Home full time & I love long walks.
Pet care experience
I am a lover of people and animals. My mom is a wildlife biologist, so I grew up with a deep sense of respect for all living beings. I believe that animals should be shown the same level of respect and sensitivity as humans. I’m very active and I enjoy walking, so I’ll be fine taking your dog for long walks. I’m intuitive and attentive. I pay attention to subtle cues. I take pride and great care in everything I do. As a singer/songwriter, my days are flexible and fluid. I have a dog of my own who is like my child. Yes I’m one of those who lets their dog kiss them on the mouth. I won’t force your pet to do that though ;) My dog Sadie is small and calm and would make a great playmate for your dog if you need boarding. Dogs have always loved me and I am certain that yours will too!
Reviews
Hannah was amazing! our cat was injured last minute before our trip, and she was so caring and flexible with us and our last minute changes and complications, and stepped up to give pain pills and extra care. Sky adored her and we appreciated all the updates and photos she sent. she made us feel a lot of ease while leaving our healing kitty in her hands.
My third time having Hannah sit Indy and cannot be more pleased with the care and love Hannah provides. Very grateful for her help!
Hannah is such a wonderful sitter. Our dogs just love her and she takes such good care of them. She has such a good sense about animals and is just generally a joy to work with.
I’m grateful for the opportunity to have Hannah’s continued presence as our house/cat sitter. She has developed a real connection with our beloved cat which is invaluable when we need to leave for long periods. I have peace when I’m away and know my home and cat are safe and very lovingly care for.
About Hannah S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I follow all the safety procedures requested of me. I never let dogs off-leash, even if the owner says it’s okay. I personally don’t want to be liable for a runaway dog that could lead to conflict or injury. I make sure they don’t have access to foods they may be allergic to or things they may chew on and ingest. I keep dogs separated if they get territorial during feeding times by whatever means the client suggests. While walking I generally avoid encounters with other dogs, just in case. I only allow for mingling when someone tells me so and so down the street is their buddy. I make sure gates and entrances are closed. I’ve never had anyone get loose and don’t intend to. I also make sure that I know where the pets are when we are home. I’m hyper-vigilant because their safety is important to me.
Home
Information Hannah S. would like to know about your pet
Let me know about medications, existing health issues, aggressive traits or things that may trigger them and cause anxiety. Let me know what behavioral traits we want to encourage or discourage. I will keep training them as requested. Write it all down for me. More is better!
A typical day
We can go for long walks, play with toys and cuddle on the bed or couch. I love a lap dog! It’s important to me that your dogs emotional needs are met.

I am a singer songwriter so my schedule is very flexible. When I accept bookings I make sure that I can always meet the owners expectations. I am always transparent about my availability and the amount of time I can be at the house at any given time.
