About Sara T.

Dog skills

28 years of experience

Safety, trust & environment

With a dog and 2 cats of my own, I do not offer boarding services. I have plenty of experience pet sitting in your pet’s natural habitat; home visits are no issue for me, and I think it’s the best way to ensure that your animals are as comfortable as can be while you’re away.

Information Sara T. would like to know about your pet

Let me know a little bit about your furry friend! What kind of setting are they used to? Are they attention or treat motivated? What do they like and dislike? How social are they? All of this helps me know what to expect.

A typical day

I like to use whatever is available to your pets and engage them. Some pets are couch potatoes, so I play dog TV for them on Youtube. Some pets love their toys, so I'll play with them that way. Some pets just wanna go outside! Which I'm more than happy to do. It's all about knowing what your pet likes and matching that energy.

Pet care experience

I've never been without pets in my life. My family and I have always been avid animal lovers, and I've been lucky enough to raise dogs, cats, snakes, and even horses! Growing up, we always had at least two dogs, and oftentimes, a cat as well. Currently, I have two cats and a pit bull of my own. Over the past 8 years, I've worked as a pet sitter for friends, family, coworkers, and neighbors. I'd like to offer my services to those who may not have someone they can lean on when they're busy! I work 3 days a week as a full time EMT and volunteer with a local fire department in my free time. If you have any questions about my services, me, or my availability- please don't hesitate to reach out! :)

Sara is a true animal lover who treats every pet like her own. She’s cared for both my cat and my gecko with so much patience and love. Two very different animals, and she handled both with ease! My pets absolutely adore her.
