Working from home grants me the flexibility to dedicate significant time to caring for pets every day. I'm a stickler for order and cleanliness, ensuring a tidy and secure home that's perfect for looking after the pets in my care. Providing them with all the attention they need, including training and heaps of love, is my top priority. I genuinely believe pets are the ultimate companions, and creating a welcoming, affectionate space for them is both my joy and commitment.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, whether in my home or at the client's, I ensure they are never alone. I'm always present to take them for walks, engage in playtime, and feed them at their scheduled times. My home is equipped with a spacious garden area that I've recently upgraded with turf and a secure fence. This enhancement allows me to provide an even better service to my clients by maintaining a clean, safe, and well-maintained space, especially considering the challenging weather we face in this area during winter. The addition of turf provides animals with a mud-free area to run and play, making it a much more inviting and enjoyable environment for exploration and playtime.

Information Sandra O. would like to know about your pet

When entrusting your cherished pet to my care, I kindly request essential details to ensure their well-being. Please bring printed responses to the care-related questions.

A typical day

I love taking dogs for walks on the nearby trails, and there's a fenced dog park just a couple of blocks away from my house. I only take care of one dog at a time or two if they're from the same family, so I can give them all the attention and security they need. Sometimes during the summer, I like to take walks by the lake, and if your dog enjoys swimming or getting wet and you're okay with it, I'd be happy to take them for a refreshing swim in the lake. We'll also have playtime at my home depending on each dog's energy and preference.

Your Pet's Home Away from Home 🐶❤️

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Sandra and I've been surrounded by animals my whole life, from dogs and horses to cats, rabbits, birds, fish, and more. Animals are a huge part of my life and I absolutely love spending time with them. If your furry friend needs a place to stay for a few nights, my home is spacious, clean, and conveniently located near parks where we can go for walks and playtime. I can also come to your home to feed your pet, clean their cage, and give them plenty of love and attention. I'll make sure your furry friend feels right at home and give them all the care and attention they need while you're away. Thank you for considering me to care for your best friend!

Sandra was fantastic. She had great communication throughout and took excellent care of my two cats. They were clearly well looked after, and I would definitely book with her again.

Marmot had a great time with Sandra! She has a big yard, lovely home, and treated Marmot like her own dog. We loved seeing the videos of him playing and getting treats! When we picked Marmot up he seemed sad to leave, but he was very relaxed and that showed us he had a great stay!

Sandra took excellent care of my dog, Gatsby. Her house had a big backyard to play in and he LOVED it. Sandra was extremely friendly, communicative, and understanding of all of Gatsby’s quirks. She sent tons of cute videos and pictures. Gatsby was so happy there. Would absolutely recommend her and will be booking her again!
