Pet Photographer & Cat Mom!
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm Sarah. I may or may not be that girl who plays peek-a-boo with unattended pups in parked cars while their humans grab groceries... My two Loves in this world are Animals & Photography, so I put them together and started my own photography business, specializing in pet portraits, or 'Pawtography,' as I like to call it. Not only will I give your fur kids endless lovin's and "good boys/girls", but I can also provide you with some stunning snapshots that capture their unique personality and best/goofiest features! As a business owner, my days are extremely flexible, which allows me to work around your schedule, and is great for those short-notice trips or sudden change of plans! My top goal is to provide pet parents with peace of mind while they are away, and make their absence (and my presence) as stress-free as possible for both my clients and their fur-kids. I do this by keeping open communication, giving updates, asking questions, and taking lots of photos! I also ensure that I respect each pup/cat's boundaries and let them guide our level of interaction. I really look forward to meeting you and your pup/kitter, and I promise to always keep them safe and happy!
Reviews
This was our second time booking Sarah to watch our pups in our home. She is a delight to work with. She sent many pictures and updates on how things were going. Knowing she's with the pups makes leaving them a little easier.
Sarah went above and beyond to watch our dogs during our wedding reception. She was amazing, and helped out beyond what we even asked for. Our dogs loved her and so did we!
Sarah gave our pup Rory a midday visit and we got a full report with plenty of pictures - and she even brought our empty trash can in from the curb! A long day at work made much easier! Thanks Sarah!
Sarah was amazing with our dogs. One of our pups is VERY shy and Sarah was so patient with him, by the end of the week he was snuggling with her. She sent daily updates with pictures. Communication was awesome. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Skills
Information Sarah A. would like to know about your pet
I would really like to know what each pup/cat's likes/dislikes/fears/and fav activities are before we hangout together. This is something that I also ask when doing a photography session, because sometimes it can be hard to capture a pet's authentic self when you are both strangers to each other.
A typical day
I love walking around older neighborhoods with lots of tall trees, and checking out the ever-changing beauty at Gray's Lake and Water Works Park. I never get tired of playing Frisbee/fetch, but I also love to sit in the park and read, which might be perfect for some senior pups who just need some fresh air!
