I will provide ample playtime and walks for your pets based on their needs. I will also make sure to leave your home neat and clean at the end of my visit/stay. I love to send lots of photos and updates to ensure your peace of mind.
Ratings and reviews
I hate to tell people how great Susan is as a petsitter because then she’ll be all booked up the next time I need her. But seriously, I literally have a zoo and Susan has been fantastic both times I used her. This last time she overnighted a week. Epileptic dog and cat needing chemotherapy pills were no problem for Susan. We have a reactive Aussie who she made fall in love with her. Tons and tons of pictures, one of which is my new screensaver. Susan sometimes works in tandem with her husband Edwin who is great at pilling too. I thoroughly recommend her and she will be my go to petsitter 💜




Susan was great with my two cats for drop in visits! She sent plenty of photos, was very communicative, and responded quickly. She was able to get my shy kitten out from hiding in a couple of days. Would definitely book with her again!


Susan is fantastic! She stepped up and helped us short notice after a last minute cancellation. I was worried about leaving our elderly kitty for a week with someone new. She sent lots of photos and is wonderful at communicating. I will definitely be booking with her again!

Susan did a great job administering meds and showing through pictures how she interacted with my cat. Would definitely recommend working with Susan!

Susan was great! She communicated well and was very responsive to messages. She is responsible and cared well for Coco. Will definitely book again!
Susan is great! I was getting multiple daily updates and pics of my dog Lobo, and he really enjoyed his time with Susan!
