Retired and home full time

Im a middle aged female and newly retired who deeply enjoys being surrounded by dogs. I have a great work ethic and I love to stay busy and interactive, but of course if you prefer me to be snuggly and warm it wouldnt be an issue ;) I live next to the Ahnappe trail and Im very active. If you like, we can walk every night. I have a great sense of safety and Im always watching, never ignoring. I take into uniform the requests of you, and I follow them whole heartedly. If you like them on your bed at night...so do I.

Susan and her partner were so sweet with Gary! He’s a quirky rescue dog, but they were understanding and accommodating and loving with him - he quickly became part of their family! When I went to pick him up, he was frolicking around and following Susan as if they’ve been buddies forever. Would absolutely recommend!

Excellent! Susan and her husband took great care of our Bailey. They were warm, caring and attentive. It was evident they are dog lovers. We will certainly be using them again. Thanks again!

Susan and her family are amazing! Right away I knew my two dogs were going to be well cared for. She really knows how to work with dogs and started with them right away on learning the yard and where to go potty. Her whole family was hands-on with my dogs and welcomed them into a loving home. Her house and yard are beautiful and perfectly set-up for dogs. She took my boys for walks, cuddled with them, and sent tons of pictures. They were so happy and well cared for. I can't say enough good things about how great of a person she is and what a good time my dogs had with her. I will absolutely be using her again!

Susan is an amazing dog caregiver. She loves each dog as if her own, and makes sure they are happy , secure, and comfortable at her home. She encourages sending of information prior to their visit so she can get to know them before they come. She is attentive, caring, loving, to each dog. We have 2 older dogs, 1 with some special needs. She was extremely attentive to make sure his needs were met and had no problem in meeting his needs. We don't leave our dogs often, and I was extremely nervous and sad to have to leave them for 10days. She provided loving care to our dogs that exceeded our expectations. She updated us with pictures and texts ; our dogs definitely felt secure and were happy. Her husband also loves dogs and our dogs loved Susan and her husband back. When we came to pick them up, our dogs immediately came and snuggled with us, and also went over to snuggle with Susan and her husband . There was no question in our mind our dogs were thoroughly content and happy at Susan's home. I would highly recommend Susan for care of your special furbaby. . She is terrific, and our dogs think so too!

Susan was terrific. We can certainly tell when our little guy has been happy or sad when we're away and his time with Susan he let us know that he was very happy! She and her "family" are so warm and welcoming it as though he didn't want to go home with us. Susan will be our home away from home for Brandy!

Small dogs tend to stress out a bit more when their owner is away, and I relieve that stress by giving them a loving home as if you were never away. Larger dogs are taken care of the way they need to be cared for. If they are active, I am active. If they are old, they are loved unconditionally!
