A dog lover who lives with cats!

Pet care experience

I'm a dog and cat focused Realtor who volunteers at King Street Cats in Alexandria, pet sits for my real estate clients and believes that fur babies are central to a happy family life. I've worked with animals in a volunteer capacity since 2004. I love them, love being around them and love interacting with them! I've worked with big and small dogs and various breeds (Yorkies to overweight chocolate Labs and Great Danes). I have a special fondness for BLACK DOGS and BLACK CATS! I'm experienced with administering medications, doing vet runs, calming nervous dogs and kitties. I have some experience with rabbits and birds, hamsters and guinea pigs, fish and small lizards. I'm looking forward to meeting your "kids"and getting to know them.

Susan is such an amazing sitter. She takes great care of my mature cat and administers medications for his arthritis. She stays overnight in my home because he gets too lonely otherwise. I know he feels better with her there because he’s much less sad when I return home from a trip. Thank you Susan!

Susan took great care of our elderly cat, Maggie. They had great visits and conversations and Maggie was mellow and not mad at us when we returned.

Susan was great! The kitties were fed and happy and she communicated with me every day to let me know how they were doing. I would definitely use her again.

Information Susan B. would like to know about your pet

No breed preference. Dogs need to be obedience trained and walk well on a leash. Want to know about your dog's energy level so I am prepared. Also whether your dog needs medication

A typical day

I live and work in Old Town Alexandria. If you have a fenced in yard, I love to throw balls and play catch with your dog. We will explore your neighborhood and your dog's favourite haunts
