Information Sandra A. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has any special diet, medication, or care needs please let me know and I’ll confirm if I can accommodate them. Most likely I can but what is most important to me is ensuring your pet has the care he or she needs. If for any reason I’m not sure I can accommodate special needs I will let you know to ensure you’re matched with a care provider that can. My ultimate goal is to endure your pet is happy, healthy, and loved.

A typical day

I start my day with walking my dog and dogs I’m sitting. I’m home most of the day and will ensure play time, generous potty breaks, and lots of playtime.

Sandra took care of our Ziggy from June 22nd through June 27th. She did a wonderful job and we will definitely use her again when needed. She kept us updated daily, sent pictures and videos so we could see how he was doing. He was a little shy at first, but warmed up to her easily. We could tell he was very happy and loved the visits. Thanks Sandy, we really appreciated the great care you took of Ziggy.

Took fantastic care of our pup and you could tell in the pictures how happy she was. Her pup, Lulu , is as sweet as they come and very playful and tolerant. I will definitely use again and highly recommend.

Oliver and Sawyer had a wonderful time staying with Sandy and Lulu. They had such fun playing ball, running in the yard and made a new friend! Sandy is a fantastic care giver and treated our dogs like they were her own. They loved their time with her! Would absolutely recommend and use her again.

Sandy watched my cat, Priscilla, for an entire week while I was traveling. I was at ease knowing she was in good hands! Sandy is very trustworthy, communicative, and truly loves animals. She sent me pictures almost every day and I know Priscilla was well taken care of. I would recommend her to everyone who is in need of a pet caretaker. 10/10!
