Genuine Tender Loving Care

We’ve had 8 dogs, our house is empty without a furry family member. I'm a RN and have a true yearning to give tender, loving care whether I’m at work or home. Our last dog Marco was a true rescue dog. I found him matted and covered in oil. His toenails were curled up into his skin. After searching for his owner on social media, Humane society and at veterinary clinics. his owner was no where to be found. He spent 8 long days in the GV dog pound. Finally I was able to take him home, clean him, and call him mine. He never left my side. I miss his companionship so much. Our dog Duke had diabetes. I tested Dukes sugar daily, gave him shots, and made his meals according to his blood sugar results. You’ll feel at ease and totally comfortable having your family member stay with me. I promise, I’ll treat your pet like one of my very own.

Sara and her husband were fabulous!! My dog has a lot of anxieties, and Sara made sure we had a couple of meet and greets before leaving him. She has a calming manner that made my dog feel calm and secure. I came home to a happy, and well cared for dog. Thank you!!! She sent pictures and kept us updated.

Sara was kind enough to agree to watch my dog, Lucy, with just a 5 day notice. She even invited me to stop over to allow Lucy to get familiar with her and her space. She definitely has a love for animals and that was shown at drop off and pick up. I felt confident that Lucy would feel at home and be well taken care of with Sara. Thank you again!!

Sara took great care of Teddy! This was his second stay at her home. She was very understanding about his extra needs as a senior dog, like giving medication and extra bathroom breaks, etc. We would totally recommend her!

Sara was great! She was an excellent communicator and asked all the right questions about how to best take care of our furry friend. She took and sent pictures. We had a sense that she really enjoyed spending time with our dog which helped us enjoy our time away even more. Thanks Sara!

Schedule

I'm currently working 2 days a week. If I have your pet here, I can usually work from home the second day. So your pet won’t be alone all day. I can walk your dog every day. We're usually home at night. I'm sorry, I can't take guests that need a walk first thing in the morning to go potty. We have a 40 foot tie out attached to the front door for morning potty needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I’ll give my guest undivided attention. There is no need to share my lap. I’ll only have 1 guest at a time. My husband calls me the dog whisperer because i can have meaningful talks with any dog that comes my way.

A typical day

I wake up about 7:30, need coffee and at 8:30 I work out. Clean up the house or work at home doing reports etc. Usually on Mondays and Thursday’s I go to work. But that can vary. I am a nurse at a near by group home. I get home approximately 4:30pm. Usually I work 10:30-4:00. If I have your pet here, I wouldn’t go out after work. Otherwise sometimes we go out for dinner. Grateful for Teddie, Brandy, Willie, Willie II, Jack, Duke, Ruby and Marco. They enhanced our lives beyond words. ❤️

Has your pet had all his shots? Any allergies? Veterinarians name and number Is your pet chipped. How will they let me know they have to go potty? Do they need a walk to go potty? Or go out on a leash? What are their sleeping habits? I can take gentle loving care of elderly dogs. With the respect they so deserve.
