Highlights
Pet care experience
Care for your precious fur babies!
Hello there! I’ve been a caretaker of animals big and small—furry, feathered, scaly, and everything in between—for as long as I can remember. Whether it's a playful pup or a senior kitty, I approach every pet with compassion, patience, and respect for their unique personality. I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. My late Samoyed, Mackenzie, was my pride and joy—I raised her from puppyhood and later cared for her through diabetes, administering insulin and giving her the support she needed to thrive. These days, the current love of my life is Tucker, a Poodle/Bichon mix with a heart of gold. I’ve trained him to be a model canine citizen—he’s friendly with other dogs, gentle with kids, and so well-behaved that neighbors stop just to say hello! I know every pet is different, and I’m happy to tailor my care to what your animal loves most—whether that’s belly rubs and cuddles, long adventurous walks, a vigorous game of fetch, or simply hanging out together in the backyard. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Let’s chat about how I can help care for your beloved companion!

Ratings and reviews
Suzy is a gem - a true dog whisperer who goes above and beyond with your furry loved ones. She is mature, professional, reliable, communicative, and wonderfully personable. I recommend Suzy highly and look forward to having her care for our pup again!
So glad we found her. She was wonderful with our pets. They absolutely loved her! She was an absolute pleasure. Very upbeat and super sweet. My animals took to her right away. I felt so relieved while on vacation to know my pets were in good hands
Suzy was wonderful with my little dog! Great communication and so sweet. Would absolutely rebook in the future!
Suzanne was super friendly! She went above and beyond. Great communication and plenty of photos and updates.
I’ve known Suzy for over 26 years, and her love for animals is truly special. She’s raised two awesome dogs and is always the go-to person when friends or family need a pet sitter. She treats every animal like her own—with tons of love, patience, and care. She even made me a cat person! I was never into cats before, but the ones she helped raise changed my mind. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your pets, Suzy’s the one. You’ll be able to relax knowing they’re in amazing hands.

Schedule
I recently moved to the area and am not currently working full-time, so I am available to provide 24 hour care for your pets with occasional brief periods out of the house.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home is a puppy paradise - there are dog beds scattered throughout the house along with several baskets filled to the brim with stuffed toys and balls, so your precious pup can lounge or play as much as they want. I allow dogs on the couch and they are always welcome in bed, but if your dog prefers a crate to feel safe, you can either bring your own or I can provide a large crate that they can use during their time at my home. My backyard is not fully fenced so I would not allow them outside off-leash, but there are two amazing parks nearby that are perfect for walks and a good sniff or two. If you are comfortable with it, I would also be happy to bring your dog to the Wolf Hill Off-Leash Dog Park for socialization.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day with me: Early morning snuggles and rubs as they awake from their slumber. A long walk in the morning so your pup can do his or her business, check the daily doggie newspaper to find out what's happening in the neighborhood (a.k.a. sniffing every plant and bush!) Breakfast time! Indoor/Outdoor playtime (with some light and fun training if you are interested!) usually followed by a mid-morning snooze. Early afternoon walk and indoor/outdoor playtime depending on their preference. Possible mid-afternoon snooze followed b a vigorous walk/outing to the park/dog park/beach. Dinner time! After dinner walk and indoor/outdoor playtime. Mid-evening snuggles and cuddles on the couch. Last walk of the evening. Bed-time!
