Pet care experience

-I am available weekdays after 3pm with every weekend and extended federal holidays off.- Since I can remember I have always been around animals. At the age of 6 we got our first family dog, he was a gorgeous Rot/Pit Rescue. I trained him and the numerous dogs we owned in my childhood and through adulthood. Around the age of 13 I started walking and grooming dogs in my neighborhood, I loved working with their dogs and the owners loved that their dogs were getting the attention the need, enjoying the outdoors, and being able to release a lot of built up energy during the day. I took pride in being able to assist those who worked full time or where physically unable to care for their dog themselves. I volunteer at my local animal shelters when I can; and really love the feeling of nurturing and taking care of an animal in need. I have taken care of both puppies and elderly dogs and understand that each dog requires different levels of patience and care to cater to their individual personalities. I have always had a passion for taking care of animals and would love to treat you fur-baby as my own. Unlimited cuddles and ear scratches are included with every service.

Sandy was great at communicating with text and pictures while she watched our dogs. Both the dogs seemed to really like her.

Sandy was very friendly and communicated regularly with updates on how our dog was doing. I would highly recommend Sandy and we’ll be bringing our dog back to her! Thanks again!

I can't be any happier with Sandy's services with watching/handling my puppy!! I would highly recommend her for dog sitting. I'll definitely be using her again in the near future? Thank you very much Sandy!!!

Sandy is a caring individual that I trust with my dogs. She bonds well with them as they do to her. Sandy is very thoughtful and I plan on having her back again.

Information Sandy S. would like to know about your pet

I have no preferences, I've worked with most dog breeds and different ages. I would like to know your dogs known commands, if they are allowed treats, any allergies or special needs, and how well they get along with other dogs, cats, or children.

A typical day

For walks I will take your dog to a local park; this can include running or rollerskating depending on your dogs personality and needs. We can play fetch, tug of war, or go to some of the local dog parks to bond and play with other friendly dogs.
