Dogs Are My People

Pet care experience

I have been a caretaker for animals since growing up on a farm. Animals have always been a part of my chosen family, and there really isn't anyone I'd rather spend most of my time with. We laugh. We cry. We have heated debates about exactly what time one (little spotted dog) should eat. We snuggle....and basically solve the world's problems over frozen peanut butter Kongs. I have cared for senior animals and understand the spectrum of needs associated with various breeds and ages. I work from home, and my day is usually a good mix of working and chatting/playing with my rescue spaniel, Captain. He loves play dates, and I love how utterly exhausted he is after. :). We'd love to have company for fetch/lounging/Nylabones and snuggles and/or I come to your house for the same.

Sara was a great housesitter! She took great care of my pups and was an excellent communicator! Highly recommended :)

Sara was wonderful! We will definitely use her again with our dogs. She treats them as if they are her own.

She is so patient with our dogs, is very friendly and usually available last minute when we need her because she’s very flexible! Our dogs love her and her dog :)

My dogs loved her! I’m pretty sure they didn’t love her sidekick. We came home to a house wreaking of urine where our two female dogs marked each location on our living room rug where her male pooch slept/sat/played/peed - we’re not entirely sure which of these activities they felt needed marking. Either way, we think Sara and Captain are fabulous. Our dogs just aren’t socialized enough to be okay with sharing the attention!

Safety, trust & environment

I treat everyone's furry family members like my own. I'm happy to follow whatever protocol is preferable or necessary for your pet while they are in my home or I'm caring for them in yours. When first meeting a fur friend, I typically earn trust pretty quickly. My demeanor is always calm when handling animals as I'm aware they tend to mimic our energy. My spaniel can be anxious so I've become very adept at countering his anxieties in this way and de-escalating stress. Otherwise, I love to play with all the animals and generally just enjoy their company... especially their pure nature and approach to everything humans tend to complicate.:)

I have a good amount of space for fetch and play time. I also may load everyone up and go for a walk in the park. Otherwise, we can play tug o' war with toys inside and or nap/chat. :)

I am rarely not with Captain. He is my ever-present lil buddy whether I'm working or doing chores or just hanging around. He even likes to hop in the car and run errands sometimes if the weather isn't too hot. If I am caring for your pet, I will be with them almost constantly, with the exception of scheduled engagements or errands.
