Reliable, Safe Sitter Available!

Pet care experience

I’ve been around animals from the time that I was born. From squirrels, mice, dogs, cats, horses, I’ve been around it all! I have experience in fostering dogs with serious illnesses and special needs. Our own dog, Lily, became special needs as she got older. I administered medicine, medical baths, grooming, and basic first aid. Another one of my dogs, Morgana, came to us with severe cherry eye, infections in both ears, an infected spay scar, and alopecia. With this experience, I learned two things. How to care for these special dogs, and how much they can do for us. I also volunteer at the Northeast Wildlife Coalition, where I’ve had the opportunity to work with an assortment of sick wild animals. Because of this, I now know how to give proper first aid to animals. In addition, I’ve had the opportunity to train both my and family friends’ puppies! I’ve also worked with a service dog trainer who’s given me some valuable information! But above all, I really enjoy the company of all animals (especially dogs!) And would love to talk with you about how I can help you care for your fur-babies!

Scotti was fabulous! My dogs loved her! She stayed the night with my pups for the Thanksgiving weekend and everything was awesome! I would definitely have her again!

Scotti is so wonderful with my dogs. She’s very attentive to them. I never have to worry when we’re away! She even checks in with me to give updates.

Scotti has watched Boots twice and been fantastic! She takes great care of him with good walks and lots of attention. She watched him in my home and was a great house guest, too. Everything was neat and clean when I returned. Will absolutely book with Scotti again!

Very good with animals. Courteous to us, arrived as scheduled and took great care of Jack. It was very obvious that there was a genuine between dog sitter and dog instantly. Will definitely be using again.

Safety, trust & environment

No matter where I am, I always offer loving and safe environment! As I've said before, I try to keep as close to the owners routine as humanly possible! I find that this reduces and added stress or anxiety with having a new person be in their home!

Information Scotti H. would like to know about your pet

The most important is always any critical medical needs or allergies. The second most important is their routine. Dogs love routine more than we know so I try to keep as close to what they're used to as possible! Then of course I always want to know about behavioral differences such as how they do around dogs, around food, around other people, will going on walks etc.

A typical day

I believe every dog is unique, so they deserve a unique experience! It's about staying in the comfort zone of both the dog and owner while still getting proper stimulation. Some dogs don't do well while out and about so it's better to find at-home activities such as licking mats, food puzzles or even just a good old fashioned game of fetch! While other dogs require multiple walks and very active play! I love taking dogs to the beach if they're comfortable with that, or even the dog park to make some new friends!
