Dog Lover and Experienced Sitter!

Pet care experience

Hello, I'm back after a long hiatus! For returning clients, we miss you! Please reach out for return visits; none of my information has changed. For new clients, please schedule a meet and greet with me! Excited to get to know you and your pet. My name is Suzanne and I'm a pet sitting professional with years of experience and wonderful references! As a former and current longtime pet owner, I know what it means to feel as though your pet is a part of your family and strive to make sure they get the best care. Also, I work from home full time* and am able to spend as much time as possible with your pet to care for and have fun with them. I am fully insured and also provide services such as, but not limited to: medication administration, pick ups and drop offs (for additional fee), dog walks and trips to the park, among many other services. Please tell me how you would like me to provide the best care to your family member. In 2008, I adopted my sweet Lab mix named Shiloh. We had 11 great years together and went on many adventures I would like to continue sharing with other pets. I live in a lively part of Portland that is incredibly dog friendly and have enjoyed the pet "culture" since moving here. In 2020, I adopted a very mellow "middle aged" lab mix who is very friendly with other dogs of all sizes. We are happy to meet you here or in a neutral location of your choosing before booking. Chaz loves friends! *I am only occasionally away from the home for short outings, and need to be out especially on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, for short periods. I live just around the corner from a couple of large parks we can visit throughout the day! I own my home with a fully fenced in large backyard. Pets are allowed on our furniture and we have two extra rooms devoted to pet lounge areas.

Suzanne took great care of our dog Nini. Nini is a bit tricky and Suzanne kept her safe and kept us updated. Thanks :)

Information Suzanne M. would like to know about your pet

Senior and special needs dogs welcome! We are a low key home usually but can accommodate some energy as well. Some questions I may ask are allergies, crate training, any medications I need to know about. I ask for no unfixed males at this time.

A typical day

My yard is big enough for a good game of fetch or there is a large park just blocks away. Trips to local dog parks are always a good time, with permission! I have a variety of toys already in the home and welcome any preferred toys as well.

I have a very distinct routine with my own dog; he is very much a creature of habit and I have found that new dogs that come to stay with us have similar needs. He also loves that I work from home!
