I’m good with staying the night at the clients house. I have references of those who I’ve stayed at and are numerously asked to pet sit. If I have work/school, I’ll feed them and put them where needed (crate, outside, whatever you need) and comeback later and spend the night.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, my dogs are outside during the day when no one is home. When we are home, the door is open for their freedom and potty time. Ive also worked on their potty training! My clients have asked for their dogs to be put outside or gated areas when no one is home, but have their freedom when someone is home.

Information Sandra M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet needs anything in particular or extra (meds, specific feeding times, etc). I cannot do needles, but I can administer oral medication. If your pet has specific preferences or dislikes, please let me know!

A typical day

With both of my dogs, I do general play time (tug of war, chasing, playing). My dog who has passed, we took her on hikes a LOT. My new dog, she’s been once. My new pup is a high energy dog, meaning I bought more stimulating toys for her.

Sandra has been great with our dog (Daisy) and cat (Taz). We have known her for years as an Eagle Scout so we knew she would be super responsible with our pets and home. She's very responsive on when she is available too. I highly recommend her. Patrick F.

Sandra is the best pet sitter we have ever worked with. We have been working with her for several years, and she has watched our two dogs, two bearded dragons, and fish on many occasions. We can rely on her to come to our house at the times she says she will stop by, to walk the dogs as asked, and to make sure the dogs feel nurtured. We unfortunately have one dog that is not quite housebroken, and Sandra has been diligent about cleaning up their mess - which we consider above and beyond expectations for a pet sitter. Our house is always in great shape when we return, and our pets are so happy and well cared for - its like they didn't notice we were gone! We so appreciate her!!

Sandra has easily made herself my go-to whenever I need a sitter! She has helped me out a handful of times now - each time I was met with thorough communication, questions for clarification, timely responses, and happy dogs to return home to. With granted permission, she had even taken it upon herself to go the extra mile of doing housework, which was all beyond appreciated. She is undoubtedly your next trustworthy pick for a new sitter!

Sandra is a loving and reliable pet sitter. We have a lot of animals (dog, cat, fish, chickens), and she has taken great care of all of them. She truly loves dogs, and it's touching to see how happy our dog is when Sandra is here. We have worked with Sandra for both drop-in care, and multi-day overnight visits. I strongly recommend Sandra.
