Pet care experience

As a lifetime owner and 30-plus year sitter of dogs and cats, there is no pet situation that I haven't experienced. I understand that your pet is a member of your family and that their safety and happiness while you're unable to care for them are paramount. In addition to just genuinely loving animals, my career as a healthcare provider uniquely prepares me to make sure your pet is healthy, secure, and engaged at all times. My own two senior dogs are everything to me, so I'm extremely mindful of any anxiety you or your pet may have when entering into a relationship with a sitter. Should it be necessary, I am proficient at all forms of medication administration. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged friend! (Please note that I am unable to accept bookings from clients with incomplete profiles.)

A+++++. Great service, very trustworthy. Does what she says she will do so that I don't have to think about it. My dog and cat are very happy and so am I. I got Susan's name from a friend and since then I've never used anyone else.

Susan is an exceptional pet sitter and I could not recommend her more. We always go to her to look over our two dogs and two cats while we are away! She answers us in a timely manner and sends pictures daily. It is clear that all of our animals are loved while they are in her care. Definitely book with Susan!

I'd been looking for years for a sitter for my dog that I could trust. I'm happy to say that after going through many sitters and having all kinds of bad experiences, I've finally found Susan. I travel with my family fairly often. Traveling can be stressful but Susan at least removes the pet sitting part! My dog Mack enjoys having Susan's company, and I like the updates and pictures she sends. I trust her for weekend trips and longer trips and I'm hoping that she can do regular walks for Mack when I go back to work. Thanks for everything Susan!

I'm a complete animal nut who has 3 dogs and 2 cats (and other assorted critters). Finding a pet sitter like Susan has been a godsend. My husband works day shift and I work night shift which can make it very difficult for our furbabies to get the attention they need. Susan fills in all the gaps and we have her on a regular schedule to walk the dogs and play with the cats. She shows up when she says she's going to and I never have to worry if my dogs and cats are getting the companionship they need, with the added bonus being that they actually get excited when they hear her car! We're extremely pleased with the services Susan has provided and have only good things to say!
