I am currently working part time at home so I am available to take care of your pet most days and your furbabies will get a ton of attention from me! I only accept 2 dogs at a time so that they get more attention from me and not get lost in the crowd.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small fenced yard that your dog can hang out in with my senior dog. My dog and cats often hang out in the yard getting some sun bathing session or inside with me hanging out keeping each other company. My home is a very relaxed setting and I want my clients to have relaxed time as well. I live in an apartment so I limit to 2 dogs and can't have big dogs at my place but I would be happy to house sit at client's house for big dogs.

Information Sue H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know any quirks your pet has so I can best prepare for their needs. I do have a senior dog and cats at home, so if boarding, I can only accept pets who can get along with cats and a small dog. As mine are seniors, I do not want to stress them out, so they need to be left alone most of the time. I live in an apartment, so I cannot board dogs that barks excessively. My cats are very comfortable with dogs and they will not flinch at the sight of them.

A typical day

I love playing with dogs with toys and using treats as rewards and do some training sessions. I'm not an expert trainer but I have had success with few dogs with simple tricks. I also love going on long walks with dogs and get our daily exercises. My dog Lucky, at the age of 14, loves her long walks and demands her daily 30-45 min walks. And I must oblige! There is a dog park nearby and I love taking the dogs to the dog park and let them run free and have fun.

Sue was very friendly and responsive when we requested help to watch over our two cats on a shorter notice before the holiday weekend. She was great at communicating and keeping us updated, and we would recommend highly recommend her.

It was our first time leaving our Frenchie and Sue made it easy to do so! She sent me updates throughout the day to let us know how he was doing and what he was up to! Would def recommend Sue! 😊

I would be asking her again when I need help. She was wonderful. I had many requests during a one hour visit and she did everything! My baby also seemed she had a good time with her. Thank you!

We had such a great experience with Sue and are incredibly grateful! She stepped in on very late notice and truly saved our ski trip. From the start, communication was easy and reassuring. Our German Shepherd can be a handful, but Sue handled her with confidence and care. She made sure our dog got plenty of exercise with regular walks, and it was clear she was happy and comfortable the entire time. We really appreciated the updates and the attention she gave her.
