LOVE my furbaby and Yours!!

I've always been a dog lover & have had dogs since childhood. My latest baby is a doxie-chi mix (11 lbs) and she is the sweetest girl who brings me much joy! My fiance has a cattle dog mix (30 lbs) who is a big teddy bear too! I walk her everyday, take time to play w/ her & of course snuggle her! I truly believe dogs (& ALL animals) deserve respect & exceptional care, & I will treat your fur baby with the utmost love & care! I enjoy the different personalities of dogs and really get a kick out of watching them; they make my heart smile!! When watching your pet, I will review with you a list of questions in order to make sure I know your fur baby & their schedule, likes & dislikes.

Susan was great. Lot's of great communication before and during our pups stay. You can tell she really cares about your pub as much as her own. We didn't have a worry while our pub stayed with Susan and we will definitely ask her to watch our little girl again when we travel.

Caring and accommodating host to my dog. Sent me photos and updates on my pet’s activities and well-being. I highly recommend Susan’s pet-sitting services.

Susan was incredibly professional and just an incredible pet sitter overall. Susan was very thorough and made sure that my dogs time away from me was going to be nothing but perfect. I can’t wait to be a frequent customer! The best sitter I’ve ever had by far!

Susan is a fantastic dog sitter. She is very experienced and is very loving and caring. She adores all dogs and has taken care of mine several times. She has a lovely home with a brand new secure chain link fence in her backyard with lots of room to roam. She takes the same loving approach to my dog as she does her own little Hazel, who is sweet and small and loves company.

Susan is a loving pet owner and has compassion for all animals. I have known her since we were kids and she is one of the most caring people I know. She put a lot of thought in to adopting her own dogs and makes her current pet 's health and happiness a priority . I know she is a responsible and trustworthy person and would love and care for other pets as well as she cares for her own.

Schedule

Being a dog owner already and having a routine with my little one, taking care of other fur babies just comes naturally to me :-) My husband works from home and I am home weekdays by 2pm, so am available for dog walks as well as boarding.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard, and my yard is a great size for running & playing. I have a crate for my dog (we call it her night-night bed) but at night she sleeps with me (& thinks she owns the bed! LOL) I have an extra crate in case your furbaby would like to have a little nap there instead of on the couch or the floor. I live in a great neighborhood with new families & older families, and everyone is very friendly. We have many dogs in the neighborhood & my girl loves to go on walks to say hello to everyone.

Pets

A typical day

I have a fenced in yard & love to play toss to give your furbaby exercise. I also love to go on walks around my neighborhood for my health as well as my dogs health. We have three nice parks close to my house where we take my dog for walks on a leash. I also will give lots of love & snuggles to your furbaby! Lap-naps are the best!

Also, any dog I care for during the day (in my home) needs to be potty trained, & up to date on shots & vet visits, and be clean (ie: no rolling in the wet mud or worse, and then bringing them to my home; & yes, the 'or worse' has happened). If you don't mind them being outdoors all day at my home, then I am not so particular about what they have rolled in :-) I prefer watching one dog at a time, unless the dogs come from the same family, then I can watch more. I would need to know of any aggressive behaviors, since I have fur babies of my own & need to keep everyone safe and happy. I prefer to watch dogs in my home that are UNDER 40 pounds; please be honest about their weight and perhaps I can make an exception if your doggie is over 40 lbs. (I have made exceptions in the past, please see picture gallery). If just requesting "dog walking", then they can be bigger. I am very thorough by nature so I enjoy learning about any special needs your fur baby may have so I can give the best quality care & so you feel comfortable!
