South End Pug Mom & Animal Lover!

Pet care experience

PLEASE NOTE: I recently welcomed a new pug puppy to our home and am not accepting boarding or house sitting requests at this time. However, I am more than happy to accommodate drop-in and walking visits for the time being in the South End area! I have had dogs all my life and can't imagine a world without them! I'm thrilled to be a part of the Rover community, and I can't wait to extend my care and companionship to your furry friends. As a devoted pet owner myself, I understand the unique needs and joys that come with caring for senior dogs. My 15-year-old pug, Roxy, recently crossed over the rainbow bridge. She was my loyal companion, and our journey together has inspired me to offer specialized care for all dogs, especially seniors. We would love to welcome your dog into our home! I specialize in providing a comfortable and loving environment for younger dogs/puppies who want to play and older dogs who might appreciate a more relaxed pace, extra TLC, and perhaps a cozy spot to nap. Whether it's gentle walks, soothing belly rubs, or just some quiet time together, I'm committed to ensuring your senior dog feels right at home. My experience as a pet owner has taught me the importance of patience, understanding, and tailored care for dogs in their golden years. I'm here to provide a safe and welcoming haven for them. Unfortunately my husband is allergic to cats but I am happy to do drop in visits or in-home care/house sitting for kitties. I used to have two cats: Spike who passed at age 11, and Lucy who lived to the ripe old age of 19! I also regularly care for my bestie's cat, Rishi, and he became my bestie after I introduced him to the joys of catnip lol! I'm excited about the opportunity to connect with fellow pet enthusiasts and create positive experiences for our four-legged friends. Let's make every stay a tail-wagging, purr-inducing, comfortable, and joyful one! Looking forward to meeting you and your wonderful dogs.

Sara was so attentive and caring for our kitty! We definitely trust Sara to look after our cat while we're away, and would book her again in the future. Thanks so much, again!

Sara took great care of our pup, even through his anxiety. Good exercise and care of the house while we were gone.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a townhouse and don't have a fenced in yard, but my community has plenty of green spaces for potty breaks and light walking, and can take your pup for longer strolls if needed in South End. I also have a stroller for smaller pups who want some extra time outside on nice days. I have several repeat clients, some who I have never met in person. I understand it can be unsettling to leave your fur-child in the care of a complete stranger! When doing drop in/walking visits, I will respect your home, your privacy, and your pet(s).

Information Sara S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your fur baby has any special needs or dietary restrictions. It would also be helpful to know a little bit about their personality and what a typical day for them looks like.

A typical day

Depending on your dog's unique needs, I'm happy to meet them where they're at regarding activity level. Whether it be "walkies" along the rail trail, sitting at a park soaking up the sun, or snuggling on the couch, rest assured your baby will be well cared for.
