Pet care experience

Caring for your furbabies as my own

As a lifelong pet owner- dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, and hermit crabs- I have a wealth of personal experience. I am pet CPR/First Aid certified and previously worked at an emergency animal hospital where I learned to quickly assess the need for emergency care. Currently, I have a senior rescue dog and a 1 year old dog that I have raised and trained from 10 weeks old. I also have a senior kitty and a freshwater fish tank. Your home and pets will be taken care of with thorough and loving care, as I am a homeowner myself and a mom and I empathize with how it feels to leave your home and precious babies!

Safety, trust & environment

I am able to do drop in visits for playtime, walking, feeding, or snuggling! I will make sure any pet messes are clean, doors locked, and any other specific needs you have such as bringing in packages off the porch are handled. My clients praise my attention to detail and thorough reports.

I have an incredibly shy cat and an incredible bold kitty and they were both very well cared for by Sara. She sent me lots of pictures and updates and I am very appreciative.

Sara W is an outstanding pet sitter who truly went above and beyond! She showed genuine care and concern for my dogs from start to finish, thoughtfully assessing their moods, personalities, and needs each day. She spent time playing with them, petting them, and genuinely loving on them as if they were her own. Her communication was exceptional. I received frequent photos, videos, and detailed updates, which gave me so much peace of mind and were truly appreciated. When one of my dogs unexpectedly needed emergency care, Sara acted quickly and responsibly, rushing them to the ER vet and keeping me fully informed while communicating clearly with both me and the veterinary team. Her calm, compassionate handling of the situation meant everything to me. I would absolutely use Sara again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and caring pet sitter.

Sara did great with our dogs! She was patient and called me with her concerns. Our girls are very skittish with new people and she gave them space to get used to her. She is very appreciated!

Our dog loves Sara and she took great care of our pup, and sent lots of cute pics. Will definitely rebook next time we go out of town.

Schedule

I offer drop ins and walks at all hours of the day! I generally complete morning drop ins from 7-10am, mid-day breaks/dog walks 11am-3pm, and evening visits 7-10pm. After earning my masters degree in occupational therapy and working as a therapist for years, I have a deep appreciation for how special our pets are and how critical it is to have a responsible, trustworthy sitter in your home. Your fur baby will be given lots of attention, playtime, and love! I’m meticulously detail-oriented, thorough, and responsible with your home’s security and safety. I provide very detailed visit summaries and at least 2 photos per visit unless otherwise requested. I want you to feel updated and reassured about your pet’s well-being under my care.
