Safety, trust & environment

I care for the pets like they are my own. We have plenty of snuggle time, time outside, and play time. For house sitting I spend a lot of time at the owner’s house, and make sure the pet is as comfortable as can be with a new person in their environment.

Information Sara A. would like to know about your pet

How are they around other dogs, animals, and in public? Are they on any medication? Are they leash reactive or barrier reactive? Are there any triggers I should be aware of or keep an eye out to make sure your pet is as comfortable as can be.

A typical day

A typical day would include cuddles and walks along your neighborhood, playing with toys and if there are any puzzles you have then I’ll make sure they are thoroughly used.

Teacher With a Passion for Animals

Pet care experience

A teacher with a love for animals! I have two rabbits of my own (gated off in a separate room) and always have loved dogs. I’ve been watching and walking my friends and neighbors dogs and pets for years now. I’ve taken care of severely anxious dogs, puppies, a blind senior dog that needed extra precaution on walks and around the house, given medicine to dogs, I’ve watched cats as well! From snuggles on the couch and in bed to walks around the pond in my neighborhood, I’ll give just as much love to them as my own. I am offering services for check ins, walks, and house sitting. Most holidays I’m in town, so feel free to reach out!
