About: As a pet sitter, I am knowledgeable in puppy and elder dog care, medication administration, and reading pet body language, ensuring every dog and cat feels safe and loved. I currently have an open schedule, I am retired and I have dedicated my spare time to helping animals! You’ll find me either with my daughter’s dog or sitting a friends dog.

“Sarah is great! She took the job in a short notice and was very responsive with messages and instructions. Sarah visited my 1.5 year old cat three times and each time she wrote me a detailed description of the visit and also took tons of pictures. Because my cat always takes some litter out with him after doing his business, Sarah even swept and vacuumed the bathroom floor for me:). She also helped to feed wet food during her visit and refill dry food for the other days, which was exactly what I hoped for. With her tremendous knowledge and responsibilities, she gave me a lot of caring tips regarding nutrition. I couldn’t be more satisfied with her good service and would highly recommend her to anybody. Although my experience with Sarah was only limited to cat, I’m sure she is an excellent dog sitter as well with all the dedications she had shown. Thank you Sarah.”
