Safety, trust & environment

While caring for other people’s pets, made sure to go to check on the pets many times a day. During that time, I stay and play, love on them, give treats or feed (if it’s time), play some more, and make sure they are properly tired until the next time I come back. I worry about them, honestly, as though they are my own. So I want to make sure they are happy and safe.

Pets

Your babies, my new best friends!

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with dogs. I’ve had at least three to 7 dogs at a time in my home. As well as cats, ducks and bunnies! I have a unique ability to bond quickly with dogs, and animals. I love them. I believe God put them on earth to help to help us make it through the trials and triumphs of life. I believe all dogs are unique and have the own personality, and should be treated as such. And I will treat your dog as though they are my new friend, and hopefully will become my longtime friend. I have had senior dogs, so I am well aware of the extra care that needs to be given to these special dogs. They deserve to be treated with care and respect. I have also trained my dogs in basic commands. I will always abide by your wishes while caring for your baby. And will willing to listen to any concerns that may arise.

Our dogs and cats (2 each) seemed to get along well with Susan while we were out of town on a 6-day trip. She kept us well informed with lots of photos and was able to manage our crazy feeding instructions for the animals. It was nice to come home to happy pets and a clean house.

We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely book with her again! She was incredibly flexible with our needs, which made the entire process so much easier. It’s clear she truly loves and cares for the pets she watches, and that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She sent plenty of pictures and updates, which we really appreciated—it was great to see how happy and comfortable our dog was. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we always felt informed. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Susan was THE best for our dog. She loved her like we would from the moment she first came over. She took the time to really care for her and when she says she’ll play with the dogs until they’re tired she means it! Our first experience with Rover sitter and very happy.

Susan was absolutely incredible with our dogs! She took the time to come for a visit before house sitting and then took so much care of our little animals and home while she was there. We will definitely be reaching back out to her when we need someone to watch our dogs again!
