Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I care for your pets in their own home, where they feel secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. I follow your routines closely—whether it's mealtime, walks, or meds—and always treat your home with the utmost respect and care. You can count on me to keep things calm, clean, and pawsitively peaceful while you're away.

House Sitting • Jun 16, 2026

We were honestly pretty nervous about using a dog sitter for the first time, especially since our house was a bit of a disaster before our weekend trip to Universal Studios. From the moment we met her, though, she made us feel completely comfortable and never made us feel judged or awkward about anything. She was absolutely amazing with our dogs — patient, caring, attentive, and clearly someone who truly loves animals. We got updates while we were away, and it was obvious our dogs were happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. By the end of the weekend, they absolutely adored her! It made such a huge difference being able to enjoy our trip knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We’re so grateful for the care she gave them and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!

Sara is outstanding — dependable, professional, and thoughtful. As a busy professional who travels frequently, I rely on her to care for my home, water my plants, take out the trash cans on trash day, and feed the fish while I’m away. She follows instructions precisely, keeps everything tidy, and sends timely updates so I can focus on work without worry. Highly recommended.

Oh my stars — Sara is a gem! She cares for my two finicky cats, Whiskers and Muffin, and my little terrier, Buttons, as if they were her own. Always on time, follows meds and routines perfectly, leaves the house tidy, and sends sweet updates and photos that ease my mind. Completely trustworthy with my keys, home, and pets — I’d hire her a hundred times over.
