Loving Safe Dog Care with Vet Tech
I was a licensed veterinary technician in New York, where I worked with horses and gained valuable experience handling animals, recognizing signs of illness or injury, and providing quality care. My college curriculum focused manly on small animal care and I did my externship in a small animal emergency hospital. My extensive background allows me to confidently care for pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments while giving owners peace of mind. I have over 25 years of experience caring for pets and providing compassionate, reliable animal care. I have professional experience providing paid dog-sitting services with a focus on overnight care, ensuring pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. My responsibilities include maintaining feeding schedules, administering medications when needed, providing companionship, taking dogs for walks, monitoring their health and behavior, and following all owner instructions.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I am delighted to recommend Suzy Osonitch as a dog walker and pet caregiver. I have known her for over ten years and can confidently say she is one of the most trustworthy, dependable, and compassionate people I know. She has a genuine love for animals and treats every pet with kindness, patience, and respect. Whether it's providing exercise, companionship, or attentive care, I know she will always put an animal's well-being first. She is responsible, reliable, and attentive to details, making her someone I trust completely with my own pets and home. She often cared for my elderly Maltese who required medication and delicate handling as he was nearly blind and feeble. He adored her and I always felt he was in excellent hands with her. She is well known in the community as an advocate for animals and has been responsible for many adoptions of abandoned pets. Both of her current pets were adopted as well. Beyond her love of animals, she is an excellent communicator, punctual, and committed to following instructions carefully. Pet owners can feel confident knowing their beloved companions will be safe, well cared for, and genuinely loved while in their care. I recommend her without hesitation for any dog walking or pet sitting position.
We first met Suzie two years ago when she was fostering our now-baby, Millie. She has pet-sat for us multiple times, and Millie always loves staying with her. Communication is excellent, and we receive plenty of updates and pictures. Her love of animals is clear and puts us at ease when we must leave our baby behind. We can’t recommend her enough!
We've been coming to Suzy for years now with the care of our 2 dogs when we're away. They are always so excited to see her and we know that they are in the best care when she watches them. A stand out for us is that Suzy has a background as a vet tech, so we know our doggos are in trusted care should anything happen. Couldn't recommend Suzy more!
I cannot recommend this dog sitter highly enough. Suzy cared for my two dogs for over 10 years. My husband and I traveled frequently and I had complete peace of mind knowing they were in her capable hands. Suzy treated my dogs as if they were her own, giving them so much love, attention, and exceptional care. I never had to worry while I was away because I knew they were safe, happy, and well looked after. Her reliability, professionalism, and genuine love for animals are second to none. Suzy was a licensed veterinary technician at the time which was extremely helpful for giving me peace of mind. Finding someone you trust completely with your pets is priceless, and I was incredibly fortunate to have found her. After more than a decade of consistently outstanding care, I can say without hesitation that she is one of the best. Any pet owner would be lucky to have her care for their furry family members.

Schedule
I am home for most of the day, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and personalized care. I can provide walks at least every 3–4 hours, along with regular potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection throughout the day. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is receiving the care, attention, and love they deserve. If they love care rides I love ti bring them along also.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, pet-friendly condo with my friendly dog and kitten, who are both well socialized and enjoy the company of other animals. All dogs are walked on a leash to ensure their safety, and I closely supervise all interactions. If your dog is crate trained or needs to be crated for rest, meals, or while unattended, I am happy to follow your routine. If your dog enjoys car rides, I'm also happy to bring them along on pet-friendly errands, with your permission, so they can enjoy extra companionship and enrichment. I will always follow your pet's individual needs and routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.
