Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When I am at a client's home, I make sure to take detailed notes about my new pet client's daily routine and needs. I send detailed updates to my pet clients parents to let them know how their furry family members are doing. I always ensure that the home is safe for the pet before I leave from my visit. I make sure that pets have safe access to water, food, and a comfortable place to rest. I also ask their pet parents if they or their pets have any food allergies. I make sure to check the floor for any items a pet may have gotten into while their pet parents were away. When I leave always make sure all doors are secure

Susan is our go to. She’s basically our pets’ god mother 🤣. Not only is she a phenomenal pet sitter with cute pics and updates.. But her knowledge of animal behavior is impeccable. 100/10 recommend her to pet sit as well as training sessions. She’s been with us since we first brought our puppy home and has made such a positive impact on her behavior. I always tell my friends/family about her!❤️

We were very happy with Susan as a pet sitter. She was very attentive to and engaging with our dog, followed all our instructions, and sent a nice amount of text updates and photos of Bruno. We highly recommend Susan.

Schedule

I offer 30-minute drop-in visits for dogs, cats, small mammals, reptiles, and birds. I provide dog walk and backyard play sessions for dogs. I am available during the week and on the weekends to provide morning, mid-day, evening, and overnight visits for your pets. I am also available to stay overnight with your pets two nights in a row. Due to my own pets needs I am not able to accommodate more than two overnights in a row. However, if your dog is able to spend one night on their own, I am able to stay a total of three nights. I would stay overnight with your pup the first two days, on the third day provide day services only (3-5 visits), and then on the fourth day spend the last night with your pup.

I like to make sure all pets are up to date with their required vaccinations and if they are microchipped. I will ask them for their veterinarian's contact information and an emergency contact if I am not able to get of hold of them while I am caring for their pet. if their dog or cat has any known allergies, health conditions, including fear and anxiety. I ask them if their dog has any leash reactivity to other dogs, people, loud vehicles, skateboards. I will ask them if their dog is afraid of fireworks or thunderstorms.
