Availability
I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. Walking dogs is a great way to get exercise. I go on hikes occasionally and your dog can join if s/he wants.

About Susan D.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'll treat your pet and your home with care. Happy to water plants and take in the packages too. I know how to sneak medicine into treats or food if needed.
Information Susan D. would like to know about your pet
What's their eating schedule? How are they on the leash? Do they sleep in a crate? Pee and poop schedule? Anything that scares them? How are they with new people?
A typical day
Happy to let them sniff or keep them trotting on walks depending on your preferences. I can make up lots of games and enrichment for them (hide and seek with a toy, tug, treats in a toilet paper roll, toy in a box, egg on a licky mat etc) to keep your baby entertained.

Pet care experience
I've had dogs and cats since I was a kid. Have taught old dogs new tricks. I have a reactive dog now (pandemic puppy) and have learned a lot from professional trainers and Animal Behavior Wellness Center about the benefits of enrichment and sniffing
Reviews

Susan is a great communicator—I love her daily report with photos—and is great at incentivizing my dog, who enjoys her visits.

Susan is fantastic! She always sends photos and a message about what was unique about each visit. I feel lucky to have her caring for my dog.

We just love Susan!!! She's so easy to book with and Aries clearly adores her. 10/10 would book every time

Susan goes above and beyond! Very respectful and professional. We are repeat clients and highly recommend
