Dog lover w/ veterinary experience
Pet care experience
•Worked at a dog kennel for 5 years •Two years of veterinary school before pursuing another career •Years of animal handling and care experience •Comfortable with all breeds and temperaments •Price negotiable based on number of animals, temperament and amount of care needed •Very flexible schedule. My job is swing shifts so I can change to an A,b or C shift schedule depending on the week. We can discuss hours of care upon request. I go to the gym and may need to run random errands. Your pet won’t be unattended for longer than you are comfortable with. We can discuss what your specific needs/wants are prior to pet care. I treat all dogs as if they were my own. I know each person cares for their pets in different ways and I try to accommodate any requests made
Reviews
Sara has watched our dogs a couple times now and she is great! Our dogs are in great hands with her 🥰
Sara was great with our two pups! We will definitely be reaching out to her again ☺️ thanks Sara!
Sara was absolutely the best. Lexie loved her, was well cared for, and lots of pictures. We returned to a house in perfect order, with a Berneese Mountain Dog not an easy thing, and a dog that was happy, content and in good health. I highly recommend Sara. We will totally use her again.
Sara EXCEEDED every single expectation we had for someone to take care of our dog Junior. Junior is 13 years old and is a rescue. He is not comfortable with anyone new in his life. In addition, he requires insulin injections and glaucoma eye drops every day. He has tumors and a very sensitive stomach. He is a lot of work to say the least. But Sara was up for the challenge and she was absolutely amazing with him. She took the time to meet with us twice prior to our vacation to get to know him. Just taking this time with him/us really made us feel comfortable with leaving Junior for 2 weeks. While we were away, she followed our daily plan for homemade meals and medication requirements. Which isn’t easy with him, there are a lot of details! She sent pictures and videos to reassure us that he was ok. Additionally, she noticed that his ear was bothering him and took him to the vet for us to get an additional medication for his ear infection. Her dedication and attention to detail with him far surpassed any place we have boarded him. I have already asked her about future bookings and hope to continue this relationship into the future. The real testimony was from Junior and he missed her very much on his first day without her. She truly has a gift with animals and I am very grateful to have found such a wonderful dog sitter.

Availability
Normally I am very flexible with my work shifts. I can work 7a-3p, 3p-11p, or 11p-7a depending on the week. We can discuss the possibility of switching shift if needed. When sitting, I try to not schedule any other events so I can be with your pet as much as possible.
