About: I have owned fur babies a majority of my life and love caring for them. For the 3 years, I volunteered as an in home foster for a local dog rescue and have experience with anything from the shy/timid personalities to the energetic playful personalities that these babies have. I have my own dogs who welcome other 4 legged visitors and enjoy running around the house and yard playing....but they also enjoy cuddling and nap time. I have a fenced area in my front yard where they can enjoy fresh air and lay in the sunshine. Your pets will be loved on and pampered while here. I have experience in giving medications as I have had to medicated some of the fosters that’s i have had. I do have crates available for those who need it. I work from home so they would not be left alone for long periods and would be taken outside frequently. I currently work from home so the fur babies would not be left for long periods. My daughter lives with me and helps care for the dogs. I have 2 small fenced areas in my yard but I do not leave any dog outside alone. I also have fences and crates available for inside for nights and when I have to run errands.

“Couldn’t recommend Susanna enough! I loved getting updates and pictures of my boy and I know he had a great time on his walks. Susanna is kind, trustworthy and truly cares about the animals!”


About: I am dedicated to learning your pets needs. I have two dogs of my own one being a labrador mix who is two years old and a Pomeranian that’s 3 years old. I enjoy giving yummy treats and belly rubs! I am gentle and can move slower for pets who are senior. I make sure that during my walks with your stress that they are receiving a full exercise to promote a healthy lifestyle. I make sure to feed on time while also following any dietary needs. Though I’m not a certified trainer, I can still help sitting, staying, crate training, and more. i’m PATIENT. Accidents happen. I can also clean up your pets mess if they had to really go! Overall, one of my top skills is showing up on time, following instructions and making your pet my bestfriend. P.S. Communication is crucial to me. I like to send updates and pictures of your pet when they’re with me so you know that they’re safe and having fun. I recently graduated from college which gives me more than plenty of time to play and care for your pet! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to manage my free hours accordingly and organized. Which helps me make sure that your pets that are on my schedule NEVER EVER forgotten! How I care for my pets in my home or in my clients home is I make sure to mainly prioritize building trust. It is crucial that the first time I’m meeting a pet that they have a clear view of me and what I have on me so that they won’t feel scared or become anxious. My pets are all separated by the end of the day but together during the day. This means that all of my pets have a crate of their own, my pets have also a set schedule where they go out to use the potty and a feeding time schedule that I have hanging on the fridge. I also make sure that my pets are bathed often to avoid build up or becoming matted. Most importantly, I always have toys and treats with me!

“Grateful to Stef for walking River for her whole scheduled walk and even a few minutes extra- as an owner of a very active girl, this is something I truly appreciate. And as an added bonus, River loved Stef! :)”

Daniela Q.
“Daniela is basically the dog whisperer. She has taken care of my bull dog whose name was Layla. Layla isn’t much of a very active dog, she doesn’t like to exercise or even walk around. Daniela in the other hand, managed to get Layla to move out of her bed and run around! Never in my life have I seen Layla run. She’s a typical lazy bull dog, just wow. I’m impressed. Layla has ran, received her full exercises and became quite active.”
