Pet care experience

Here for all the silliest lil' guys

**December 2025: I am only accepting bookings in or around the Foothills (east of Juan Tabo) **January 2026: I am only accepting bookings in or around Nob Hill, University, Downtown I’m basically fluent in cat and I speak dog pretty well too. I’ve fostered around 30 kittens over the years, including a few tiny fighters I helped nurse back to healthy, happy lives, and I regularly care for senior cats who enjoy naps and gentle company. I also have plenty of experience with dogs, from mellow cuddlers to high-energy walkers, and I love matching their pace and personality. I’m confident giving pills, liquid meds, and subcutaneous shots, and I always make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and perfectly spoiled.

Safety, trust & environment

For pets in your home, I make sure I'm not disrupting their routine too much. Don't be surprised if I ask lots of questions! You can be sure that I'll respect your space and privacy, everything will be exactly as you left it (minus a few treats, of course). For kitties that come to stay with me, I have a small bedroom for them to feel safe and secure, but big enough for everything they need. If especially confident cats want to explore, they can have the run of the rest of the house! And of course, you can always expect as many pictures of your lil' guys as you can handle!

Sara was excellent! Frequent communication and pictures while we were gone. She also left our house super clean when we got back, which was very appreciated :)

Sara was great with our anxious cat! She did a lot to make him feel comfortable, he has a problem with strangers but took treats from her and even ate while she was in the house - a big deal for him!

Schedule

I do self-paced online studies and flexible gig work, so my schedule is super adaptable. That means I can easily fit walks, playtime, or overnight stays around your pet’s routine instead of the other way around. I care for both cats and dogs and I love having pet care as part of my week. It keeps me active, grounded, and surrounded by the best company while I’m working toward my next big step.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

I'll need to know if your pet takes any regular medications, how they usually react to their parents being away, how they feel about new people, their activity level, and any little quirks!
