Trustworthy, Loving, & Flexible!
Hi there! Spending time apart from our furry friends can be hard, so I understand the importance of finding someone you can trust to love and care for them the way you do! Your pet deserves a companion that will shower them with affection and adoration while making sure they meet their every need. Lucky for you, I’m available to ensure your pet gets all of that and more! Growing up, my mother was allergic to dogs and cats so we weren't able to have a pet at home. Being the animal lover I am, this meant I was always over at my neighbors' houses volunteering to walk their dogs or play with them in the yard. When I finally moved out on my own, I adopted the sweetest little kitten named Beatrice. She is full of sass and always ready to play but when the sun goes down it’s cuddle time and she never leaves my lap. I've always wanted a dog, but feel it's best to wait until I live in a house with a big yard. While I'm waiting for that dream to come true, I'll continue curing my puppy fever by helping with the neighbor's dogs. Whether it’s a cat, dog, bunny, or hampster... life with pets is simply better! I am the go-to person within my group of friends whenever they need a hand with their dog. I have come to love them each as if they were my own. I am hoping to take advantage of my open schedule to get some puppy play time and have a wonderful excuse to get outside rain or shine.

Safety, trust & environment
Sadly, I cannot have a dog with my current living situation. When I watch friends' dogs, I follow the typical structure they have set up for their animals in order to avoid confusion. I'd be happy to follow instructions on whatever is best for your dog! My cat, Beatrice, is an indoor only cat and roams around the house freely. She's fed a mix of wet and dry food and her long hair is brushed daily to keep her beautiful and healthy! We have 15 minutes of playtime every morning before I leave and at least another 30 minutes of active play when I get home in the evenings.
Ratings and reviews
Susan was great. She left the house in great shape (even washed sheets/towels) and the dogs were well cared for. We got updates and pics all weekend. We look forward to using her again!
We just returned from a week long trip out of the country to a clean house and happy, well cared for dogs. Susan does such a great job every time we are away. Our dogs love spending time with her and she takes them on lots of fun walks and adventures. She sends us regular updates with sweet photos. While we were away, one of our dogs needed to see the vet and Susan was so attentive and helpful with the whole process. She helped us call to make appointments since we had a large time change, took him to two appointments while we were away, and communicated the vet's orders and started his medication. This is above and beyond and was so reassuring to us while we were gone. Thank you, Susan for everything you do.
Once again, Susan was amazing and kept our little ones feeling so happy and loved!
Susan watched our two dogs while we were out of town for a weekend wedding. I cannot recommend her enough. She sent regular
This was our first trial run with Susan before two upcoming trips. The overnight went so well! She sent updates, was really responsive when I checked in, house clean when we arrived home. It makes me feel so much better knowing I can relax on my upcoming trip with my dogs well cared for at home!
Susan is awesome! She stayed with our two dogs for about 5 days. She gave plenty of updates and it was clear that she took great care of our pets. She also left the house completely spotless afterwards. We’ve already booked her for our next trip!
