Dog care and exercise with love

Pet care experience

I’ve worked with animals, mostly dogs and horses my whole life. My career as a Ship’s Captain makes it impossible for me to have my own pets, so I care for others’s pets, like they are my own. I am very responsible and resourceful. I will always keep you informed on how your dog is, I’ll send you photos, a LOT! I completely respect owners wishes and direction regarding dog care, diet and exercise. I’m a fit person, and enjoy exercise myself. I enjoy the company of a dog when exercising. Makes us both happy. When I care for a dog in your home, I understand the boundaries. My home is in a beautiful area, with plenty of room. I do have a fenced space. I spend a lot of time with who I’m boarding, since I am on leave when I do pet care. I am happy to take care of multiple pets from the same home. However, I do try to take care of only one family at a time.

We are so thankful to have had Susan watch our girl for us! Roxy came back happy and we got so many cute pictures and videos. We recommend and would ask her to pupsit for us again if the need arises. 100/10

Susan took such great care of my dog. She took her for a nice walk and spent time in a hammock with her. I really appreciated the pictures during the day. Thanks Susan!

Information Susan O. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any special diet, or training. Let me know if you don’t let your pet on furniture, or beds, as I wouldn’t want to start a bad habit in them.

A typical day

Normally, I start our day taking care of our morning business, followed by a walk around my property. We all have breakfast, and than I see what the weather is like, we may go to Stockade Lake, or another park, or we may explore my area, there’s plenty to do, and there’s nothing to do,… totally depends on what my client wants

When I’m caring for your pet, I am on leave, and have very few commitments. I spend a lot of time outdoors, and adjust my routine to suit my clients needs. Being on leave makes it easy.
