Highlights
Pet care experience
Avid dog lover new to LA!
- Regular long-term (2+ weeks) sitter for a family friend’s small dog. She doesn’t do well with other dogs and is high anxiety, so I am well-versed in navigating walks and other stressors! - I adopted a medium-sized senior blind and deaf dog with arthritis during the pandemic, so I am also well-equipped in caring for high-maintenance, disabled dogs. - Overall, I have experience owning and sitting for a wide range (age, breed, socialization and training levels, etc.) of dogs, and can adapt to whatever their needs are!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
- In terms of gaining trust and acceptance with a dog, I am very comfortable moving slowly and at the dog’s pace. As someone who has had a blind and deaf dog that wasn’t able to communicate needs “traditionally,” I feel quite capable of meeting dogs where they’re at and adjusting!
Ratings and reviews
Sara was awesome! She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog can be a little nervous with new people but he warmed up to her really quickly, and it was obvious he felt comfortable with her. So happy to have found someone we trust with our dog and would absolutely recommend her!
Sara was so accommodating and communicative. She was great at answering any question I had during my trip. Thank you!
Sara is amazing with my dog. ImVery loving and caring with him. She is also very responsible and takes direction well. I recommend her with your dog.
Sara was an amazing carer for our 12 year old, who was both blind and deaf. She always showed wonderful compassion and patience. Sara is very responsible, and always follows any specific instructions you may have. I would highly recommend Sara to take care of your pet as she is by far the best caregiver we have ever had.
Sara has lovingly cared for our dog Mavis for six years, and has been our trusted sitter during travel, including stays of up to two weeks. We adore her, and so does Mavis. Sara is trustworthy, reliable, and incredibly patient. She follows my care instructions, gives Mavis her medication without issue, and is happy to do whatever Mavis needs on any given day, whether that's a five-mile walk or just sitting quietly together at the park. She's stays with Mavis in our home, and we've never had a single concern. The best endorsement is Mavis herself. Mavis isn't usually a lover, but with Sara it's all snuggles and affection. Dogs know. Our family is heartbroken Sara is moving. She is truly irreplaceable, and whoever books her next is so lucky. I highly, highly recommend her.
