I love pets

Pet care experience

I love taking care of animals during my free time I have recently babysat, family, and friends pets. My last roommate did have a dog that we both took care of together, and if I could have an animal I would, but I have a high potential moving as I am currently active duty military. I believe I am current on most stuff you would and wouldn’t do with dogs and cats. I have grown up with a lot of cats in my life so I feel I am very knowledgeable or as knowledgeable as I can be.

Sarah is incredibly reliable and one of the most caring people I know. She’s taken care of my dog, Lola, multiple times and always goes above and beyond to make sure she feels loved and safe. I remember being out of town and getting pictures of Lola at the beach with Sarah and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Sarah is attentive, trustworthy, and treats every pet like they’re part of her own family. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate pet caregiver.

I can’t recommend Sarah enough! She’s one of those rare people who just clicks with animals. Whether it’s a shy rescue pup or a high-energy dog that needs extra playtime, she knows exactly how to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. She’s responsible, trustworthy, and treats every pet like her own. I’ve seen firsthand how much care and attention she puts into walks, playtime, and even the little details like keeping water bowls full and giving extra belly rubs. Any pet parent would be lucky to have Sarah looking after their furry family members!

I do have an apartment so my space isn’t as huge, but they would have free room depending on their temperament I am not one to create a dog that doesn’t wanna be created, but I know some puppies can’t hold their pee so I may avoid them in my personal room due to having carpet, but I will always gauge a situation before that as I would want said pet to be as comfortable as possible. And if I need to watch a pet at a client’s home, I would just wanna follow what the client would want I would never wanna put a dog in an uncomfortable situation
