Information Sara D. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog: food, toy, or kennel aggressive? Are there any special tricks that your pup likes to do? What's your fur baby's love language? What is the contact information for your vet?

A typical day

We have our outdoor toys, like Kong balls, braided ropes, and a kiddie pool for those hot summer days. Inside we have our different types of Nyla bones, and interactive treat finding games.

Experienced dog mom with extra love

Pet care experience

We have a house with a fenced-in backyard that's only a block from the park and a couple of blocks from the nature trail. There's plenty of room to run and play. I have two Standard Poodles that are my gentle giants, and my Toy Poodle is a total mama's boy. I've worked at a pet boarding and daycare, and have experience with all different dog sizes, breeds, and levels of health. I understand the importance of proper nutrition, timely medication, human interaction, play time and exercise, and keeping whatever environment they're in as stress-free as possible. I know what it's like to leave your beloved fur baby in the care of someone else. That's not something that I take lightly. I love my four-legged children, and will make sure that yours are loved and taken care of as if they were my own.

Sara went above and beyond when my dog had an emergency. I don’t know what I would have done without her. Sara is an incredible human with a heart of gold and I can’t thank her enough for the kindness and care she’s shown.

Sara came through for me in a pinch. My doggo loves her and she’s a reliable sitter who is great with my dog!
