Remington home for hounds!
Pet care experience
I grew up outside of Pittsburgh, and when I was younger, my family had a golden retriever named Beau. He was one of the most loyal, fun dogs, and he showed me how loving dogs can be. Since Beau, my family has always had a dog in the house, mostly hounds. Right now, they have a very lovable beagle named Ava, and a German Shorthair Pointer named Heidi. I relocated to Baltimore in 2014 and am an ESOL teacher in Highlandtown. I have a small fenced in yard for dogs to play and the area is very walkable. Please contact me if you are in need of a sitter in the Remington area. Why I love dog sitting: I grew up around dogs, so they've always been a part of my life. In second grade, I even responded to a "what do you want to be when you grow up" prompt stating I wanted to be a dog. I really believe having dogs around helps with health and happiness. About my yard: The row home has a back and side yard completely fenced off. My experience administering medication: I would be comfortable giving a dog pills, as long as there are proper instructions provided and any pro tips the owner can give.
Reviews
Great communication! I know my pup was in good hands
Sara was an excellent host for Maple. She kept us up-to-date and sent us photos. I highly recommend her!
Sara was great. I knew that Chrissy was in good hands. She kept us up-to-date and provided photos. We will definitely inquire again the next time we need a sitter.
Sara watched my pup for a weekend and was a fantastic dog sitter. She was professional and quick to answer my messages/requests. I’d highly recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment
During the school year on weekdays, I am home in the evenings and can provide walks, feeding and playtime. I can also do a quick walk in the mornings before school. On weekends, I have more free time to hang out with your pup and make sure they feel comfortable while you are gone! My dog, Chewy, stays home and can keep your dog company while we are out or at work. Chewy loves company!

Information Sara G. would like to know about your pet
There's a special place in my heart for beagles, and any kind of hound dog, but I am open to meeting any type of dog. Before sitting a dog, I would like to know about a dog's routine, temperament and favorite food or treat. And if there are any specific rules the dog is expected to follow in the home, like being on furniture, barking, etc.
A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks: I live on Lorraine Ave, near the Ottobar in Remington. The area is very walkable and there is a small park on 27th street we can go to. I also often go to Wyman Park Dell to hang out with the other dogs there. Your dog's sleeping arrangement: As long as the dog is allowed, I don't mind having dogs sleep in my bed. Otherwise, I would expect the owner to provide me with a dog bed or crate, which could be kept in my room. Time I'll spend with your dog: I would be able to take a dog for a quick 15-20 minute walk before work, and of course, for a longer walk in the evening. I will be able to spend the rest of the evening after work with a dog. On weekends, I maybe will go out for a couple of hours with friends or to run errands, but a dog on weekends won't have to spend more than 3-4 hours alone. Chewy and I love visiting Wyman Park Dell in the afternoons after work to play with the other dogs, and your dog can join us there too!
