Experienced Pet Care Provider

Pet care experience

With over 12 years of experience caring for animals—both my own and others, including in the veterinary field—I provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care. Each visit includes detailed updates, photos, and any special requests you may have. I treat every pet with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. With me, your pets will be safe, happy, and well-cared for! IMPORTANT INFORMATION: REOCCURRING SERVICE Due to my EMS job, I can be deployed with little notice for a minimum of 14 days. Because of this, I’m not able to commit to being the sole recurring sitter. However, since deployments are not frequent, I often have several weeks of availability at a time. I’d love to be considered for bookings when I’m in town. I also recommend having a backup sitter in case I do get deployed unexpectedly.

Sara is amazing! Every time she watches my dogs, I know they’re in great hands. She always sends plenty of pictures and keeps me updated, which gives me so much peace of mind. She makes sure they get their daily walks and gives them lots of love and attention. You can tell she really knows dogs and genuinely cares. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and knowledgeable sitter!

I’m so grateful I found Sara! As a photographer new to Rover, I had a last-minute photo session come up a few hours away and needed someone to walk my two dogs that same day, which meant I didn’t have time for a proper meet and greet, but Sara stepped in without hesitation and completely delivered. She walked my dogs twice that day, kept me updated after each visit, and made sure I knew how everything went—which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Her communication is fast, clear, and professional. If you ever find yourself in a pinch and need someone reliable on short notice, I highly recommend Sara. She’s fantastic

Information Sara L. would like to know about your pet

Lincoln is a high-energy dog, but his bursts of energy come in short spurts. He’s friendly with other animals, kids, and everyone he meets. He loves shaking his toys. Always curious, he watches my every move and follows me wherever I go. I also try to take him with me whenever possible to keep him happy and engaged.

A typical day

Activities include playing with the hose if your dog enjoys water, plus early morning and later evening walks during summertime to keep their pads safe. We also have a dog park just around the corner, but if you prefer they don’t go, our backyard is a great spot for playtime. I also love playing hide-and-seek using their toys—my dog Lincoln LOVES this game! It’s a fantastic mental workout and usually ends with a good nap. I have plenty of mental stimulation toys that your pet is welcome to enjoy too!
