Animal Lover, People Pleaser

Hello! My name is Sarah, and I love all creatures, great and small. I am a highly professional individual dedicated to making sure my animal and human clients are equally satisfied. I have extensive experience in dog walking and pet sitting, with a specialty in rabbits, rats, guinea pigs, and other exotics, in addition to many years of husbandry, training, and maintenance at horse boarding facilities and other farms. In addition to my work with domesticated animals, I also worked in my college's vivarium for three semesters, training capuchin monkeys in basic actions designed to keep them safe, enriched, and calm with vet staff. Personally, I am the proud bunny mom to four free-roam rescue rabbits. In my lifetime, I’ve also owned and loved dogs, horses, rats, gerbils, hamsters, mice, turtles, aquatic frogs, and small lizards; I have cared for cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, parrots, goats, donkeys, and more. As a dog walker and pet sitter, I have cared for terriers to pit bulls; puppies to seniors with special needs. When you book a walk or a sitting session with me, you and your pet are guaranteed the following: -Prompt communication, including verification of time, location, and services -On-time arrival -Energy, care, and activity level catered to your pet's specific needs (either provide me with this information before hand, or I will be able to pick up on this within moments of meeting your pet) -Complete confidence in your pet's safety, even with the largest dog or most exotic reptile -A detailed report of what we did together, how your pet acted, and anything else particularly notable that came up during our time together Please feel free to inquire about anything you see on my profile, and I look forward to meeting you and your pet soon!

Sarah has been an animal lover all her life from gerbils to dwarf hamsters to rats to horses, but her greatest love of all has been, and is, for dogs. She grew up with a total of four family dogs so she has a lot of first hand experience. She gravitates to them wherever she goes. In high school, Sarah volunteered at a shelter just to walk the dogs, especially the ones who had been there for a while and needed extra attention. She's responsible and cautious and derives pure joy from taking care of four-legged friends. I recommend her without hesitation!
