Pet care experience

Loving, Responsible Pet Care You Ca

With over 10 years of pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for a wide range of animals—from playful puppies and independent cats to reptiles and rodents. I’ve personally owned and raised more than five dogs throughout my life, and I understand that every pet has its own personality, quirks, and needs. I’m especially comfortable handling dogs with challenging or shy temperaments, and I always prioritize patience, safety, and trust. Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a mellow senior cat, your pet will get attentive, compassionate care while you’re away!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a pet-friendly neighborhood with a nearby dog park and greenway, perfect for walks and outdoor fun. My home has a fully fenced backyard, and I have an older, friendly dog who enjoys playing with others. I’m happy to crate dogs if preferred and provide a safe, loving environment for your pet.

Sara was absolutely wonderful taking care of our pets. I came home to very happy and well taken care of animals. It was nice to go on vacation and not have any worries on whether the animals were ok or not. I highly recommend Sara to anyone, she is a very caring and professional person

Sara S did an amazing job watching my hound pup and my bearded dragon. She took great care of my dog, Kai, which is saying a lot because she’s quite a handful. Sara took her on off leash walks and on leash walks, as requested. And made sure she got her daily pills. She took great care of my bearded dragon making sure the cage stayed extra clean, fed her loves roaches and crickets and gave her lots of out of cage time. I’d trust I’d recommend Sara to anyone. She’s care about each animal and is more than trustworthy!

Sara Savino is one of the most responsible, diligent, and amicable people I have ever met. Beyond her innate compassion for people and animals, she is incredibly accountable, trustworthy, and capable. She has done an wonderful job of caring for her own pets (dogs, bearded dragon, hedgehog), but has consistently shown that she can care for others' pets with the same affection and attention. I would trust her with my own pet in a heartbeat and would have a sound mind knowing that they were in good hands.

Sara is truly one of the only people I trust with my two dogs—and as a bit of a helicopter dog-mom, that says a lot! She is calm, responsible, trustworthy, and always leaves things clean and cared for. I’ve relied on her multiple times, and she has consistently gone above and beyond to make sure my pups are safe, happy, and well-loved. She has a natural way with animals and brings a lot of experience and genuine care to every interaction. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, you’ll be in excellent hands with Sara!
