“Milo was so great with our babies! He was really responsive and all of them were so happy when we got home. Our cat had surgery a week ago, and we felt very comfortable leaving him at home under the care of Milo.”


About: Animals have always been a part of my life; I’ve cared for both dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I’m the person who happily hangs out with pets at parties. I have experience with pets who need daily medication and extra TLC, especially senior animals or those with chronic conditions. Whether it’s a slow stroll or high-energy zoomies, I adjust to what your pet needs most. While I don’t have a yard, I do live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with a fully fenced dog park just steps away—perfect for safe off-leash play! I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they’re my own. Can’t wait to meet yours 💕 I work full-time from home with a very flexible schedule, which means I’ve got plenty of time to shower your pet with attention, walks, snuggles, and play. I’m also a bit of a homebody, so your pup will rarely—if ever—be left alone. If your pet thrives on company and routine, we’ll get along great! I take multiple walks every day and would be happy to match your pup’s routine—whether they love long strolls, quick potty breaks, or both. At home, your dog is welcome on the couch and the bed (plenty of room for snuggles!), but if you'd prefer they stick to their own space, I’m happy to keep those boundaries consistent. Whatever makes your dog feel safe, relaxed, and at home, I’m here for it. If it makes you more comfortable, you're more than welcome to request a meeting with me well in advance of any booking so that you can ensure that my home will be a good fit.

“Sarah was the best!! Our dog was so comfortable with her and it was great to have the peace of mind of having a responsible sitter while we were out of town. She sent us pictures and videos every day and we came home to a happy and healthy puppy. We will definitely rebook with her for our future trips!”
