Highlights
Pet care experience
Large fenced-in yard!
My husband and I both work home-based on a flexible schedule. We go way above and beyond what your dog normally would get in most in-home boardings …lots of outdoor playtime in our spacious lot, walks if requested, hangouts and snuggles when indoors, and a complete at home feeling, And, regarding in-home checkins and dog walking, I am the one who typically does it (Paul is my backup). We both are involved with the boarding in our home, mainly because my husband loves engaging with dogs as much as I do! ;) I've cared for dogs for most of my life and, as an adult, have always owned a dog (or two!). I've owned a Bichon, Lab, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, St. Bernard and an English Cocker Spaniel (as well as a cat and birds). I can supply references upon request. I love dogs and other house pets and will shower lots of affection on yours as well. I definitely don't think you'll regret trying me out...your pet will be well taken care of! Please keep me in mind if you desire someone to walk your dog(s), play with them, check in on them here and there, or for boarding in our home (1/2 acre fenced lot just three miles from Wrightsville Beach if you're here for vacation!)

Ratings and reviews
So sweet and understanding. I knew my doggy would be well taken care of!

Our dog went to Susie’s for doggy daycare and it was a great experience! She took a last minute request from me which I really appreciated, and Honey seemed to have a good time playing with their dog George! She sent plenty of photos and kept me updated! I would definitely book with Susie again. :)

My dogs came back so happy and relaxed after their first weekend with Susie and I am over the moon about it! I have two pups and one is a very anxious rescue who did great under Susie’s care. Beautiful home and people with a great backyard space for the dogs to play and be safe!! 🩷🩷


Susie is an amazing person and pet sitter. She took the time to chat with me and learn about my pup before I left from the drop off. Throughout the stay, I received updates and photos regularly. She’s very communicative, personable, and genuinely enjoys taking care of others’ fur babies. 10/10 would recommend!

Susie is amazing! She took incredible care of my dog Nash while I was in town doing a scuba course. She was accommodating and flexible of my ever changing schedule and I could tell she really cared for my dog and making him comfortable. Will definitely rebook doggy daycare with her when I'm back in the area!
Susie & Paul were a special blessing to us and our pet! Their love for animals is clearly evident, and they were so accommodating to us and our schedule. They even provided great tips and directions for our sight-seeing time in the area. We will definitely book with them again if we are ever in the Wilmington area again.

Schedule
We work home-based so we will have plenty of time to care for and play with your fur baby during boarding. :) I also am flexible during the day to do check-ins or walks/playtime.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a 1/2 acre yard surrounded by an eight-foot-tall fence. We also have a friendly English Cocker Spaniel named George! He loves to play with other dogs but, if your pup prefers less playful contact, we can keep George more separate. ;)
Pets
A typical day
When dogs are within our home, we have lots of things we like to do to keep them happy! We throw balls and frisbees, set up a baby pool for water play, and even do brain stimulating activities involving searching for toys.
