My Loving Way to make your dogs day

Pet care experience

I have over 30 years of dog experience which includes working for a veterinary in regular practice and specialty care. I have been active in rescue's and am also certified in pet loss to help others thru that very sad part of loving our pets. All of our friends and family claim if they come back as dogs, they want to live at our house! I am a stay at home dog mom and my dog loving husband works from home..Which makes my schedule very flexible so I can care for your pet too. I am good with all breeds. Older pets that need medical attention or assistance for getting around is very close to my heart. I have taken in many older, challenged dogs from shelters and rescues, introduced them to our pack and loved them to the end, which sadly has been much too short more than a few times. We are also official foster failures. When I care for your beloved pet, I will follow your directions given at our meet and greet exactly. I will bring in mail, packages and water plants at no extra charge. All poops are cleaned up immediately and pets are monitored when out doors. While your pet is in my care, I will send you an update with photos to let you know every thing is going fine. If I have questions I will contact you right away to make sure your pet stays happy and safe while under my care. I can come out during the week for short visits, or come over to sit while you are out on the town, especially if you have an elderly dog that needs to be watched or is anxious when left alone. That way you can fully enjoy your time away from home without worrying.. and believe me, I know what that is all about. I do not take pet care lightly, it's a serious job and takes great responsibility to make sure every Rover pet is happily waiting for you when you get home. Please contact me for a meet and greet

Susan is amazing!!! She is great with our pup and it is nice knowing someone you can trust is there to look after your dog. Plus she is so understanding when I book last minute! I don't think I could use anyone else!!!

Extremely prepared in every detail and step of the process and we felt very reassured with her caring for our 2 dogs. They were very comfortable with Susan- highly recommend!

Information Susan C. would like to know about your pet

If they are fearful or have anxiety separation. I like to meet with the at their own home before showing up to care for them and soon they look forward to seeing me, many meeting at the door with a toy for me. I love the transformation when they realize I am showing up not to rob their home, but to calm them, let them out to relieve themselves and give some quality calm time or lots of play, which ever is their favorite, and many times both are!

A typical day

My dog sitting style is that of calm and positive vibes. I can be stern when needed having had German Shepherds all of my life.
