll brush and massage during pamper time. Photos will be taken and sent to you through the app regularly during the day so you can always feel assured your pet is in good hands and is happy.
