Information Sara B. would like to know about your pet

I have no preference on breed or species! I am comfortable with any animal (unless they are aggressive). I currently own a sweet shelter pup, cat, and a horse. I have experience with lots of different animals. If you have a farm, I have experience livestock as well! I grew up on a farm with lot of goats, chickens, horses, sheep, llamas, etc. I do not have experience with exotics but I am more than willing to learn and love them too! Before the booking I would like to know your pet's routine, likes, dislikes, feeding schedule, if you are expecting me to bring or provide anything during the booking, and any quirks they may have that makes them unique! The more information the better so that I can provide the best quality care for them and we can build a trusting relationship.

A typical day

When I am taking care of your pet our schedule will totally depend on them. If your pet likes long walks around the block, belly rubs, laser pointers, Netflix binges, cuddles, or their ball thrown repeatedly, what they say goes. Treats are always a fan favorite when I'm watching your pet and I will ensure they have quality care.

Did someone say “walkies”?!

Pet care experience

I’m a Texas farm girl born and raised. I’ve taken care of goats, sheep, rabbits, horses, dogs, cats, llamas, and more! I have always considered myself an animal lover and am “that person” who always asks to pet your dog. My family has relied on me for years for their pet sitting needs and I would love to help with yours too! I’m comfortable with any breed or species. Who is ready for walkies?! I currently work full time Monday through Friday. I do have some work-from-home flexibility. I will be primarily available in the evenings and on weekends. I am also willing to wake up bright and early for breakfast and walks if needed. I have never met an animal I didn't like! I know how much I love my pets and I know you feel the same about yours. I promise to take care of your furbabies as if they were my own. I feel comfortable with any age and have experience giving medications. I love my repeat clients so I would love to build a relationship with not only the pet, but their parents. If I am to provide walks or drop ins please let me know about your environment so I can ensure the most comfortable experience for your pet. I also know where the dog parks are in town and have a vehicle large enough to take your dog if you would like. I also would like to know about neighborhood walking routes by your home if that is requested. I always do a meet and greet before booking any new pet. I want you and your furbaby to feel comfortable with our connection. Please let me know anything and everything to ensure your pets get the best care during my service.

She was very patient with Lumiere and made sure he had plenty of food while I was gone. Thank you!

Sara is awesome! Her communication is excellent, and we know our senior doggies (who aren’t always the easiest) are well cared for when she checks in on them. We will definitely keep booking with her!

Sara is fantastic! Our two senior dogs are always happy after her visits, and she’s great about checking in and sending lots of pictures. We’re so glad we found her to care for our boys!
