Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in your home, I will always be respectful of your space and follow your instructions closely. I do my best to keep each pet’s routine consistent, so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to make their time without you as stress-free and familiar as possible, to keep those tails wagging!

Information Sage S. would like to know about your pet

I want every pet to feel their best while in my care, so let me know if your dog has any extra needs, preferences, or specific routines I should follow. For example; a specific bedtime routine, a certain way to handle their food, reassurance while on walks, etc.

A typical day

I love keeping dogs active and engaged! On our walks, I make sure they get plenty of time to sniff and explore—it’s great mental stimulation. I also give them lots of physical exercise, whether it’s playing fetch in the yard or going for a fun stroll. And if you’d like, I’m happy to take your pup to the dog park so they can safely socialize and make new furry friends! 🐕 ✨

Pet care experience

I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking for over six years, caring for pups of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! I’m super patient and always take the time to make dogs feel comfortable, especially those who might be a little shy at first. Building trust is important to me, and I always respect each pet’s unique boundaries. Plus, I’m Red Cross certified in pet first aid—so your furry family is in safe, loving hands! 🐾🩷

Sage did a wonderful job caring for our three dogs and our home while we were away for several days. She truly went above and beyond, providing thoughtful updates, plenty of photos, and excellent care throughout our time away. Knowing everything was in Sage’s hands made it easy for us to relax, even from far away. She also took great care of our home. We will absolutely reach out to Sage again for future trips and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional, trustworthy care.

Sage was amazing! This is the first time we used her as a doggie sitter for our baby Gracie, she was so great taking care of her and we look forward to using Sage again. In our opinion, she is the BEST!!! 🩷😊🐶

Sage was great caring for our 3 highly anxious pets (2 big dogs and a cat). She was very communicative and sent lots of photos. We appreciated the updates while away and hope to book with Sage again!
