Highlights
Pet care experience
Pets love my home! It’s vacation!
I’ve owned dogs and cats of all ages and sizes in addition to rescuing injured race horses that would otherwise have been put down. Because in retirement I travel from time to time, I now choose pet sitting to satisfy my need for pets in my life.

Ratings and reviews
Susan was great with our 2 dogs. She was kind, confident and dependable and always communicated clearly so we knew what was happening. She handled some challenging situations with calm grace and we knew the whole time the dogs were in great hands. Thanks Susan!


Never have I felt more comfortable leaving my senior, medically complex dog with someone. I picked up Shadow only to find him snuggled on her couch and sleeping soundly. It warmed my heart. Thank you, Susan.

Susan was wonderful with Maple. She made sure we were comfortable with everything, listened to all our concerns, and worked with us to make it a great fit. She gave Maple space to settle in, followed our instructions closely, and kept us updated the whole time. Thank you, Susan!
Susan was a phenomenal sitter to our six year old husky mix. Very communicative, flexible and kind. Our pup came home tail wagging and happy. He looks forward to his next stay with Susan.

Susan was great, her and Teddy seemed to bond pretty quickly, and he loved the yard. Maybe next time he’ll get that squirrel in the back yard!

Dash had a great time Susan watching him was so helpful for us She went above what we were expecting Thank you

Schedule
I’m retired now so pet care is easy to fit into my routine. My home in Sonoma is situated on three acres of fenced and gated yard. Animals love to run and play here!! Since I don’t have pets myself my home is perfect for them to be indoors too.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced and gated yard for pets to play in however I prefer having pets in the house at night for their safety.
A typical day
I am happy to play with dogs to stimulate them mentally and help them burn off energy. Having said this I prefer to do so on my fenced, gated, three acre property rather than walking them outside my property. I live on Napa Road, a very busy thoroughfare and find it safer for pets to be entertained on my property. There is a lot of room for running, jumping and playing.
