I love dogs, love to see them happy

Pet care experience

I have taken care of small dogs up to 18 lbs, one dog at a time. I am retired now and can give your fur baby my full attention. I am very responsible and dependable. We have a huge area of green grass right outside my place where your fur baby can run, play, roll and enjoy their time. Also, I have a small patio where they can sun bath if they want to and a pool if they like to swim. Also, I can take your fur baby on a hike close by at Quicksilver park in Almaden if he/she is up to it. When your fur baby is with me, I will send you daily photos and videos and keep you posted on his/her daily activities. With me, your fur baby will eat right after you leave him/her with me. Your fur baby will sleep with me on my bed. I make sure to cover him/her all night. I usually do up to one week at a time, however, if you need more than a week, I might be able to accommodate you. 1) I prefer to sit for small dogs only up to 18 lbs that don't shed a lot. 2) I take only house trained dogs. Please no dogs that pee on rugs and furniture or tear up things inside the house. 3) I don't do any type of injections. So sorry, it is not in me to push a needle in the flesh. Thank you for understanding! 4) Meet and greet is needed before I can commit to taking your fur baby. 5) If you want to stop by just to check me out and currently you don't have something planned , it is fine with me as long as I know upfront. With your fur baby, I play tug of war, run/walk on the grass every 2 hours, fetch the ball, brush his/her fur, scratch belly, and a lot of hugs and love . Your fur baby will have the time of his/her life with me, because I love dogs!!!! I have a small well fenced Patio and a huge grass area right outside my gate that all dogs love to sniff and pee on. I have a few neighbors who have small dogs that would love to play on the grass with yours if he/she up to it. There is always a small dog outside on the grass waiting for a friend to play with. My place is very safe for dogs. No previous experience of dogs escaping.

We could tell Luna felt safe and comfortable with her and she had many activities that day, including approved snacks and a visit to local parks. She was attentive and adjusted to Luna's needs, whether it be a distraction when pup was missing mom, or a cuddle spot to rest in when she was tired. We feel very confident that Sara is an experienced and caring dog sitter and would recommend her services in the future.

Sara took care of Teddy like a grandchild. I could tell she really bonded with him and loves him. She was good about getting him out for walks -- far more than our family ever has. And she even got him to socialize with other dogs. Sara clearly cares deeply for the pets that are in her care. During our week away, she was also good and consistent about keeping us posted on his daily routine, how he was doing, and sent lots of pictures. We would be honored to have her take care of our senior dog, Teddy, again.

We play on the huge grass area right outside my patio with the neighbors little dogs. Every day, I clean the crust around their eyes. We talk, listen to each others and we bond. I LOVE DOGS!!!!!!!!

I am retired now and can give your fur babies my full attention. I will give them a bath, take them on long walks, or in the stroller if they can't walk. I want them to have an enjoyable experience with me. Also, I will cook for them, that is only if you want them to enjoy a healthy home cooked meal, no salt or spices. Just boiled chicken with potatoes and carrots.
