About Me
Hi, My name is Sue Huss and I live in Oregon, Ohio. In 2004 I decided to quit my job and pursue my passion, taking care of pets. This was the beginning of Pet Pampering.
It’s been quite a while since my two sons have both been married and left home, and I think much like other pet owners, my dogs are my babies.
They sleep with me and I occasionally cook regular food for them. It’s nice to know they’ll never leave home. I have three Pomeranians along with and a cat that has adopted me.
When I first started pet sitting I went to people’s house just like other pet sitter’s do.
Many times after caring for customer’s pets when it came time to leave, I’d feel so bad looking into their sad little eyes. That’s when I decided, that maybe, it would be better if I watched small dogs at my house. I had plenty of room and a large 3/4 acre lot fenced in. There they could have my undivided attention and I wouldn’t have to look into those sad eyes.
I now have many visiting canine customers that have stayed at my house over 10 times. It really makes me smile when they get here they are so excited and my dogs are very happy to see them also. They run off to play and their owners barely get to say good-by to them. I really love these dogs like my own and am sorry to see them leave.
As my business grew it was hard to go to customer’s houses three times a day and take care of dogs in my house also. Luckily I had the good fortune to meet Diane Sharlow. She became my partner and our name changed to Sue and Diane’s Pet Pampering. Much like me she is really an animal lover.
As our business grew in 2007 I had to enlist another friend, Carol Lageza to help me with some of the pet visits that we had. At the risk of repeating myself she and her husband are big animal lover’s. With Diane and Carol helping me I can spend more time at home caring for small dogs. I feel I am blessed with the greatest job in the world.
Although I wish I could care for all dogs at my house my Pomeranian Megan is very intimidated by large dogs. If you have a large dog that requires more attention my partner Diane can stay at your house. For a while she took large dogs to stay at her house but it seems her German Shepard is getting older and doesn’t tolerate energetic companions anymore.
