About Mariah S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When your pets are with me in my home or I’m staying at yours, the routine is built around comfort, safety, and fun. That means sticking to their feeding schedules, giving them the right balance of exercise and play, and making time for cuddles and rest. I treat your pets with the same care and respect I give my own.

Reviews
Sage is an exceptional sitter, and goes above and beyond when caring for your pets/home! We can be really anxious about leaving our pets when we travel, but this was the most at ease we have ever felt. Not once did we worry about our cats/dog while away. Sage provided us photos and daily updates, letting us know how each pet was doing. Our pets had excellent care and plenty of quality time. Not only did we come home to safe, happy animals (most importantly), we also came home to a really clean house! Sage helped with a number of house tasks (from taking out trash, picking up waste in the backyard, laundry, and more). We really could not have asked for a better sitter, and will definitely be hiring Sage again in the future.
Sage (Mariah) was a great dog sitter to our two pups for the weekend (including through an unexpected power outage), and left our house super neat and clean, which is always appreciated! Thank you very much for everything!
We could not have asked for better care for our large fur family! Watching four dogs and three cats is no small feat, but everything was handled flawlessly. Not only were the animals exceptionally well loved and cared for, but we returned to a house that was actually cleaner and better than when we left it. Mariah (Sage) went above and beyond, taking care of the fridge and leaving the entire home absolutely pristine. If you are looking for someone who is responsible, respectful, and truly excellent with pets, look no further. We will absolutely be booking again. Thank you so much for the incredible peace of mind!
Attentive and took great care! Flexible and responsive, will use again!
