About: Hello! My name is Sarah Zarlenga. I am an absolute animal person. I couldn't imagine life without a dog or other animal companion by my side. We tend to have an immediate understanding and bond that is indescribable with words alone. That being said, I actually have 4 canine friends of my own. I have a senior, male Siberian Husky named Chaos, a Doberman mix named Alrik, a male German Shepherd named Arthur, & a Papillon/Rat Terrier named Little Guy. I have also cared for over 60 large, hound breed dogs at once on a daily basis for a dog rescue in Texas for 2 years, and I volunteered and worked for another dog and horse rescue with several breeds including huskies and pit bulls for over 3 years. I also helped care for the rescued horses, cats, & chickens, so I have experience with their care as well. Furthermore, I helped out at an Aussie breeder for about a year. I have also learned service dog training techniques, and am well versed in basic obedience training from the time I had my first Chocolate Lab puppy at age 7. I would be happy to lend a caring and helping hand to you and your animals when the need arises. I only wish to treat you and your animals as if I were an extended family member to ensure a proper fit for premium care for all involved! Feel free to send me a message if you'd like to get to know me further, and hopefully plan a care visit. Thank you for stopping by to become acquainted! Why I love dog sitting I have loved dogs ever since I can remember. We had a few dogs when I was a small child, but the one we had the longest (from 2 months old till the end of her life at 13 years) was a super sweet & intelligent Chocolate Lab whom we called Angel. Her and I grew up together. I would take her on walks and play with her all of the time. Later on, I lived with my dad and he got us a puppy who grew to become a 125 lb Belgian Shepherd named Buddy, so I would take him for walks and to play at the dog park. Now, I have 4 dogs of my own who I consider to be my fuzzy children. I love spending time playing with them in the yard, taking them for walks or bike rides, taking them to the dog park, and grooming & caring for them. I also give them nutritious treats (like vegetables) which they absolutely love! They are spoiled with all of my love and affection. All of the amazing experiences with dogs & other animals in my life have inspired me to work closely with them on a daily basis in order to cultivate a healthy and renewed symbiotic relationship between animals and humans that can grow stronger in each new generation. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering medication in the form of pills. I also have a little experience administering shots. I am currently a stay-at-home-mom caring for my 3 year old daughter & newborn son. We take daily walks with our dogs. The kids and I would be able to take your dog for a walk using a stroller if needed. I treat the animals I care for with respect, and I am always paying close attention to their signals. I will make sure the environment I walk them in is safe and will always pay close attention to our surroundings to ensure a pleasant walk.

“Emily did a great job keeping us in the loop of Briar’s activities and that he was doing well. Made it easy to relax during our vacation. she also made it super convenient to meet me for pick up closer to the airport to save additional time for both of us. We will definitely look her up in the future.”

About: I have taken care of all of our pets since I was little! I help family friends out when they go out of town, or just for a walk. Dogs give the greatest form of unconditional love so I want to give it in return. I do not work at the moment so I have the free time and ability to take care of pups with up most enjoyment and freedom. I can walk your dog, or play with them if you have a fence! I walk my dogs and try to play fetch with them because that is their favorite things to do.

About: You're not just hiring another pet sitter; you're entrusting your beloved dog to someone whose life has been filled with canine companionship from day one. Growing up with dogs wasn't just about having pets; it was a hands-on education in understanding their nuanced body language, anticipating their needs, and fostering genuine connections built on trust and affection. This lifelong immersion has instilled in me an intuitive understanding that goes beyond standard training, allowing me to provide a level of care that feels less like a service and more like an extension of the loving home your dog already knows. I am currently a stay at home mom so will have plenty of time for your pets , love doing outdoor activities with the dogs also love cuddling and loving on all the animals I will take your dog out on leash every couple hours unless they need more, I have a chiweenie and German shepherd that loves having friends to play with and my children are amazing with animals as well.

“Our dog loves Brianna and Ali so much! He would get so excited every morning when he saw them. She is very reliable and great at communicating. I would highly recommend!”

About: Dogs are a marvelous source of companionship. I show them compassion and are attentive to their needs. I enjoy running with dogs, playing fetch, holding, and petting dogs. I have experience in playing with dogs, grooming, bathing, feeding, and walking dogs. While growing as a young child, my dad brought home various dogs at sundry times. I was the dog's main caregiver. My mother eventually would release the dogs because she did not like them, but I was able to build a solid experience and bond with them before she did. In Jamaica where my parents were born, their are many outdoor dogs roaming the streets. I easily befriend them and usually play with them and feed them. My schedule is flexible with me usually being available in the morning. If the price for my service is not suitable for you, I am open for negotiation. Call or text me. God bless you and your family.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life! I’ve cared for and loved a variety of breeds from weinerdogs to saint bernards and never met a pup I didn’t love. I work from home full time, M-F and have a very flexible schedule for plenty of potty breaks, walks, cuddles, and snacks. I have a 4 year old aussie corgi mix named Mac and he loves to have friends over. I live in a house with a partially fenced yard. I do have two leads that are long enough to allow access to the full yard. My dog Mac is very friendly and playful, but does well acknowledging body language if your dog is elderly and/or done playing. Your pup will have full access to the house and yard just as if it were their own! Mac has never met a dog he hasn’t adored and would love to help keep your pup entertained with lots of playtime.. sending your sweet pup home, ready for a nap.

“We are truly thankful and appreciative for Jessica! She was not only attentive, professional, and reliable, but more importantly, we trusted the care and safety provided by her. If I can confirm your belief or bring comfort to the idea of leaving your loved ones, then book Jessica. She (and her adorable pup, Sunny) are the one for you!”

“Rex had a great day with Anna and her dog and cat. Rover has been a great resource while we were traveling. Anna watched our dog while my son took a college tour and it was great not having to worry about him!”

About: Pets have always been center stage in my life. Currently I share my home with three cats and a granddog who likes to visit and go for walks with me. My love and appreciation for animals has sparked my desire to be a pet sitter. I began my pet sitting journey by caring for pets belonging to friends, neighbors, and family. I gained experience providing for pets needing oral medication, accommodating frightened and lonely animals, and behaving in a manner which gained the trust of my new furry friends. I am a retired teacher and have a flexible schedule. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening schedules. I am also available for overnight stays for both pet and house sitting. I am able to meet all expectations while caring for your pet at home. I have a large country property to provide stimulating outdoor time for overnight furry guests. I will take all precautions needed to provide a safe and comfortable environment for your furry companions,

About: I have had pets all my life and have always been one of the primary caretakers for them. I love animals! I have 1 female cat of my own who is spayed. She has been around dogs and other cats and she is friendly with smaller dogs and other cats, but typically hides from larger dogs. I am a work from home mom (Monday through Friday), so I am home all day and can take breaks when needed. Lots of love and attention for my animals during my work day! I am able to take potty breaks and walks outside off and on throughout the day since I work from home! If you have a cat, I already have litter boxes cleaned and ready to go since I have a sweet kitty of my own.

“Did great with Quincy and keeps you updated 👍🏻👍🏻”

About: I love all animals. I especially love dogs and cats. I have worked with animal rescue groups and I volunteer my time to help shelters and their efforts. I have had dogs and cats all of my life. Mostly large breeds. I am comfortable with any large breed. I am also very patient with dogs that are still learning. When I am walking a dog I am fully focused on them and do not try to rush them. I help reassure them if they feel anxious or unsure of their surroundings. It should be an enjoyable and healthy experience for the dog and for me as well! I would like to have several regulars that know me and are excited to get a routine going. Having a relationship with the dog and owners is important to me so everyone can feel comfortable.

About: I have had a dog, birds, and a cat my whole life, which has given me a deep understanding of various pet needs and behaviors. This lifelong experience allows me to provide attentive and compassionate care tailored to each animal's unique personality. Whether it's walking my dog, ensuring my birds are happy, or giving my cat the love and attention they crave, I bring a wealth of knowledge and love to pet sitting. Your pets will feel right at home with me! As a college student, I have plenty of time between classes and after to care for pets. Here’s how I fit pet care into my schedule: Daily Routine: Free Time Between Classes: I can take pets for short walks or play with them during breaks. Afternoons and Evenings: After classes, I have time to spend with pets, feeding them, playing, and giving them attention. Weekly Routine: Flexible Schedule: My class schedule allows me to have regular check-ins and activities with pets throughout the week. Weekends: I have more time on weekends for longer walks, outings, and grooming sessions. This flexibility means I can give pets the care and love they need while balancing my studies! Having a friendly dog to keep me company is a wonderful benefit when caring for pets. My dog creates a welcoming atmosphere that helps other animals feel more at ease. Their friendly nature encourages socialization, reducing stress and promoting play among pets. Additionally, my dog's routine helps me stay organized with walks, feeding, and playtime, ensuring that all pets get the attention they need. Their calming presence also builds trust with new pets, making them feel safe and comfortable. Overall, my dog adds joy and comfort to the pet care experience, making it even more enjoyable for everyone involved.
