Highlights
Pet care experience
Home all day, fenced yard
I am a responsible, quiet, organized, non-smoking home owner with no children at home who will respect your house and spoil your pets just like I do my own. I have been an active volunteer and then executive director of an animal shelter; fostering scores of momma dogs/cats and their litters until they were healthy enough for adoption. I have cared for my daughter's menagerie of six pets and successfully soothed my son's Husky with separation anxiety while he was traveling. I have also been on the other side of pet house sitting - finding pet sitters to take care of our rescue Golden Retrievers - so I know that clear expectations for both the sitter and home owner are essential.

Ratings and reviews
Susan is a true animal person! She gave our very shy cat all the care and love we could hope for, ensuring Willow’s physical wellbeing and also, with great thoughtfulness and sensitivity, meeting our kitty’s needs for interaction and affection. We give her 10 out of 5 stars (Willow would even give her 10 out of 5 raw fish) 🐾❤️😻
Susan is an awesome pet sitter! She was very professional and able to deal with our sometimes temperamental kitty. We are thankful to have such a professional and experienced pet sitter in our area.
Susan took such good care of my girl Kota while I was away. She sent updates and lots of pics. Highly recommend her! Thanks so much!!
A loving, caring person.
Susan was so kind and great with my pup! Would rebook with her in a heartbeat
Reliable & kept us in the loop as always!

Schedule
I am retired so I am at home except for daily two hour hikes and errands around Los Alamos. I am happy to tailor my schedule around the needs of your pup.

Safety, trust & environment
Keeping your pet safe and comfortable is my top priority. As a life-long pet owner I am very aware of how careful you must be even in seemly mundane situations.

A typical day
I am an avid hiker, usually logging five miles a day with my four year old mini Australian Shepherd, Annie. Based on your pet's personality we can be active, social, quiet or anything in between.
