Had dogs my entire life.

Pet care experience

i have worked for Rover for the past 3 years, after my 2 Pomeranians died of old age. Prior to that I worked for another dog care service. I have had dogs all my life, since childhood. I truly have enjoyed watching all types of dogs during the past 3 years and have always treated them as if they were my own. Recently I did get my own dog, an 8 lb. Pomeranian long haired chihuahua mix. He is still acclimating to his new environment and is not yet comfortable with new guest dogs. I do plan to continue dog sitting again once I see he is more comfortable and settled in. I live in a small duplex home with a small backyard. I'm home most hours of the day and evening. My specialty is with small size dogs. I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood. I will go out of my way to make your pet feel welcome.

Susan was wonderful with my dog Princeton. He gets very excited outside and can be a handful but she handled him very well! I appreciate all the time she spent with him and love she gave him.

Susan was absolutely wonderful with my 11 year old Jack Russell/Chihuahua, Precious, who has severe separation anxiety issues due to a very recent loss of a family member and move across the country to live with her aunt in LA. I was certain after the initial meet & greet that Precious would take a minute to warm up to Susan but would ultimately be in very good hands with her. As it turned out, Precious whined a lot during the first few hours but wound up doing really well that evening and was completely fine when I arrived the following night to pick her up. I could tell she was a lot more comfortable with Susan and everything worked out fine. Susan updated me frequently throughout her stay and texted photos of my Precious relaxed, which definitely helped me relax. They went on long walks and sat on her backyard swing together. I ride a motorcycle and have frequent trips out of town, so I will definitely be bringing Precious to stay with Susan again soon.

I am so grateful for Susan! My dog Riggy stayed with her for two weeks and I could tell she was very well taken care of and had a lot of fun. I really appreciated Susan’s communication and loved the photos she shared during my pup’s stay! Thank you so much Susan!

Susan was very sweet. We met before agreeing to begin the sitting stage. Susan asked lots of great questions to be as informed as possible. Overall Hendricks was in good care.

Information Susan M. would like to know about your pet

I want to be sure the dog is housebroken, doesn't chew furniture and is not a biter or constant barker. My preferences are small dogs as I have a small dog who is 8 lbs.

A typical day

I will go on long walks around the neighborhood. I will discuss particulars with the client and do what they are used to doing with their dog.
