We have a a nice chunk of land with a fence and one dog to play with your furbaby her name is Shadow and she is so sweet and old, but still has energy for fun. We have a pond to wade in as well which is Shadows favorite thing to do. We are always keeping an eye on all of our animals and make sure they are safe and always have what they need. We also have 4 indoor kitties but they usually hide when company is around.

It is important to know if your animal has any sensitivities before hand that way we can make the stay as enjoyable and smooth as possible.

When Dogs come to visit they really enjoy the laid back vibe and the pond with so much space to run, fetch, and play. Shadow is always so excited to have play dates as well!

Pet care experience

I have had animals since I was a young girl and was always responsible for caring for them in any way the family needed. I helped watch friends animals as well. I currently have animals of my own that I adore as much as my adult children :). They bring love and light into our home.

Where do I start? Sara went far above and beyond on multiple levels! I needed very last-minute boarding care over the holidays for my big, rambunctious Doberman mix and amazingly, Sara was available. Our meet and greet made me feel so confident about leaving my guy with her, and her frequent updates and photos throughout my trip just added to my confidence that he was in great hands with her. Additionally, Sara was very proactive and communicative when my pup had an off day - she gave me a thorough explanation of his symptoms and was very deferential to how I wanted to proceed. Thankfully it ended up being a non-issue, but I really appreciated her attentiveness. Lastly, when my return travel plans went comically awry, Sara didn’t bat an eye at keeping my guy for a whole extra day. Her flexibility and positivity made my bad travel day so much lighter. During a stressful trip, it was a huge gift to know that my pup was getting such good care - it’s clear that Sara is great with all animals and loves them like her own. I can’t recommend her highly enough and will definitely be booking with her again soon! Thank you, Sara! - Janine and Frodo

We were in Placerville to attend a friend’s memorial service and had no where to leave Dash. When we found Sara on Rover, we hit the jackpot! Sara has the most wonderful property to give your dog the play time that they will love. I knew that Dash was having the best time ever, from the photos, and the videos that Sara would send me. This was all confirmed by Dash, for when we got back to our hotel, he conked out for the rest of the night. Sara is a dog loving professional and I do not hesitant in recommending her services!

We love Sara! Pepper gets excited when we get close to her house. She has a great time there and I know she’s well taken care of! Sara is my go-to for care now!

I love Sara! I left my 3 month old border collie puppy for a full day and it was my first time being away from him for that long. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day and was so sweet! I’m so relieved to have someone I can trust with my baby 🩷
