Pet care experience

Kind & Reliable Pet Care

I grew up on a small farm in Germany surrounded by animals, including dogs and cats. I cared for my own dog for over 14 years, including her senior years, and learned how important patience, routine, and paying attention to the small changes in an older pet can be. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going for walks, feeding them, playing with them, or simply keeping them company. Every pet has its own personality, and I try to adapt to what makes them feel comfortable and relaxed. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets and your home in someone else’s care. I’ll look after them responsibly, treat them with kindness, and keep you updated while you’re away.

I am very happy to recommend Susanne as a house and pet sitter on Rover. Susanne is exceptionally reliable, trustworthy, and conscientious. She is very clean and organized, and I would feel completely comfortable leaving both my home and pets in her care. She treats animals with kindness, patience, and genuine attention, and she has valuable experience caring for animals. Susanne communicates very well in both English and German, which makes her easy to work with and dependable when providing updates or handling any questions that may arise. She is responsible, professional, and takes her commitments seriously. Having successfully run her own business for many years, Susanne brings maturity, excellent judgment, and a strong work ethic to everything she does. I would confidently recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable person to care for their home and beloved pets.

Susanne cared for Sammy for seven days on short notice, and was fantastic. Susanne was super responsive, right on time for the meet and greet, and so kind and attentive with Sammy’s extra medical needs. Sammy clearly adored her, and coming home to a spotless, tidy place was such a gift after a long day of traveling. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable sitter. Thank you so much, Susanne, for taking such good care of Sammy.

Susanne hatte viele Jahre selber eine Hündin um die sie sich liebevoll und fürsorglich gekümmert hat. Sie ist verantwortungsvoll und kommt sehr gut mit Tieren im allgemeinen zurecht. Tiere und insbesondere Hunde akzeptieren sie von Anfang an und lassen sich direkt auf sie ein. Susanne ist eine Person die ihre Aufgaben sehr ernst nimmt und sehr gewissenhaft und zuverlässig erledigt.

To Whom It May Concern, I am very happy to recommend Susanne P. as a trustworthy, responsible, and caring dog sitter. I first met Susanne many years ago through her own dog, and I was immediately impressed by the strong bond they shared. They worked together as a true team. Her dog was calm, confident, and well-behaved. At the same time, Susanne allowed her to simply be a dog while providing clear guidance and leadership. It was obvious that their relationship was built on trust, respect, and understanding. Susanne has a natural gift when it comes to dogs. Even my own Boston Terrier, Bella, who is usually quite selective about the people she trusts, felt comfortable with Susanne surprisingly quickly. Bella was always relaxed and happy in her company. One of Susanne's greatest strengths is her calm and gentle nature. Dogs seem to respond to her positive energy almost immediately. Even in challenging situations, she remains patient, composed, and confident, creating a sense of security for the dogs in her care. I was genuinely sad when Susanne moved to Canada because she was the only person I trusted completely to look after Bella. I never had to worry when Bella was with her, and I always knew she would be treated with kindness, patience, and genuine affection. I can recommend Susanne without hesitation to anyone looking for a reliable, experienced, and compassionate dog sitter. Any dog would be fortunate to be in her care.
