Tails, start your wagging

Pet care experience

I have extensive experience in caring for dogs and cats as well as rabbits, hamsters, snakes, turtles, guinea pigs, chickens, dwarf goats and tropical fish. I understand what pet owners want for their fur family while in a sitter’s care and I can promise you that I will treat your buddies just as if they were my own. They will be my #1 priority while in my care. NOTE: If you need Drop-in care or Walking service on short-notice AND your pet is people-friendly and trigger-free, please reach out to see if I’m available to help you out last minute! In most cases, I prefer to meet my furry clients with their owners to make sure we’re going to have a great fit. There is never a charge for a Meet & Greet. This is an opportunity to review your pet’s care needs, routines and our mutual expectations for the time I am caring for them. If you require vacation care, I am happy to bring in your mail, water plants and switch porch or indoor lights off/on while you are away. Just let me know! Dog Walking & Drop-in Visits: Dogs are walked on a fixed-line leash. If you don’t have one, no sweat! I’ll bring one of my own. While I am prepared to walk in all sorts of weather, in case of severe weather that is excessively hot, sub-freezing cold or stormy; we will walk only until all toileting needs are met and then head back to the house for some extra playtime and affection.

Sara was our first dog-walker we worked with after joining Rover and she is great! You can tell she is very comfortable working with all kinds of dogs, and her walk recaps and photos that she sends after walking our Teddy are the cutest. She’s extremely responsive and professional and would highly recommend working with her !

Sara was great with my kitties and have very thorough notes about her visits. Having her checking in on my fuzzy friends made me so much more comfortable being out of town. I will definitely be asking for her help again in the future!

Sara took great care of our cats and made us comfortable leaving them at home during our vacation. The updates helped us know they were in good hands. Would definitely hire her again and highly recommend.

Sara is wonderful! My very picky kitties took right to her and remained social with her during the week based on the many pics she took during daily visits. Her reports are very thorough and she went above and beyond when the boys decided to try and turn my kitchen into a swimming pool by splashing out their water bowls. She also alerted me to the fact they need a bigger litter box (new place, so still settling in). I was worried about finding someone great to look after my two elderly boys and am super lucky to have found her!

Safety, trust & environment

Let me know about any special requests you may have for your house or your pets. I’m willing and able to handle extra tasks that need done while I’m there. Whether you forgot to turn down the AC or an unexpected package is on the doorstep, don’t hesitate to ask me about doing it!

Information Sara L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about your pet’s energy level, any special needs or anxiety triggers while on walks or in the house. How are your pup’s leash manners? Are you undergoing training that you’d like me to work on while I am caring for your pet? I also have experience in giving animals oral and injected medications and if that is something your pet needs, I will certainly see that it gets done.

A typical day

During Drop-ins, pets have me all to themselves while we take care of potty business, play games, eat a treat and enjoy some affection from me to them. On walks, I’ll explore your neighborhood with your pooch while they (most likely) do a great deal of sniffing around to see who else has signed nature’s guestbook. I keep an eye on the weather and your pup’s comfort level.
