Pet care experience

Experienced Pet & House Sitter 🐾🏡

I am a mature single professional living in downtown Bryn Mawr. My goal is to make sure that your pet is as comfortable as possible in their own surroundings. I will maintain any schedules (feeding, walks or medication) that you have and will make sure your dog or cat gets extra love during your time apart. I will also bring in your mail and packages, water your plants or outside garden and make sure trash and recycling is taken care of while you are away. I am happy to provide recent dog and house sitting references for you. On occasion, I am able to board dogs in my home. Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, separation anxiety or barking issues. I do not have a fenced in yard; however, your furry friend will get two long walks a day and many potty breaks. BrynMawr College is beautiful for our long walks. Here's a bit more about me. I am a college grad (Go Penn State) and have a part time position working in sales. My work schedule is flexible with advance notice. Well behaved dogs have even come to work with me for a few hours. I had the pleasure of growing up with a mischievous yellow lab. Obedience classes taught us both a lot! After that, I volunteered for years doing short term fostering for local rescues. I am very patient and kind to all animals and have had experience with very shy dogs,special needs and senior dogs and the over 100 pound canines which I love. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have. I offer a complimentary meet and greet beforehand and look forward to meeting you and your four-footed friends!

Amazing! Our first time using rover and we are so glad we found Susan. She came for a meet and greet, brought treats, and our dog loves her! She took him for a long walk, and sent us updates the whole time with lots of pics! Will absolutely be using her again!
