Safety, trust & environment

My daughter is a registered veterinary technician. I have four dogs of my own who love going in and out of their own doggy door to our fenced in back yard. I prefer to take care of your furbabies in my home. I can also watch your fur babies in the comfort of their own home. I start their day off with play time and breakfast and then I head home to work and take care of my own family. I look forward to our afternoon play time and then head back to visit with them before bedtime. I try and keep them on the schedule they are used to with as little disruption to their routine as possible. I do not spend the night in your home. If you prefer that I would suggest you choose boarding (in my home) instead of house sitting.

Information Susan M. would like to know about your pet

I currently own small dogs; however, before our Maltese we owned a purebred white German Shepherd. I have always loved dogs regardless of their size or breed. Before sitting or walking a dog I would just like to know what they prefer - is he/she a cuddler, or one that prefers to keep his/her distance, does he/she have a favorite toy or space, etc.

A typical day

I am familiar with dog friendly parks in and around Clermont County - Spencer Shank Park, Sycamore Park, Pierce Township Park, Cincinnati Nature Center, Woodland Mound Park, etc.

Pet care experience

I have grown up with dogs in my family. I currently have four little dogs to call my own. I am comfortable administering medication to my own pets and others. I love watching other people's pets, and I welcome them as my own. I regularly take pictures of my dogs and my friend's dogs for fun. I work full-time from home as an online teacher. I typically have holidays and the month of July off. I am mostly available in the evenings and weekends; however, depending on how close you live to my house I may be able to meet with your furry family member either before I start my day or on my lunch break. I have a fenced in yard, and we have a doggy door for our own dogs to enter and exit the house as they wish. I live with my husband and daughter whom both love dogs. My daughter is a registered veterinary technician. I have four little dogs - maltese, yorkipoo, havanese, and morkie.

Susan was amazing! She took wonderful care of our 11 year old German shepherd, that’s not in the best of health, with such love and kindness. We definitely recommend her to care for any of your family pups, no matter the size or age. ❤️

I was once where you are now. Scrolling through Rover trying to find the best dog sitter/match for your furry family member. It was reading those reviews that led me to Susan. And it was Susan who absolutely saved the day for us. We had a plan that didn’t work out and suddenly needed someone we trusted in a town where we knew not a soul to care for our 3 small pups. Our smallest being a 3 pound tea cup yorkie who suffers separation anxiety when she and my mom (her human) are apart. Susan took time to meet the family and the pups. She followed instructions to insure our 3 fur babies were comfortable, safe, and well cared for. All 3 dogs came back happy and exhausted. - The humans who went to the Ark returned the same… In other words. Ask Susan to watch your pups. She’s solid gold.

Dog seemed to have a good time and enjoyed the pool.
