Sue was amazing - responsive, friendly, and punctual. A caring, wonderful sitter who genuinely loves dogs. We are very happy we found Sue and we can’t wait to book with her again. Thank you, Sue.

We think she is amazing!!! Huge thank you to Sue for taking such wonderful care of our two fur babies, all the sweet updates and massive smiles in each picture! She wore them out every day with play time, spoiled them and left our house spotless! Followed our established routines seamlessly, and we returned to two very happy, content and relaxed pups! We will definitely be booking her again for our next pup staycation while we are out of town!

Susan was absolutely amazing! I wish I could rate her 11/10!! She stayed with my dogs as I asked and gave them lots of love and attention. I never worried once while we were on our trip. She sent daily videos and pictures and even helped water my flowers for me. Susan was prompt and had great communication. I can’t wait to use her services some more and so grateful to have found her!!

I've used Susan for a few years until she moved away. And since she left I've gone through many dog sitters and no one comes close to the love and care Susan gives to pets! I highly recommend her.

Whether you're heading out of town or simply need someone to watch over your furry friends, I’m here to ensure your pets receive the attention, love, and care they deserve while you're away. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, and as a pet owner myself, I treat every animal as if they were my own.

Please share your pet's feeding schedule, any dietary restrictions, and allergies with me. Additionally, it would be helpful to have your emergency contacts and veterinary details. If you could also tell me about their favorite toys and comfort items, that would really help me create a familiar and safe environment for your beloved family member. Thank you!
