Pet care experience
I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a child including my best friends Westies and my aunt’s Golden, Staffy, Chow Chow, Maltipoo and Yorkie. Currently I watch my brother’s Corgi when needed. I’m happy to watch your baby while you take a much needed vacation or have work deadlines coming up! In my gallery are some of the photos I have watched over the last 12 months (Buddy the senior Westie, Roux the Pitbull mix, Arlo the Beagle, Primo the Corgi, Bagel the Corgi, Al Pacino the Jack Russel/Chihuahua mix, Sasha the senior Golden Retriever mix and Fishy the Chihuahua mix).
Reviews
Suzanne was so wonderful with my pup Charlie. Very attentive and easy going. She kept my anxious dog calm and it was evident that she gave him lots of love and attention during his stay. She is extremely experienced and was great with keeping us updated with photos and messages. Highly recommend and will book again!
Suzanne was a perfect first experience for Bowie! The environment was great and she made Bowie feel at ease. We received several updates while we were away and were able to feel relaxed and enjoy ourselves knowing Bowie was being well taken care of. I highly recommend Suzanne’s services!
Immediately upon meeting Suzanne, our dog Milo fell in love! Suzanne has a natural charm and a way with dogs. He felt comfortable with her and her home straight away, which made me feel comfortable and confident too. Suzanne was extremely communicative before and during the booking, sending lots of photos and updates! She always responded to our messages super quickly and was honestly just so nice and sweet. I will definitely be booking with her again and would recommend her, 10/10!
Suzanne was great! She sent me constant updates and cashew was incredibly comfortable with her. Will definitely hire her to watch cashew again!

Safety, trust & environment
Plenty of space for a puppy pad/crate/bed. I have a private, fully enclosed back lot where I take the dogs I'm watching to play fetch and run around.
Home
Information Suzanne J. would like to know about your pet
My two biggest factors on where to take your dog for a walk will be their friendliness level with other dogs/people and their energy. I have more secluded routes I can take to minimize interactions and I have routes that are longer with several hills to ensure a hardy walk. Do you have a cuddly, lazy dog or a high energy, playful dog? I generally shy away from dog parks for several reasons unless requested by you.
A typical day
Unless the weather is brutal, I will take a dog to Astoria Park or the ICYP baseball fields for some fun in the grass. During the winter, I have a tennis trainer rebound ball that I will use in my apartment.

Availability
I currently work from home 2-3 days a week with a flexible daily schedule. I have a strict hour-long walk instead of a lunch break and would love to have a walking buddy. I am generally flexible and may have a day marked as unavailable if I will be away for specific hours of the day so you can always inquire if I have availability to board a dog or take a walk later in the day.
