Dogsitting With Dot!

Pet care experience

I love animals and usually prefer their company to any other. Pet sitting is my full-time job, and during my stay your pet’s care will be my top priority, and I will spend most of my time in your home with them. I am flexible and will do everything I can to make sure their routine stays the same and that they’re comfortable, happy, and loved, while also doing all I can to ensure you feel comfortable leaving them and your home in my care. I am a freelance photographer, so your daily updates will include many photos. I have experience with special needs animals and have no trouble providing extra support and giving medications. From one night to a month or more - I am interested in any length of stay. I am always excited to meet new clients and always grateful for my continued relationships with repeat clients. I also offer pet portrait prints! If you would like professional candid photography prints, please let me know and we can discuss options. I am an insured and bonded pet sitter. #dogsittingwithdot

Incredible communication and care for our sweet animal! We are so lucky to have Dot here for a holiday trip back home. Our 11 month old pup is high energy and needs lots of affection, Hazelnut and Dot were a perfect match. We came home to a happy and content puppy, a well cared for home and some of the cutest photos of their adventures. Our family will be reaching out again to book Dot!

Dorothy did an amazing job! We were gone for two weeks and were very nervous leaving our pets that long. Dorothy communicated regularly and sent lots of wonderful pictures. One cat was glued to Dorothy the whole time and our "scardy cat" even came out after a few days and that never happens. Our dog did amazingly well, was relaxed and well cared for including getting thru 4th of July. We could tell by pictures that animals were happy and comfortable. The house was in great shape when we returned. We can't recommend Dorothy enough for the care of your pets and home.

Dorothy was awesome. Very communicative, our dogs loved Dorothy and our home was in great condition when we returned. We loved all of the updates & photos we received but especially loved how comfortable we felt with having Dorothy in our house & taking care of our dogs!

Information Dorothy S. would like to know about your pet

I like to know any quirks or traits that will impact our time together so that I know their boundaries and can avoid making them scared or nervous.

A typical day

From cuddling, to tug of war, to throwing the ball, I love playing with dogs. I’ll take them for walks or hikes wherever they’re comfortable. And what if your dog just wants to snuggle up on the couch? Good news! That’s my favorite! I always have a stack of books with me and will usually spend a few hours reading each day; and what’s better than animal cuddles while reading? I am very flexible and my main concern is keeping your dog stress-free and happy while you are away.
