Pet care experience

Lifetime dog owner who believes dogs talk with tails, eyes, and barks. Already have had quite an array of characters with great success. Excellent with easing anxiety. Highly motivated to care for your dog, kinda like an aunt or (gasp) grrrr-ma! Years brushing fur, cleaning ears (yuck!) and taking care of teeth. Have nursed wounds, eyes, and minor surgeries until good as new. Already had special guests, including a deaf puppy, an older guy with daily meds, a very itchy fella with medications, and a puppy prone eat first, ask questions later. Most guests needed at least one good brushing and a few got baths after unexpected muddy romps. All visits were great successes with happy pets and grateful owners! All dogs must have up-to-date medical records and humans must follow current resporatory prevention recommendations when dropping off or picking up.

Susy was great with our dog, who is nervous around strangers. She was easy to communicate with and shared detailed updates and pictures of our pup. Would happily book her again!

Susy treated Leonard like royalty! She sent daily pictures & took suck great care of our pup that he didn’t want to leave.

Susy was fantastic, provided plenty of updates and pictures of my dog during her stay. I keep a Whistle Go on my dog's collar to track her exercise and she received well over the necessary exercise for a young pup. Very happy with our experience and will definitely think of Susy again if we need boarding!

I don’t think my dogs wanted to come home after staying with Susy. She went above and beyond to ensure they were well cared for and happy. I trust her implicitly and will use her again the next time I leave town.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a radio fenced yard. All dogs are 100% accompanied outside, leashed. Most dogs bond strongly enough to mosey around the yard and sun themselves on the deck unleashed. Another family member and I play fetch to assure fetchers and zoomies stay in the yard. I NEVER take chances!

Information Susy L. would like to know about your pet

How are they with stairs? How well do they like other dogs and children-we would encounter both on a neighborhood walk. Chewing habits? Behavior when parting with owner and ways to comfort? Your house rules - I will follow the same! Comfort with car rides? Medical care.

A typical day

Walk, play any game dog wants, or sit on the couch all day! I knit, which lap dogs love. We are near a beach, which active dogs love! Built in lap-sitting options with an adult child living at home. I maintain training consistent with yours and can informally offer advice for training or working with special needs dogs.
