Safety, trust & environment

I do not usually watch animals in my own home, other than cats who are not outdoor cats & are experienced & good with other cats, since I have two of my own. I prefer to watch animals in their own home, as it lessens the stress for the animal (and my cats! haha)

Information Sara T. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog has any special needs or if they have any behaviors such as food aggression so I’m aware. I appreciate detailed instructions for feeding & anything else you’d like me to know so that everyone is as comfy as possible!

A typical day

I will do all of the necessary things like making sure your dogs get fed and let outside to potty but I also take time to play with them, cuddle, whatever specific needs your pup or cat has, I’ll do for them. Going on walks, playing ball, tug toys- you name it! I also send regular photo and videos to let you know how they’re doing! I enjoy getting to know their personalities & spending time with my clients sweet babies.

Pet care experience

Loving, Reliable Pet Care – Tailored to Your Pet’s Needs! 🐾 Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for all kinds of pets—playful puppies, curious kittens, gentle seniors, and animals with disabilities or special needs. 🐶🐱💕 I previously worked at an animal shelter, which gave me extensive experience handling pets of all temperaments and situations. I’m extremely comfortable administering medications (oral, topical, and injections if needed) and I always make sure every animal gets the extra love and attention they deserve. I work full-time Monday through Friday 9-5, but when I’m off the clock, I’m available to be at your home as much as you'd like, and I frequently stay overnight to keep pets happy and stress-free in their own space & make sure they’re all taken care of before I leave for work & as soon as I’m off! Best of all, I'm completely free on weekends, so I can dedicate my full attention to your furry family members all weekend long. Whether it’s for a quick check-in or a full weekend of love and care, I’m here to treat your pets like family—with compassion, patience, and a whole lot of tail wags and purrs. ❤️ Let’s chat and make sure your beloved companions get the care they deserve!

I cannot recommend Sara highly enough!! I've now found my go-to sitter! From our very first messages she was extremely communicative and caring, going above and beyond to make sure my pup kept his routine. She spent tons of extra time on our meet-n-greet, going through all our details and was immediately affectionate with my pup (he loved her too). He's a big reactive active dog so I was nervous about finding a person who could handle him, but she was natural, wise, engaged and kind from the start! When I was away she sent tons of pictures, videos, and updates which was so relieving. It was so nice having Sara stay at my house. When I came home my house perfectly kept and my dog was so relaxed and happy. She's the best!

Sara was wonderful with our babies! This is the second time we have had Sara and we are very pleased with how she cared for our three kitties and our large dog. We have two very shy kitties and she let them have their space while making sure their were good. We were happy to see the kitties were not stressed when we got home. Sara was also so good with our large baby dog. Olive got lots of love and cuddles! We plan to use Sara again!
