Information Susan H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any special needs or directions for your dog so I can take great care of them. I usually like to meet the pet and pet owner ahead of time to make sure we are a good fit and to get to know location of leashes, treats, etc.

A typical day

I can follow your dog’s direction on a walk or guide them to a new place. I can play fetch or even work on training that you have started.

Loving dog care while you are away!

Pet care experience

I have had dogs all my life and mostly Golden Retrievers. My last Golden was a therapy dog and we enjoyed weekly visits to a nearby nursing home. I have taken numerous training courses to be the best dog trainer and dog parent I can be. Ultimately I feel dogs are individuals with their own personalities and needs but that they all want love and respect. I recently adopted a sweet dachshund and he has given me a great new appreciation for small breeds. I work from home, volunteer in the community and, I am extremely reliable and respectful. I am a very active person- so any length and speed of walk is all good!

Highly recommend! Susan is dependable, caring, and great with my dog Pete. I always knew Pete was safe & happy while in her care. Couldn't ask for a better dog walker!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
