Loving,responsible pet sitting

Pet care experience

I love animals. I have a lot of experience taking care of cats and dogs. I have always had cats and taken care of some with special needs. I’ve taken care of family’s cats and dogs, employers, friends and neighbors. I want them to have the best possible experience with me while their favorite person is away. I am sensitive to animals moods, and personalities. I let them have space and get used to me before I try to pet them. I’m warm and respectful. I follow the owners instructions to ensure the best care and safety of their pet. I will go outside with dogs, take them on walks, throw a ball, pet, feed and talk to them. I’ve bathed dogs, taken them to veterinary clinic when ill, transported them to groomers, walked and taken them to a lake to swim. I have a lot of varied experience with dogs and cats.

I always say Susan is the best, but this sit she showed it even more! She let me know that my kitty was starting to show signs of an eye infection and she even went back to my house to check on him, outside of the already scheduled visits. She goes above and beyond to make sure that my kitties are cared for and okay. I appreciate it so much!

Susan took wonderful care of Buttercup, as well as our home. Buttercup was clearly happy and well cared for, and Susan was a great communicator throughout our travels. We have complete confidence in her loving caregiving and would recommend her without hesitation. Thank you Susan for treating our dog like your own!
