Loving on doggies is my therapy!

Pet care experience

I am passionate about education and research. My full time position allows me to work from home and I am hoping to create extra income through an avenue that allows me to enjoy my time ‘working’! I have two fluff butts of my own and have also worked with disabled pets as well. My darling, beautiful mini Dachsie crossed the rainbow bridge June 16, 2023. She almost made it to 16 and was a survivor of IVDD. She required special needs and medications daily. Now we have a black lab mix (9M) and a chocolate lab pup (almost 1M). They fill our home with love and are my two kiddos' best friends. I have had dogs in my life since I was very small and can’t imagine life without them! I will care for yours as they were mine. “Everyone thinks they have the best dog and none of them are wrong.” - Unknown Hope to meet your pet someday!

Sara was so wonderful with our dogs! She went above and beyond to take care of them and make sure they were safe. There were great updates and communication. Will definitely rebook and recommend.

Sara is a lover of all animals. She has two doggies of her own who are so loved and spoiled. Sara is a wonderful pet sitter because she is loving, responsible, and takes great care of any animal she is caring for. My husband and I have two doggies that we don't trust with just anyone and we trust her completely.

Sara is the kindest, and most compassionate person I have ever met. She loves her fur babies like her own children! She has had animals in her life since she was a young girl and gives every puppy, cow, turtle, or cat she meets unconditional love and attention. She is a loving and responsible dog owner herself, who goes above and beyond to make sure they are safe, happy and healthy. You will be so happy you let Sara take care of your furry loved ones!

Sara is the epitome of a dog lover and has been for as long as I’ve known her....which has been over 25 years. She is nothing but loving to animals and genuinely enjoys canine companionship! She would be an excellent choice to spend time with your pups!

Safety, trust & environment

I have had all types of dogs - tame without a leash and would never leave your side to an anxious leash puller. However, even if your companion is calm without a least, I would feel most comfortable having a leash while on walks and if the yard is not fenced in for potty breaks. If you do have a fenced in yard, then I stay nearby to have an eye on him/her until business has been taken care of.

Information Sara S. would like to know about your pet

Daily routines are best to know - usual wake up times, potty breaks, medications, food times, etc. Being able to keep a routine for your companion is the best way to make sure they are happy and content while you are away.

A typical day

Walks are the biggest form of interaction I do. However, I also have played fetch with younger ones that need more energetic output. For the senior doggies who aren't as interested in games, I sit down in a chair near their doggy bed/preferred spot and we watch TV together. This is also good for a companion who is by themselves even if they are energetic.
