Respectful intuitive care
Pet care experience
I have always lived with dogs. I cherished my darling dog for 16 years and now have time to use my passion for dogs to contribute to others, both two and four paw’d. I believe in putting the dogs’ needs first, loving and working with them at play and at rest to ensure a happy, secure and loyal friend who is a joy to be with. i adopted a 3 year old Maltese in 2023, he is a sweetheart and well used to having other dogs visit.
Reviews
Shelby had a great afternoon with Sue and Duke with lots of walks, snacks and playtime. Thanks Sue for watching her and we will definitely look forward to booking you again in the future.
Sue is a phenomenal dog sitter. She really went above and beyond our expectations. Ziggy was only with her for the day but Sue took him on several walks and outings and was with him the entire time. She sent lots of photos and updates throughout the day and even sent a super cute video of his stay at the end. Do not hesitate to book with Sue. She is super loving and caring towards dogs and is just such a good person. Also, bonus she has such an amazing location if you are leaving the island via ferry or air. Would book her again in a heartbeat. Thanks again Sue!
I am so happy I found Sue. It was my puppy’s first time away overnight and I was nervous and feeling guilty. Sue is such a lovely person and loves dogs. She cared so well for Charlie and loved him up while we were away. She sent me photos and updates while we were gone and a video montage of his time after the stay! I am sooooooo happy i found Sue and have already rebooked her for 9 days in April. I will have no hesitation leaving Charlie for his own mini holiday this time!
Sue took very good care of our small Morkie Coco. We had not left Coco with anyone before and Sue was gentle and patient with her. Coco felt right at home with Sue which made it easier to leave her while we went on our trip.

Safety, trust & environment
My home has a semi-fenced back yard with grass for immediate potty needs although I much prefer to go out with the dogs walking several times a day. When at home, your dog will receive love and attention, be free to roam (unless destructive behaviours are noted) and sleep peacefully on a cushy bed. If expected, a crate can be used, but I don’t require it. Feeding per their usual schedule, along with treats for good behaviour, and a toy basket to rummage through, explore and play. Your dog will not be left alone in the home.

Information Sue R. would like to know about your pet
Please advise of any behavioural traits, for example, is your dog nervous around other dogs or strangers? Shy or highly socialized? Like to chase cats, squirrels, birds? Energetic or lethargic? Likes beach time? Swimming? Any current or past injury or medications to note? Any allergies to note?
A typical day
I love to explore walks in the neighbourhood, trails, parks, and beaches and will take along any pup that wants do go - and no one has said “no” yet! Until I know the dog, a leash is always used to ensure safety, but off leash play and socializing with other dogs in safe, designated areas is certainly an option and encouraged after discussion with the owner.

Availability
I work part-time at the moment, so have varied availability. I love to explore the local parks and my surroundings and to dedicate time with dogs, ensuring they have a great visit.
