Susan's Burlington Family Pet Care.

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Susan. However my husband Glenn helps out, and he seems to be the ultimate dog charmer! My daughter Erin starting the business officially in 2017, and we shared the dog sitting and services together as mother/daughter team. Erin has now moved to Australia and visits from time to time when she is in town! We've loved animals our whole life and adore taking care of them and thought this service would be a great fit. It's important to trust others before leaving them with your own pet therefore we understand and are willing to accommodate you and your pets needs- no questions asked. We are available if you prefer to meet up before the service you're looking for or if you want to take a look at our house before deciding to book, that can also be arranged. A little about us: Both Susan and Glenn are retired. Susan in 2018 and Glenn in 2020. They have been living in Burlington for the past 27 years. Both their children are living on their own. Her husband Glenn is a big animal lover and loves to help out. Dogs seem to like to cuddle with Glenn while watching TV. Our home: In our house we have our dog Sadie, a 10 yr old border collie/lab mix who is friendly and loves to meet others. We live in a family neighbourhood near Sherwood Forest in Burlington with lots of grass space in the backyard for playing and a short walks to Sherwood forest. We take our dog Sadie out for 2 walks a day for about 40 minutes each, but will adjust according to your dogs' needs. For dog sitting in our home Susan is available during the day and evenings, as retired. Your pet will never be left unattended and we will be free to give them all the attention they need. We only take one dog at a time so personalized cuddles. We are very flexible in regards to what you're looking for so feel free to reach out to us and we can set up a preferred schedule or routine that works best for you. Cat drop ins: I have done many cat drop ins, feeding, cuddling, litter change, cleanup, oral medication and inhalers. Dog walking: Walks as well can be customized to your needs in terms of active, leisure, areas, paths or parks you'd like us to use. If you have any questions about our experience we would be happy to give you references of previous owners pets we've looked after if you get in touch with us. Additionally if you have any other concerns or questions please do not hesitate to contact me, and I look forward to getting to meet your pet!

Thank you Susan and Glenn for the amazing care you took of Bosco while we were away on vacation! We missed him terribly but were never worried about him knowing he was with you. I think he is missing you both, as well as Sadie. Thanks! Melissa and Ralph

Susan and Glenn were amazing! They made Bosco feel completely at home and cared for him like he was their own while we were away. We appreciate all the walks, playtime and cuddles they gave. The many updates and pictures put our minds at rest, knowing Bosco was happy and safe. We will definitively leave Bosco with Susan and Glenn again!

Our Emmie was so comfortable at Susan and Glen’s. They took excellent care of her and sent us daily pics and updates. We felt like they really cared for her.
