Information Sara P. would like to know about your pet

Our senior dog took medication twice daily for years. Please let me know if any special care is required before booking. I am comfortable with any dog as long as they are comfortable with children.

A typical day

We love going on walks, playing fetch, working on commands, along with chill time and lots of cuddles. We have a pond behind our house with a lot of space for play and walks (on leash of course).

Animal Lover & Advocate

Pet care experience

I fell in love with dogs at 6 years old when we adopted a Cocker Spaniel, Heidi. After graduating from KU I was finally able to adopt my own, Lola. Since our German Shepherd Kylee passed in 2020 we have especially enjoyed caring for fur babies in our home. My sons are 8 and 10 and are, of course, also huge animal lovers. I’d love to adopt again, but right now we are soaking up all the cuddles from new and returning furry friends.

Sara was absolutely amazing! This was my first time ever boarding my little Coco, and I was so nervous about leaving her for the first time. Sara immediately eased my mind and made me feel completely comfortable. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, responded quickly, and took such great care of my girl. I’m so thankful I found someone I trust and now have a special place where I can send Coco whenever we travel. I would recommend Sara to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their pets like their own. 🫶🏻🐾

Sara is great and took great care of our dog. She sent several photos while he was there which we appreciated. Her dogs are the best too.
