Animals Are Great and I love them!

Pet care experience

I believe that animals are a gift and I treat them as such, with love and respect. My goal, as an Animal-care Specialist, is to help you relax in the comfort of knowing that your loved ones are safe and cared for while you are away. As a Holistic Health Practitioner I have extensive education and experience in health and wellness. As a massage therapist I give really good animal massages and have several repeat clients! I have a special connection with animals which involves listening to them with respect and compassion. They know me on an energetic level and sense that I am there to help them in any way I know how. I am responsible for them while their parents are away. I have cared for animals since I was a young girl. My dog and cat, PrInce and Boots, taught me the responsibilities that went along with having animals in the family. Decades later I decided to care for others' animals as well. I also offer house-sitting, caring for plants, getting the mail, and any other service that I can provide as a personal assistant. As a Holistic Health Practitioner I am comfortable administering medications and caring for any animal with special needs.

Susanna was wonderful! Our two dogs adored her and we felt very comfortable having her stay at our house. We would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for a very trustworthy and lovely person :)

Susana was great with my dogs. I was lucky she was available at the last minute to watch my furbabies!

Susanna was amazing with my (sometimes shy) pup! She kept me updated with messages and pictures, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. My dog can be a little nervous meeting new people, but Susanna was so patient—she got down on her level and let her warm up at her own pace. Before long, my girl was wagging and cuddling like they’d known each other forever. Came home to a happy, relaxed dog and a tidy house! Will absolutely book Susanna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.

Susanna took such good care our sweet Birdie. She was in such good hands while we were away.
