Safety, trust & environment
Providing a safe environment is my top priority when caring for your dog. I understand how important it is to leave your pet in a home where they will feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for. My home is designed with dogs in mind and includes cozy dog beds in a variety of shapes and sizes, plenty of toys for play and enrichment, fresh filtered bottled water, and an air purifier to help maintain a clean and comfortable environment. Dogs have access to a fully fenced yard where they can safely run, play, and get their daily exercise. They are never left without regular potty breaks and outdoor time, with opportunities to go outside every 2–4 hours throughout the day.

Information Susan L. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, concerns, medical requirements, or unique quirks. Every dog is different, and I'm happy to work with you to create the best experience for your pet so they can have fun while staying safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I also have extensive experience caring for dogs with separation anxiety. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful for some dogs, and I strive to provide a calm, loving, and structured environment that helps them feel secure and at ease during their stay. Through patience, attention, companionship, and plenty of positive reinforcement, I work to make each dog feel like part of the family. My goal is to ensure both you and your dog have peace of mind, knowing they are receiving personalized care tailored to their individual needs.
A typical day
Every dog is unique, and I believe it's important to get to know each dog's individual personality, preferences, and routine. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, happy, and right at home while they're with us. A typical day includes plenty of attention, companionship, and activity. Dogs usually enjoy 2–4 walks per day, depending on their energy level and needs. We live in a quiet, highly walkable neighborhood with minimal traffic, making it perfect for safe and enjoyable walks. We also have a fully fenced yard where we've created our own little dog park. It's the perfect space for dogs to socialize, run, explore, play, and burn off energy in a safe environment. In between walks and play sessions, there is plenty of time for relaxation. I make sure dogs have opportunities to rest, nap, and recharge throughout the day, helping them maintain a healthy balance of activity and downtime. Whether your dog loves adventure, playtime, or simply lounging around and receiving affection, we'll tailor their day to their individual needs and make sure they receive the love, care, and attention they deserve.

He is truly the love of my life! Through Frankie, I've met so many wonderful dogs and their owners, and I've gained years of experience dog sitting, walking, feeding, and caring for pets of all personalities. My husband and I are a dedicated husband-and-wife team who treat every dog like family. Frankie is very social and loves making new furry friends, so your pup will have a fun companion during their stay. Whether your dog enjoys adventures or prefers relaxing at home, we'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. We love planning dog-friendly adventures, including walks, hikes, and visits to local dog parks. If your dog prefers a quieter pace, we're equally happy spending the day relaxing at home together. Our goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you're away, giving you peace of mind knowing they're in loving hands.
Reviews
Susan and her husband are AMAZING! I was extremely stressed trying to find someone to watch Mochi at the last minute but Susan responded quickly, was incredibly flexible, and worked with me every step of the way. Throughout Mochi's stay, she sends regular updates and photos, which I absolutely loved. Mochi absolutely adores them. I highly highly recommend!
Another WONDERFUL stay! Our doggies love Susan and her other guests as well’
Susan made me feel at ease immediately. She has a great set up to make pups feel comfortable. She sent several photos throughout the day so I knew my boy was fine. I highly recommend Susan and will definitely call her again when needed. Thank you!
My dog really loves staying at Susan's. Thamk you!!
