I will make sure to feed, groom, walk, play and medicate your pets as needed. I’m very comfortable with most breeds and love making animals happy.

Please inform me of your pet’s age, athletic capabilities, favorite foods, allergies, medications, temperament level, tricks they adore, and favorite nearby parks. Include any other way I can make your pet’s day.

A typical day

Fun activities I do with dogs include fetch, belly rubs, small jogs, treats and water breaks Fun activities I do with cats include treats, fetch (sometimes only I do the fetching), tricks (I love teaching cats tricks!), nap time, toy play. The typical day will include a balance of fun mixed with rest, depending on the age and capabilities of each individual animal.

Susan has had many animals in her life. She is gentle and consistent in taking care of their needs of fresh food, water, exercise and attention. Reminder alarms are kept on her phone for feeding and walking schedules, so that her pets get into a routine to lessen their anxiety. She will do a great job with Rover. I wish her the best, John
