SoMa Puppy Mom

Pet care experience

I’m currently writing my dissertation, which gets really boring; so, me and my very sociable pup enjoy long walks along the Embarcadero and and playing ball at the dog park. He is always looking for new friends to play ball and chase with. For the past year and a half, I have been raising my dachshund/mini-golden/sheltie mut, Elon. Prior to Elon, I helped raise and care for two shelties and a dachshund/beagle/chihuahua mut, each with a unique personality and activity level. My background is in science. I have a BA in biochemistry, and I’m currently finishing my PhD in chemistry. Between my education and experience with dogs, you can be assured that your dog is in good hands. While I finish writing my dissertation and line up a job, I will be at home full-time, and my schedule will be fairly flexible.

Sara watched our dog Buddy for the weekend and did a phenomenal job. Her place was perfect for dog sitting and Buddy got along with her dog Elon right away. She took Buddy out for walks and even took an amazing photo with the Bay Bridge. Anyone that needs a dog sitter, I’d highly recommend Sara!

Information Sara O. would like to know about your pet

How big is your dog? I am a small person (~100lbs), so I just need to make sure the dog isn’t too strong/heavy for me to safely take him or her for a walk. Dogs less than 40lbs should be fine. Very calm dogs over 40lbs should be fine too! Is your dog friendly with other dogs? I have a playful pup who loves to make new friends. He is super friendly and enjoys the company of both high energy dogs and lazy, sleepy dogs and everything in between.

A typical day

We will mostly walk around the Embarcadero, but if it is a weekend and it is okay with you, we will go for a hike somewhere! Also, we will go play at the dog park. At home, I have a dog training puzzle to redirect high energy.
