Pet care experience

Responsible Loving Pet Care in Home

My husband and I have sold our farm and relocated back to our home town for retirement. Our beloved dog passed away last year after a long and happy life with us. We miss her! Here’s an opportunity for you to have a responsible comfortable home for your beloved dog in your absence. Our home is located in town with sidewalks and access to numerous walking trails nearby. I have a small herd of dairy goats in our backyard and I make cheese and yogurt. We are a happy responsible family who will enjoy the opportunity to meet your dog. I hope you will come and check us out to ensure the best possible care for your beloved pup.

Susan was an amazing sitter for our dog. She's very clear and careful to make sure she understands everything and anything your dog might need or expect while you're away. So by the time you leave your dog with her, you feel completely confident that your dog will have exactly what they need while you're away. She's also just a natural and handled my dog like an expert. And warm and caring to my dog as well. My dog had a great time and came home relaxed and happy. Highly recommend Susan as a caregiver, she's without a doubt the best!

Susan and Doug are the best! It's like dropping you child off with caretakers who love them and treat them like they are home. VERY HIGHLY RECCOMEND. Excellent communication too.

I’m very pleased with Susan and her husband. They went out of their way and were very patient with my sometimes anxious dogs. The kind of dog people you want to leave your babies with! Will definitely use again.

Susan was great! She took Daisy out on long walks and runs and sent us lots of pictures. I could tell that Daisy had great care while with Susan. I would recommend her to others!

We went on a work trip abroad and Susan and Doug accompanied and took really great care of our rat terrier, Max. They consistently send us photos and updates making sure that we are sync with Max's daily activities. They spent a lot of time with Max walking, daily exercise and playing with him, along with their grandkids. They have treated Max as their family. Thanks so much for your help, very grateful for you both! Max had a wonderful time! Highly Recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Safety, trust & environment

Our comfortable home is open plan. We like to spend time outside and routinely walk around out village. Local wooded walking and hiking trails are close by. I am happy to send daily photos of your pup so you’ll know how they’re doing. I prefer to meet you and your pup prior to the stay if possible to ensure a good fit and full understanding of the care required to ensure the best possible care.

A typical day

We’ll take your furry friend for walks so they can explore the sights and scents of Bethel. We’ll also love to take walks in the woods or hike local trails if your pup is up for this. We’re happy to play!
