Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, Loving Pet Care
Caring for animals has always been part of my life. I grew up surrounded by pets of all kinds, including dogs, cats, birds with feathers, fish with fins, and even those with scales. That early exposure gave me a deep comfort and appreciation for animals of every personality and species.

Ratings and reviews
Susie took such wonderful care of Zephyr over the weekend (Friday through Sunday), and I couldn't be happier with our experience. She was incredibly responsive, kind, understanding, and friendly from the very beginning. Throughout the weekend, she kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me much peace of mind. It was clear that Zephyr was getting lots of walks, attention, and excellent care, and he seemed to have had a really great weekend with her. Thank you so much, Susie, for taking such great care of Zephyr! I wouldn't hesitate to book with you again, and I will absolutely be recommending you to my fellow dog friends.
Susie was a fantastic sitter for my dog Mia she walked her off in and sent pictures I would not hesitate to recommend her!
Thanks for taking such good care of Catalina! She was so happy!
Susie is the best! I could tell she really cared for my dog and made sure she was comfortable and entertained every day that I was gone. She sent daily recaps of the day along with a picture of what they did. Susie goes above and beyond the expectations I had. She didn’t just watch my dog while I was gone, she loved my dog like it was hers. I will 100% be going to Susie any time I need to board my dog again.
Susie did a great job with Tia! I will ask her to take care of her again. I really liked her. 🐶🥰
Susie was great with our large breed puppy. She is reliable, a good communicator, followed our directions, and gave feedback and photos of her visit. We trust her and booked her again for overnight care in our home.

Schedule
I am recently retired, which gives me the flexibility to be fully present and available for pet care when needed. My schedule allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, overnights, and extended stays without the constraints of a traditional workday. This flexibility means your pets receive consistent attention, timely care, and a calm, unhurried presence while you are away.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my home, they become part of an active, dog-friendly neighborhood with plenty to explore. I live just 1.5 blocks from the beach and close to great walking spots like Arana Gulch, the park at the end of Schwan Lake, and a nearby dog park only minutes away. Dogs in my care enjoy fresh air, fun walks, and plenty of playtime balanced with calm downtime at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routines so they feel safe and comfortable in familiar surroundings.
A typical day
I love keeping pets happy, active, and engaged. I take dogs to unique places for walks and fresh-air adventures, and I make sure both dogs and cats enjoy plenty of playtime with their favorite activities. Whether it’s a game of fetch, interactive play, or simply enrichment at home, I tailor activities to each pet’s personality. And of course, I always make time for all the snuggles and affection they want.
