Pet care experience
I'm a Dog Whisperer!
I was raised with dogs but it wasn't till 2006 that my love of animals turned into a passion for dogs. I was blessed to get a Newfoundland, the "gentle giant", and signed up for all levels of training. With time, the family grew to 3 Newfs and 1 long haired mini dachshund. I trained all of them to the level of Therapy Dog! I enjoy training dogs especially when they are puppies I am retired so I am home all the time with the exception of running errands, having a lunch date, doctor's appointment, or walking my dogs! I am fenced both front and back. We enjoy catching balls or snow balls depending on the season. There are 3 lovely parks by my house and walking paths surrounding it!

Ratings and reviews
Super reliable and very communicative! Cooper always comes home happy and tired!
Susan is very kind, determined, and was wonderful with Mochi and accommodated his special needs. She sent us regular updates and made sure our baby was well taken care of. A 10/10 sitter and a 100/10 human!
Susan was amazing! She took such great care of my boys and kept me updated throughout! I will be booking with her again!
Susan is such a wonderful sitter , She’s cared for our pup hundreds of times over the past few months, and we always feel completely at ease leaving our dog with her.
Susan was really wonderful with our needy KaiXin. We're definitely going to book again with her.
Susan was a wonderful host for my little Oliver! I was keen to book with her because she has two dachshunds herself and they're certainly a breed that has a lot of quirks. My Oliver turned 3 while with her and she went out of her way to get him some birthday treats and make him feel loved. She was great with communication and sending pictures, which was much appreciated. I'll absolutely be booking with her again! :)

Schedule
I have been fully retired for sometime now. Therefore I have the tine to work with young dogs to be polite like not jumping up on people, heel, loose leash walk, owner leaving the house first, "leave it" command, etc..

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
The day begins with saying hello, greeting each other, getting a treat and going outside to run around and get exercise! Then they come inside and check out the basket of toys. Eventually they take a nap while I do my morning chores. In the afternoon everyone gets a good walk going to the various parks in my neighborhood. Each dog gets a private walk until I know their personality. We play catch with a ball or a snow ball and then nap again .It makes for a wonderful day......weather permitting!

A typical day
My home is near extensive walking paths in my neighborhood, Villa Park. These paths surround 3 beautiful parks. I also have a front and back yard that is grassed and fenced. I love playing ball (snow or tennis ) and I have a huge basket full of toys!
