Home Full-Time, Loves Dogs & Cats!!

Pet care experience

I've grown up with multiple pets such as dogs, cats, guinea pigs, ferrets, hamsters, turtle, & fish. I have volunteered for two years at the ARL walking & feeding dogs of all sizes & breeds, as well as, caring for many cats and rabbits. I've, also fostered cat/kittens for 2 years while in college and have several family members and friends with dogs of all sizes so we are well versed for a good belly/chest rub or ear scratch. Currently, we have a polydactyl cat named Tonika and a cavachon dog named Lady who are super sweet and friendly to everyone. If there's anything else needed, I have also done help with putting trash out, bringing in the mail/packages, watering the plants or any other small side jobs that you may need if go away for a few days or weeks.

Sara is an amazing dog sitter and was a complete joy to work with. She was flexible in scheduling and prompt to all appointments. Our dog loved her. Sara is very trustworthy and would recommended to anyone who is scheduling for the first time.

Sara has been such a blessing to our family! Not only is she great with cats, she was a great communicator while we are gone and made leaving our cat- baby so much easier! She sends pictures at every visit, and is very detail-oriented. We felt very comfortable having Sara in our home and will definitely be using her again! Highly-recommend.
