4 the love of pets!

Pet care experience

I have had pets, as many people do, since I was a child. In 2000 I began volunteering with a local German Shepherd rescue group. That gave me great experience with large dogs, many who have been thru quite a bit, with a variety of temperaments. Additionally I have volunteered with Small Paws Rescue and worked with smaller dogs. I LOVE dogs!

We are so grateful to have found Susan! She was amazingly reliable and sent the best pictures of our pup so we were always kept up to speed on what was happening back home when we were out of town!

Susan did a great job communicating with us and sent daily updates about our pup. We would definitely work with her again.

I am a renter and would care for your pets in your home treating them with the same care and attention that I give my own pets. I believe in and try to live by the golden rule, do unto others as you would have them do to you. I would absolutely apply this to your pets as well.

Information Susan C. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know what your pets day is currently like. What toys and treats do they like that you allow. Do they have any medical issues or special needs. What is it that you are looking for.

A typical day

When I was volunteering with German Shepherd rescue, I also took a companion animal massage class and received certification. I enjoy being able to help animals relax, which has the great side effect of helping the parents relax! Massage has the same benefits for animals that it does for people, increasing circulation, reduce inflammation and pain, relieve muscle tension as well as providing emotional support.

I am self employed and my schedule varies. I have plenty of time during the day for playing and walking. Currently, I walk my dog Luna every morning and evening but we both are happy to do more.
