Not just walk, but adventures
Pet care experience
I have been working in the dog industry for 6 years now. I am good at reading dogs behaviors and body language and am I am good at determining what the dog needs from me to be happy. I have owned animals my whole life. I enjoy going on hikes and adventures with dogs and doing more than just walks, but will be happy to take a stroll around the neighborhood if that is what your dog needs. I have done a little work with dog training and behavior so I will be happy to work on behavior issues as well. I like to make sure each dog gets the attention and exercise they need to be happy and healthy. I treat each pet as if they were my own. I value your time and hope you value mine as well. I am very flexible with timing and I know rover allows you to provide a window for time. I also understand preparing for a trip and coming home from one plans change. I am extremely happy to accommodate, especially if you just are not ready to come back to reality yet. My big request is for communication, even if it all seems to be looking the same, a confirmation at the start of the day is greatly appreciated. This allows me to adjust my schedule accordingly, such as taking dogs for a walk, or running a quick errand while i wait or stopping for gas rather than rushing home. This also allows me to not request short windows where you as clients have to be rushing the clock to make the time frame posted. I appreciate your respect for my time as well as yours and look forward to spending time with your pet.
Reviews
Our pup came back tired and
Sara is always fantastic. Brought my newly adopted dog to her who was nervous of course, but Sara kept us in the loop with how he was adjusting and when we picked him up he was happy and even tried to go back inside her house, which is always a good sign 😂 thanks as always!!
Sara is professional, reliable, trustworthy and easy to communicate with. We have two dogs we board with her. Both have different needs/energy levels and it has been a 10/10 experience each time. One of my dogs requires medication twice a day. Sara had previous experience with the medication and knew more about it than we did. Sara is great at prioritizing the needs of each dog in her care at all times. My dogs jump for joy and bark when I ask them if they want to go back to Sara's house. Thank you Sara!
Our puppy had the longest stay away from us with sara. He was happy and excited to be with others. Came back happy and we were pleased.

This is my full time job at the moment and I live every minute of it. Communication with time frame is key for me so I can continue to allow flexibility with my clients needs as well as flexibility to accommodate the specific needs of the dogs in my care. Each dog and their needs are different and each day varries greatly for me so I can provide the proper care for each pet I get to spend time with. Those changes occasionally even are determined the day before sometimes way after a booking is made. A quick confirmation or even questions about changes day of drop off or pick up will allow me to be flexible with my guest and their schedule. I understand packing to leave gets tricky and coming back to reality is tough. Letting me know you are running 15 mins late will allow me to adjust as well.
