About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and energy levels, from playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and care. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and providing lots of affection. I work full time, but would be able to stop by before or after work, or even during my lunch break depending on the location. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow all care instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, medication needs, or favorite toys and treats. I’m respectful of your home, clean up after myself and your pet, and always make sure they’re safe, well-exercised, and given plenty of attention.
About: Hello, I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, cats of all personalities, and even farm animals! I have worked briefly with shy dogs with an unfortunate past, from young to elderly and have been responsible for administering medicine. I have experience leash-training dogs as well as a few other commands (Sit, Stay, Shake). I am very skilled with cats having had five over my lifetime as well as cat-sitting for friends and family. I also volunteer at an animal sanctuary where I am responsible for ducks, turkeys, and chickens, and sometimes pigs and goats! This includes feeding, cleaning up, replacing water, and at times carrying them. Four of the ducks I look after are blind. I have also cared for special needs cats and dogs who are blind, deaf, or have mobility issues. I love them all and look forward to helping care for your loved ones when traveling requires you to be separated. I do work 9 hour shifts at my day job, either 6am to 3pm or 7am to 4pm, so I am unable to do drop ins or walks during those time frames. My two days off every week are Thursday and Saturday. My availability is as follows for drop ins or walks: Mondays 4pm to 8pm Tuesdays 4pm to 8pm Wednesdays 4pm to 8pm Thursdays 1pm to 8pm Fridays 3:30pm to 8pm Saturdays 7am to 8pm Sundays 4pm to 8pm. For home stays, as long as your puppy is okay with that long day shift, I will walk them before I leave and immediately upon my return from work.
“Sabrina was wonderful with my little kitten, Basil! Having never had a sitter watch her before, I wasn’t sure how she would do with strangers and it turn out she’s a little shy. Sabrina was so patient with her and did such a good job of making Basil feel as comfortable as she could. I was really impressed with the detailed updates Sabrina gave while I was away as well. Would highly recommended her services!”
