Cats, Dogs, Bunnies, Rats, & more!

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Sara, I'm your local seamstress part time pet service provider. I am not limited to Cats and Dogs, I also love Rats, Bunnies, and all of the small animals. I am a key holder for the recurring clients I've had for 6 years. I have experience with administering medication as well. Hanging out with animals always brightens my day so you will be assured that I'll give your pets the extra attention they need to be happy and comfortable.

Sara's been taking our two pups on daily walks for us. She's great with the dogs, great about communicating walk times, and flexible when we need to switch things up. I couldn't recommend her more!

Sara is truely an animal lover. My dog buddy always looks forward to seeing her. She is a reliable and trustworthy person. If i asked her to pet sit for me I know she would be there. Dogs have a good sense about people and dogs love Sara.

Safety, trust & environment

When I arrive I greet the pets gently. For skittish cats I wait for them to come to me. No pressure. I follow a Time and Task schedule provided by each client. I'm intentional about play time and exercise each day. I'm eager to know your pet's personality and tendencies, or any routine actions they need. When I leave for work I locate each animal to make sure they are okay and not stuck or in distress.

Information Sara J. would like to know about your pet

Special feeding schedules, medicine that needs to be administered, vocabulary necessary for training consistency, any quirks about your pet's behavior, and quirks about your home as well. (Sticky front doors, quirky toilets, where essentials are kept for the pets, etc.)

A typical day

I'm known to play with pets longer than most people. Animals that are active tend to be happier and have better brain function due to the stimulation. Admittedly, I do talk to the pets during my stay. I'll never say no to a snuggle either!
