Pet care experience

Welcome Home! 🐕‍🦺

As a proud U.S. Navy Veteran, I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine love for animals to every pet I care for. I have experience caring for and training dogs in animal shelters and on base, along with providing monthly grooming for family and friends for over 10 years. I can assist with basic grooming, reinforce obedience commands, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with their safety, comfort, and happiness as my top priorities. I look forward to caring for your fur baby! 🐾🤍

Suzan is the best! She is beyond amazing and really exceeded our expectations. She is a true animal lover and it shows. Our dogs are shy afraid seniors yet with Suzan to our surprise they were so comfortable and happy. I texted Suzan to let her know we were arriving a bit late and she was very kind and accommodating saying no worries drive safe. During our trip Suzan sent us many updates, with beautiful pictures and videos. She took our girls outside for walks, cuddled with them, played with them and treated them like part of the family. They sat with Suzan on her sofa and she comforted them to sleep on her own bed. Suzan's dogs were very sweet and well behaved playmates. On the way back from our trip I asked Suzan if it was possible to change the pick up time and again she was very kind and said not to worry and to have a safe trip. When we arrived a lil early Suzan noticed and came outside with our girls and their bags ready. Our girls looked great and so happy. When we got home we noticed Suzan gave us a lil bag with a lovely card and treats. We are very lucky and thankful to have found Suzan. She is a Blessing.

Susan was absolutely AMAZING with my baby!! I could tell right away that he was in such good hands, and she went above and beyond in ways I honestly wasn’t even expecting. She had the cutest little sign made for him, groomed him, and even sent him home with the sweetest little gift bag and a handwritten note card!! 🥹💗 It was all of the little thoughtful touches that really meant so much to me. She treated him like he was her own and kept me updated, which made being away from him so much easier. You can genuinely tell how much she loves animals and how much care she puts into what she does. I’m SO happy I found Susan and would absolutely trust her with my baby again!! She is seriously the sweetest and I couldn’t recommend her enough. Thank you so much girly!!🙏💛💛

Susan is so sweet with my two cats. I have a calico and a brown tabby who are very shy, and Susan really made them feel comfortable enough to come out of hiding and play! I travel a lot of work, and I trust Susan with dropping into my home and taking care of my babies. I promise you won’t regret having her take care of your babies too!

Schedule

I love taking walks with my dogs and also help care for my mother’s dogs. I believe dogs thrive with consistency, positive reinforcement, and a good routine. 🐾 I help reinforce good behaviors and keep a consistent schedule for walks, meals, and playtime, so your pup knows what to expect and feels happy, comfortable, and secure.
