I live in a cozy two-story home with plenty of space for pets to relax and explore. There's a temporary fenced area for outdoor time and lots of room for walks in a quiet neighborhood. It's a calm, pet-friendly space where your dog can feel right at home.

Information Sara W. would like to know about your pet

I am skilled in all aspects of animal care from injections to cuddle time, just let me know beforehand so i can provide the best care!

A typical day

On a typical day, I take my pets for walks around the neighborhood and often head to the Thomas Farm Preserve in Watkinsville for extra exercise and fresh air. It's a great way to burn off energy and explore new smells. At home, I keep them mentally stimulated with enrichment toys and games to keep things fun and engaging.

Pet care experience

I'm a veterinary student at UGA with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and livestock. I've worked in clinics and shelters. I absolutely love connecting with animals. I'm confident handling all temperaments and know how to recognize signs of illness or stress. Whether it's a senior dog or a high-energy pup, l'll treat your pet like family.

Sara did an amazing job taking care of Hazel! She was reliable, attentive, and made sure Hazel got plenty of walks, playtime, and affection. I really appreciated the updates she shared, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. When I came home, Hazel was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Sara to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and I’ll definitely ask her to watch Hazel again in the future.

Sara goes above and beyond each visit. Our dog fell victim to an illness and Sara was the first to identify. She prompted us immediately which allowed us to take action and take our pup in to the vet. Sara continued to provide care for our sick pup and clean up multiple accidents for us and provide us updates. Sara is someone that you can trust to ensure your dog or cat is provided with the best care.

Very professional and friendly! Took great interest in the care of our cat & chickens and even watered my deck plants for me! Sent daily pics and updates. Having Sara come check on things allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying about things at home. Highly recommend her and will use her again!

My pup had a great time and came home a happy boy! I so greatly appreciated all the photos of him during his stay to let me know he was doing well! Thank you so much for your excellent care!
