Ya gotta love dogs!
Pet care experience
Hi there! I am a certified occupational therapist assistant, and got my bachelor's degree at GVSU in Michigan in 2018. Growing up there were always dogs in our home. When I turned 8, my mom started me in 4-H showing our dogs, it was a great experience. When I was in high school, I volunteered at Mackenzie's Animal Sanctuary for 4 years. I worked with a plethora of dogs with various breeds, ages, and dispositions. We really focused on training each dog by reinforcing good behaviors with praise or treats, and a quick, stern "no" with non- favorable behaviors. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there, and hope to return to volunteering here at a shelter once I get established in my new job. Throughout the years I've worked with more than 20 different breeds, and with dogs aged 3 months to 13 years. I am a huge dog person, you can definitely trust that your four-legged family member will be well taken care of.
Reviews
Sara, thank you. You are an awesome walker and friend to Duke. All our appreciation.
Sara is wonderful! You can tell she really loves dogs and is great navigating any quirks or special accommodations you may need. My dog can be pretty nervous/reactive and Sara was able to handle that professionally and make my dog comfortable and happy during her stay. She communicates frequently and sends photos with her updates, which is much appreciated. Definitely recommend😊
Sara was communicative and took great care of the our dogs and house! She gave updates and sent photos and worked with our dogs to make sure they were comfortable. We’d definitely work with her again.

If they are good with other dogs. If they are house-trained. What time of day they need their meals or medication. And any favorite toys.
A typical day
I'm a big runner, biker and hiker. I thoroughly enjoy doing anything outside. I have a wicked arm for ball tossing, so I can throw the ball to their heart's content.
