Pet care experience

Lifelong Pet Lover

I always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood. My experience in pet care has come from having my own pets and from fostering in the past for a local rescue. With years of pet care experience, what sets me apart is my personalized approach and dedication to providing attentive and compassionate care tailored to the unique needs of pets of all ages. Whether it is managing energetic play sessions, administering medication or providing comfort during recovery, I adapt my care to each pets individual needs. I understand the leap of faith it takes to entrust your beloved pet to someone else, which is why I go above and beyond to provide a service that’s not just dependable, but also tailored to the unique personality and needs of your pet. Throughout the day I maintain open communication with pet owners, providing updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured that their pet is happy, healthy and well-cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

The safety, trust and environment of your pet is my top priority. Prior to housesitting I would request a meet & greet so I may meet you and your pet as well. I would review the daily routine of your pet that would include feeding and exercise schedule.

Susan is amazing. Through weather woes and travel chaos, she always replied immediately to my requests and harried updates. She kept my three best boys happy and my stress level down. I cannot say enough about her kindness, care, and professionalism. Thank you for everything! ❤️

I can’t recommend Susan enough! As my first time using rover in Canada she made me feel safe leaving both my fur baby and my house in her hands. Would 100% book again

Sue took great care of my two cats while I was away for the evening! Very pleased with the service she provided. Was great getting photos and an update on how they were doing 😃

I had a last minute emergency where I HAD to get my fur babies out of my apartment in 24 hours. I don’t have family or know anyone in Brandon so I am very grateful and happy with the service today. The regular updates and genuine care and attention to my fur babies made my work day alot easier. Having pets and taking them from their home can be very stressful on them but they seemed so relaxed and were well taken care of. I am not even sure Alvin wanted to leave. I would give her ten stars out of five if I could. I will definitely use this app and service again. Thank you

I couldn’t be happier with the amazing care my dog Gertie received. Throughout the day, I received updates, photos, and little notes about how Gertie was doing, which gave me total peace of mind. She got plenty of playtime, affection, and attention, and when I got home Gertie was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. From the moment we met, it was clear that Susan genuinely loves animals and understands how to make them feel safe and comfortable. I highly recommend Susan on Rover — I’ll definitely book with her again!

Schedule

Being retired provides me with the flexibility to follow the routine that you have established for your pet. My schedule is extremely flexible allowing me the opportunity to work around how I can best support you and your pet. Whether it is a morning walk, feeding time, administering medication, or some extra cuddles, I can accommodate their needs throughout the day.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Susan can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Before pet sitting, I want to know about your pet's daily routine including feeding schedule, exercise preferences, and medication schedules if applicable. I would like to know if there are any medical conditions, allergies, or dietary restrictions. I want to know about your pet's temperament, personality any behavioural quirks or anxieties, and what triggers them. What are their likes and dislikes (toys and activities). By gathering these details ahead of time, I can ensure they are comfortable while you are away.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
