About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life, gaining experience in cat, dog, and even fish pet care. Currently, I have worked as a Kennel Assistant at Hayfield Animal Hospital for the past year. Through my job as a Kennel Assistant, I clean dog/cat cages, provide new food/water, and take dog boarders on walks. Due to my experience in this job, I have the skills to handle animals with different behavioral issues/needs comfortably. Furthermore, I have been a volunteer through the Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation for the past three years. As a volunteer, I clean cat cages, provide new food, water, and socialization, along with holding meet and greets with potential adopters at the 7 Corners PetSmart. I have also taken a two-year Veterinary Sciences course at my high school where I gained hands-on experience with different animal handling techniques and was educated on disease and behavior signs and symptoms. Overall, my experiences in animal pet care and handling have given me the ability to be comfortable and safe when handling different animals. I'm currently working part-time for the Summer, so I will be available a good amount of the time to help take care of your pets! I am normally available most mornings and nights. I expect to be unavailable some mornings from 6am-12pm and some evenings from 3pm-7pm. However, this varies depending on my schedule for the week. Having pets of my own for the past 18 years, I know first-hand how important your pets are. Not only will I provide them with a safe environment, but I will treat them as my own, making sure that they remain happy and enjoy their time with my while you are away! When in my client's home, I will be neat and tidy, cleaning up after myself and your pet(s) if needed. Personally, I understand how hard it is to be away from your fur baby, so I will send video or picture updates as requested!

About: I’ve taken care of many pets in the past. I also have a long time favorite customer that i continually go back to for visits. I go to Nova Community College full time and work part time as an RBT (registered behavior technician) with autistic children. I own 3 dogs of my own at the current moment, so taking care of them is part of my daily routine. Anything I can do. I have a fenced in backyard at my home and i let my dogs walk freely. I’m open to any accommodations needed for dogs +cats.

“Sarah was amazing as a dog walker for my pups! She was very responsive, came exactly on time for the walk, and was clearly so sweet and loving with both of my dogs! One of my pups is quite shy and Sarah spent extra time with her to get her comfortable before the walk which was above and beyond amazing. Will absolutely book with her again in the future!”

“Let me tell you about Cleo’s best friend Monique!!!! I went on a last minute trip and had to leave Cleo behind for the first time. I was SO anxious and felt super guilty about leaving her alone. Monique was very diligent about showing up, sending reports, and following my tedious instructions about leaving the TV on/moving our coffee table for our roomba lol. I felt like she actually wanted to be there and love on Cleo. Cleo loves tug of war and Monique would play with her literally every time she visited and made sure she got her treat’o’s. I’m glad I don’t have to go through the trial and error process of finding our go to dog sitter for Cleo! I’ll be contacting her very soon for their next play date.”

About: Even though this is my first time using this site; I am ready to accept this new challenge. A little about myself is, I love animals! I work a nurse schedule so I have the freedom of being able to share my free time spending them with your lovely furr friends. I am a cat person as well as a dog person. I am very patient and caring to all. I have great time management skills so I can efficiently get everything any dog owner needs me to do at a reasonable time frame. I will treat each and every dog with lots of love and attention as if they were my own !! I am very social so I will definitely love to play endlessly with any dog I take care of. I am very excited and eager to start this new adventure in my life ! I am currently working three times a week. This gives me the liberty to provide any dog or cat services on my days off !! What I provide is a safe environment that is appropriate to each pet. I would care for each pet the same way as if they were my own. With the up-most love and care.

About: I’m a reliable and patient animal lover who enjoys spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, active, and cared for while their owners are away. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and maintaining routines to keep pets comfortable and happy. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and energy level and can provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I’m also comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and shy pets that may need extra patience and attention. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m able to provide reliable attention and care throughout the week. I’m flexible with drop-in visits and can make sure your cat stays fed, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I enjoy spending time playing with cats, giving them attention, and keeping their routine consistent to help them feel relaxed and safe. I always make sure pets are cared for in a calm, clean, and safe environment. I follow feeding schedules carefully, keep litter boxes clean, and pay close attention to each cat’s behavior and comfort level. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines while providing updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to make every pet feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: I've been fortunate to have pets since I was young, including newts, rabbits, and dogs. My beloved Marley lived a wonderful 17 years, and he's deeply missed. For the past 8 years, I've been passionate about professional pet care, and I truly love what I do. I'm certified in CPR and first aid for pets, which helps me feel confident in caring for animals. I enjoy taking walks and supporting pet owners in their care routines. To me, being helpful and kind to all living beings is very important. I'm here for you and your furry friend every day of the week! During weekdays, I happily offer daily dog walks from 9am to 5pm, with slight variations possible if I have overnight visits. On weekends, I also enjoy taking your dog for walks between 9am and 5pm, unless I'm booked overnight. I can't wait to help care for your dog and provide peace of mind for you! I used positive reinforcement with treats for dogs. I make sure to show up on time for each visit. Make sure the animal has fresh water, food, or meds if needed. Check to see if the area where the dog or cat has access is clean. Then I get the dog outside so they can enjoy their visit. If I'm doing overnights I make sure the lights are rotated on and off, take out trash, bring in mail, and packages. My goal is to make sure your pets are comfortable and well taken care of.
