Safety, trust & environment

As a pet parent myself, I understand the importance of a good pet sitter. At a client's home, I am conscientious of their rules and expectations for pet care. I build a foundation of trust (both with pet parents and their animals) to ensure the best experience possible!

Information Sara J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets have any special needs and/or if they need to take medication. Let me know what I can do to make you and your pets comfortable with me!

A typical day

I like providing opportunities for enrichment, including playing with toys, smelling the outdoors, doing food puzzles, and practicing tricks/commands. Fun fact: I trained one of my cats to sit on command!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of pets of every kind since I was a child! I grew up with cats and have taken care of dogs for family and friends. I also have two cats of my own, Lucy and Flora. I provide mealtime, playtime, and affection to all animals as if they were my own. I love taking dogs on walks and providing enrichment and exercise to all pets!

Sara did a great job spending an hour a day with our cat, Lemon for the week we were away. We could tell Lemon would be in good hands when I first let hold her and saw how both of them responded. I highly recommend Sara.

Sara was so great with our pup. We truly appreciate the time she spent with him making sure he ate and playing with him after his walk. She was great about giving him medicine and was always very responsive. We will definitely use her anytime we need someone to watch him!
