Loving Care, One Dog at a Time!

Whether your dog is a calm senior who needs a gentle touch or an active energetic youngster, I offer a nurturing, calm home and will give your pet lots of attention and love. I am retired, so I am able to be home most of the day to spend time with your dog. I have primarily sat for friends and family in the past and understand how important it is to find someone you can completely trust with your family member. I am excited to open my home to offer loving care and attention for your pet. My husband is also usually home and is good at painting pet portraits as an extra service! I offer daytime daycare, overnight stays in my home, energetic walks, or drop-in visits to keep your pet comfortable in their own space. I enjoy two beautiful Grandcats that belong to my daughter and would love to visit your cats, birds in your home up to twice a day.

Suzanne makes a great pet sitter. She cared for my dog, Sophie, when we would be out of town. She was patient and conscientious about feeding, playing with, and walking my dog. Sophie was always happy to see her.

Suzanne is wonderful friend who has taken care of our dogs in the past. She has a great home for dogs with a fenced in backyard and plenty of space inside. She will send photos during boarding and kept you updated. I would 100% recommend her and we would definitely use her again.

Safety, trust & environment

I adapt easily to whatever your dog needs to thrive. They will be treated as a member of the family. I prefer one dog at a time in my home for daycare or spending the night. I have a fenced back yard for playing, and a comfortable home for your dog to be in. I will walk the dog at least twice a day to Valyermo Park which is near my home. More energetic dogs can join me walking the Oso Creek Trail, which I walk regularly. I can walk your dog in your neighborhood , or drop-in visits to keep your pet (dog, cat, birds)comfortable in their own space.

A typical day

Just like with children, I appeal to the dog or cat's interest and temperament. My last dog was very energetic and played with the big dogs in the park every day. When she was older she regularly visited a local adult daycare center for people with dementia, bringing comfort and joy to everyone she met.
