I love spending time with pets!

Pet care experience

I have a lot of experience with animals in many capacities. From growing up helping my parents breed and train (a few small litters) puppies, to working at a doggie daycare. I have experience training and rehabilitating dogs for a rescue, as well as come private training work. Our animals would be well-loved and cared for with expertise. Although I have no professional cat experience, I am just as happy to give them lots of love and attention. I have worked on some farms and have a basic knowledge of how to care for chickens, cows, horses, and some other farm animals. I look forward to meeting and working with you and your pets.

Sara has a great rapport with our dogs. She was prompt and professional. I will definitely use her services in the future.

I’ve used Sara many times over the past years and even with special needs dogs (blind beagle and aggressive shepherd) she was absolutely amazing! I can highly recommend her to any dog or kitty owner because her love for animals definitely shines through. I always knew that my animals had a good time because they weren’t completely overjoyed when I came home unlike with some other pet sitters and were thrilled to see her again!

Sara has cared for my dog for many years. She is the best, a for real dog whisperer. Not only is she responsible, but I've learned invaluable ways to communicate with my dog through Sara's expertise. Those suggestions have gone a long way in my relationship with my pet.

I’ve known Sara all her life and her loving caring for dogs warms my heart. She has a gentle Patient way with dogs even with severely abused dogs they trust her. She will have the care of my two dogs for a week soon and because they are old we no longer want them in the kennel and there’s no one else we would trust to give them the love and care they need. We also know that she’ll care for home as well.
