Pet care experience

I love caring for Fur Babies

I have a fenced in backyard and live in a quiet residential neighborhood that provides a great opportunity for walks. I have spent many years as a hobby farm enthusiast taking care of multiple species of animals, including dogs, cavies, cats, rabbits, goats (including milking) and various breeds of poultry. I have spent years as a leader of multiple 4-H groups with my children, which included dog training, agility and showmanship; Cat club; Goat club; and Rabbits clubs for showing at the local fairs.

We could not have asked for a better dog sitter! She was absolutely excellent in every way and made us feel completely comfortable and confident leaving our dogs in her care. She is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, caring, and communicative, and kept us updated throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. One of our dogs is diabetic and requires extra attention and monitoring, and she handled her care wonderfully. Most importantly, our dogs had an absolute blast and were clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for! It’s such a relief to find someone we can truly trust with them. She went above and beyond, and we will absolutely be using her again. Truly the BEST sitter in town, we cannot recommend her highly enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Susan took very good care of my Tucker. She treated him as if he was hers. I will use Susan again when I need help again.

Susan was great with our diabetic cat, showed up on time and they all enjoyed her visits! We were nervous about leaving him for a vacation and he did not do well with boarding in the past, so we were elated when this all worked about as well as it did.

Susan was wonderful! She came over to meet the cats before we went out of the country and we could tell she was an animal lover! She took great care of them while we were gone and it was nice to get pictures of the cats daily. I would definitely recommend her and would love to use her services again!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard as well as having no pets of my own currently so your fur babies would have free run of the house. If required to routine, I can do crate kenneling as well.

A typical day

I enjoy taking walks in the neighborhood with pets to explore all the sights, sounds and smells of a new area. I live near a lake that we walk to for bird watching or just to be able to walk the sidewalks available there.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

No females in heat

Let me know if your pet has special needs that require attention while in my care. I try to make the time that I have with your fur baby as stress free as possible while in my care.
