I currently work remotely for an East Coast company and my typical day looks like waking up at 5:00am, hiking with my hound mix, Tanner. Then I am in front of the computer from 6:30-12:30, and then my days are free onwards. Typically, Tanner and I will then either go on another hike, a swim or head to a dog park to sniff and play. Tanner loves all dogs, and we’d love to bring companions with us on some of our adventures. Tanner also gets lots of love and walks at home, and is perfectly okay staying home with his dad and cat brother if your pup likes one on one time.

Safety, trust & environment

At my home, I have a fenced in yard, a sweet pup and a big ole sweetie cat. We have a guest room and plenty of space for a crate if privacy and a secure place is important for your pups comfortability. I try to replicate our guests routine as much as I can, without compromising my dogs routine too much. When I watch a pup in their own home, whatever their owner tells me to do, I am happy to do.

Information Sara S. would like to know about your pet

Animals are corky! Let me know your babe’s corks and I’ll make sure to let their freak flags fly, or be contained if that’s what’s needed.

A typical day

In the Utah heat, it’s not always safe or easy to get the dogs the fresh air they crave. So, I’ve gotten pretty creative with our games, treat scavenger hunts, and if swimming is allowed, lots of time in the water.

Pet care experience

The summer between 3rd and 4th grade I knocked on the doors of everyone in the neighborhood asking if I could walk their dogs for $2 a walk. Only 2 houses said yes initially but by the end of the summer I was walking more than half the neighborhood’s dogs. I have always had cats, from recluses to cuddle bugs, I do not discriminate.

Sara helped us with a last-minute request to drop in on our 2 cats (and a gecko!) for several days. She responded immediately and was super communicative throughout our time away. She made me feel at ease that our pets were in good hands, she was happy to help with a couple other things we needed taken care of, and our kitties clearly enjoyed having her visit!

Sara has a natural ability to bond with any animal. They seem drawn to her even when they are known to be aggressive/temperamental. A wonderful person and caregiver for her pets and others.
