Pet care experience

Pet Purrfect

I live in the Alliance Town Center area of Fort Worth, Texas 76244. We are in the process of training our daughter’s first Service Dog, Maggie. I grew up in Houston, where I went to school to become a certified veterinary technician. Over the years I have worked in both traditional, and holistic veterinary practices. I moved to Nacogdoches, Texas where I completed my Master’s Degree in Science, with an emphasis in Agriculture. During my college days, I continued working as a veterinary technician, and also took on a position at the Stephen F. Austin Swine Farm. I relocated to Fort Worth in 2006 and I took on a new career as a Veterinary Pharmaceutical Sales Representative. In this stage of my life I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is flexible.

I have never left my dogs before so I was very nervous, Susan did an excellent job at keeping me updated and sending me pictures of them while I was gone. One of them even had an accident and she threw the throw blanket in the wash. She went above and beyond for my pups I wouldn’t have anyone else let my pups and do check ins with them!

We’re so grateful we found Susan and her family! Since we had just moved, our dogs were still adjusting and annxious about trying a new sitter, but they immediately felt comfortable and loved them. Susan was very communicative and quick to respond, which gave us so much peace of mind. Nori even had an accident during the overnight stay, and they handled it with so much patience and care. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and highly recommend them! ❤️🐾

Susan is a wonderful person full of light. She walked right into our home our choice of choosing her instantly felt right! She was extremely kind and adabtable. So gentle and kind with our fur babies, whom both adored her. She asked all the right questions and took the time to understand specific instructions. She was extremely flexible and understanding with our families busy chaotic schedules. We absolutely have found our person for our pets (large dog and cat)!

When you book with Susan, the whole family spoils your baby! Pugsley loves them all. Susan kept me reasonably updated with pictures and comments. They even read him a bedtime story! He's on a diet and they did a great job of loving him without excessive treats. He will stay again. Almost forgot. I was given hand-drawn pictures to post by his crate and a lovely keepsake. I'm quite happy!

We had a wonderful experience! They truly made our dogs part of their family, and it was obvious they were loved and well cared for while we were away. We especially appreciated the frequent updates, photos, and messages—they gave us real peace of mind and let us enjoy our trip without worrying. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs, which says everything. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, reliable pet sitters.

Let me know if your pet has any medical needs or dietary restrictions. As a former veterinary technician I am comfortable administering medications. Also, please be upfront about any behavior issues that we may need to discuss.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
