Safety, trust & environment

At our home, we have a decently sized, fenced in backyard. It is imperative to both of us that the pets are kept safe. We always have a leash on during walks, only allowing off-leash in our backyard or at dog parks. We're vigilant in making sure any pet doesn't get into anything they shouldn't. We also have a light up collar for walks at night.

Information Sara A. would like to know about your pet

Let us know if your pet isn't fond of other pets in the case of boarding. In terms of walking and just drop by's, we'd like to know all about your pet's personality! (Are they skiddish, are they friendly, and really anything relating to how to best approach them and expectations)

A typical day

We love to take walks, even in the rain. For our dog, we even have a little rain coat (and an extra for any med-large visiting dog.) A typical day for us is making sure our dog gets out and about every 4hrs or so, plays a decent amount (especially if it's just way too rainy for an effective walk; we have a bunch of toys to keep pets stimulated.

Pet care experience

We have a dog and a cat of our own. We both have grown up with medium to large sized dogs since a young age, most of whom were adopted mixed breed terriers and a few pure-breds as well; Labradors and an English Springer Spaniel specifically. We have had experience with pet-sitting for dogs who have ranged from very small on up to the size of 85+lbs. We are familiar with dogs who have separation anxiety, food aggression, and aggression toward other dogs. In the past we have facilitated the following: walks, play time, meal prep if there is a special diet, giving medication, crating if crate-trained, help with vet visits, baths (if necessary), and are comfortable caring for your furry loved one in your home.

Sara was fantastic! Our high energy dog seemed very relaxed and at easy with her during our weekend away. She was a great communicator and I loved getting regular pictures of our dog. Thank you!!

Thanks Sara for taking care of Leo. He definitely liked you and had so much to say to you and wanted all the pets!

Sara is a wonderful Dog Sitter! I highly recommend her services. I returned from a week away to a house that was cleaner than when I left and a happy and content dog. She was very attentive to my sensitive dog’s needs. She also took the time to go to the store for dog food since I miscalculated how much to leave. She is a true professional when it comes to dog & house sitting. I hope to use her again for future vacations.
