Highlights
Pet care experience
Stay in a home, not a kennel!
The name of my business is M.O.M. ("My Other Mom"). We missed our dog when he died and I started boarding pets. When dogs are staying at the house, I am with them all day and they are given as much attention and exercise as they require, at least two long walks and shorter ones as needed. They like to play and poke around the fenced yard, and we live on a quiet street right next to woods and trails. I ask owners alot of questions about their dogs' needs — for instance whether they can go off-leash, the diet and treats policy, medical and behavioral issues, and assessment of the dogs’ compatibility with each other. I will take up to three at a time.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I very much appreciated that Susan offered a fenced in yard and that she only took in my pup for the 2 day stay…I would like to give Susan a $20 tip….

Susan R. cancelled a booking 4 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Susan provided a wonderful experience for my dog, including lots of exercise.

Susan was very kind and accommodating with my elderly arthritic dog. She kept the walks short, kept him happy playing ball and chasing her backyard chipmunks, plus we lucked out and had another elderly small dog staying with her at the same time, so now my dog has a new friend. Highly recommend.

Susan took great care of Bruce! She was attentive and sincerely concerned with his happiness and well-being. Would absolutely recommend and use again.

Susan was great! Flexible and easy to communicate with. Max was happy! We will definitely ask Susan to host Max again:)

Schedule
I am currently retired and have a flexible schedule. Will remain with pet at all times including in the yard, unless I have to drive somewhere and have to leave pet in a heated car. Will not engage in activities that involve leaving dog home for a long time.
