Availability
I have extensive experience caring for pets of all sizes and breeds. I work full-time with a flexible schedule, and my job is very close to home, which allows me to come home for potty breaks and walks as needed during the day. I’m also available full weekends, giving pets plenty of companionship, playtime, and care when their owners are away. I prioritize a safe, loving, and structured environment, and I tailor walks, play, and rest to each pet’s individual needs.

Safety, trust & environment
I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets, whether in my home or at a client’s home. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live on a golf course in a quiet, very walkable neighborhood, perfect for regular walks and outdoor play. My two friendly, well-socialized dogs enjoy meeting new companions, but I’m also able to keep pets separate if needed. I tailor each pet’s routine to their individual needs, including walks, playtime, meals, potty breaks, and plenty of attention.

Information Summer S. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or medications that support them. Oral and injectable are no problem. I want to make sure they are cared for and comfortable while they're in my care.
A typical day
I love to take my dogs on adventures where they can experience the world through all of their senses. Smell new things and get the wiggles out while we do. Nothing makes me more satisfied than a tired pup crashing out on the couch after a fun day.

20+ years animal trainer
Pet care experience
Hi there! I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them. I spent over 20 years as a professional horse trainer, which gave me tons of experience handling animals of all sizes and personalities. I’ve cared for everything from tiny lap dogs to high-energy working breeds — and I love them all! At one point, I had five dogs when I had the property for them to run and play, so I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and part of the family. These days, my two dogs are happy seniors who enjoy a luxurious retirement. Now that my kids are grown, I have plenty of time to give your dogs the attention, walks, and affection they deserve. I offer overnight boarding and day visits, and I have my own transportation, making drop-offs and pickups easy. Your pets will be treated like my own — with patience, care, and lots of love. 💛
Reviews
Summer is fantastic! She was very caring and communicative, and she made sure Finn felt comfortable the whole time we were gone. I will definitely use her again!
Summer is the absolute best! She is the loveliest, kindest human and the ultimate animal lover. I trust her completely, which makes being away from your pets so much easier. My only concern is they may end up liking her even more than us 😊 I would recommend Summer 1,000 times over!
Summer is very responsible. She has cared for others horses and dogs for many years. She is reliable and easy to communicate with. She puts 100 percent effort in the care for others animals. She has cared for my own dogs for about 20 years. She has lots of experience with caring for and training animals. I have also met her personal dogs who are so well mannered when walking them. I highly recommend Summer as a caregiver for animals.
Summer is extremely reliable and trustworthy and Loves animals. She has been taking care of animals of all types for practically her entire life. She is very knowledgeable and has spent a lot of time studying about care. I would recommend Summer, without restraint of any sort, to take excellent care of one’s animals.
