Information Suzy K. would like to know about your pet

I prefer small dogs, will discuss with you everything you want me to know and tell you how I would care for your dog. It is nice if they are clean. I've always had small dogs, your dog/s can sleep with me...bigger dogs are ok, too. Let's talk about specifics. Dogs are my best friends!

A typical day

WALKS are of course the most exciting part of our day. I will adhere to your schedule, med schedules if needed and whatever you require. I give lots of love and make sure they are as comfy as possible, when they don't have you!

Pet care experience

I live in Hercules (East Bay) and only do IN HOME CARE for dogs and sometimes cats. I've found there is less stress if they stay in their own familiar surroundings with your smells; especially if they are blind or deaf or have elderly med needs.. I also give medications and understand senior dog needs. My small Chihuahua SOPHIE comes with me and gets along with everyone. I am semi-retired and will attend to all your instructions, sleep with your baby if that is what is required. I specialize in small dogs but will consider anything, especially if you are in a bind and need someone ASAP. Call me and let's discuss your needs! Thank you.

Suzy was such a blessing. She came on short notice and took excellent care of our dogs. One of them experienced a health issue while we were gone and Suzy helped us navigate the issue keeping us updated and reassured and helped to resolve the issue. I didn’t worry because Suzy was taking such good care. She gave lots of updates and sent little videos and pictures. We are very grateful.

I have used Suzy’s sitting services twice and each time I’ve been very pleased.

We couldn’t be more thankful for Suzy who came in on an extremely short notice situation when our normal sitter wasn’t able to make it. She was amazing with our puppy and just an amazing person and a truly nice and caring addition to our puppies small little world. We will most certainly be having her back into our home to take care of our little guy diesel. We are so looking forward to booking with Suzy again and wish we could give her six stars. Also her communication was excellent within five minutes of submitting a request she called and we talked on the phone and she made me feel comfortable and safe with her in our home and with our fur baby.

Suzy was a star. My dog was completely relaxed when I returned home. Suzy folded laundry, left the kitchen spotless, made me a yummy soup. she kept me informed throughout my trip. Never for a minute was I uneasy and I would definitely ask her again to take care of my little one. Sarah H.
