Your pets will love being with me.

Pet care experience

I've enjoyed the companionship of pets (dogs, cats, horses, birds, rabbits and a pot bellied pig) throughout my life. I have raised and trained many animals. I now have a puppy named Izzy. I have never been without a dog in my life. Young or old, they will receive the same care and love that I give my own. I moved to this area in 2013 and began watching friends' pets.After I retired I began sitting for Rover. There is a lot of competition out there, but if you give me a chance, you will not be sorry. Your pet will have an absolutely 'pawsitive' good time hanging out with me. I am fully vaccinated.

Susan was amazing. Our dog was immediately comfortable with her. We will definitely use Susan again when we are in Palm Springs.

Susan is a compassionate and responsible house/dog sitter. One of our dogs was sick our first time entrusting her with their care. She did an excellent job and went above and beyond taking care of him and the other two plus our parrot. We won’t hesitate to have Susan care for our pets in the future.

This is the second time I have used Susan. She is amazing. She took care of my two puppies, sent pictures and updates the whole time I was gone, and brought them balls to play with. She is very respectful in the house and cleans up after herself. I highly recommend Susan and I will definitely use her again.

Susan is a lifesaver & we’re so grateful to have found her! When our other dogsitter had an emergency cancellation, Susan jumped in with less than a week’s notice for a meet & greet & stayed overnight with our pup for a long weekend. Communication was excellent- she sent frequent photos & updates & we could tell our pup was super happy with her company. Will definitely be rebooking!
