Drop-Ins/Walking/House Sitting - Please let me know what you're looking for during the visit at your home! We can go on a nice long walk or snuggle up on the couch and/or play inside. :) Boardings/Day Care - I currently live in a 3 bedroom 1800 sq ft condo on the 3rd floor. We don't have an elevator, so please make sure your pet is able to do stairs or is small enough that I can carry them (and comfortable with me picking up and carrying too!) I don't have any children and I don't have any pets myself. I have an unfenced yard and there are also several unfenced grassy areas near by me that your pets would love to explore and sniff around (with me, on leash of course). I also love to go to India Point Park during the weekends (if the weather allows it) where they have a beautiful trail by the water and would love to bring your pets there too if that's something you'd be interested in! I will provide care for multiple pets from the same owner, but I do not book multiple pets from different owners.

Information Sarah A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you have any special needs that I can accommodate for! I would love to make sure their time with me is as enjoyable as possible. Things like allergies, reactions to other dogs or cats or people, personal quirks, and other things like this would be really helpful to know!

A typical day

I have experience taking care of a range of high energy to low energy pets. Let me know what you need and what your typical exercise routine is with your animals!

I have been doing pet sitting and fostering for several years, and I also grew up caring for both animals in my own household and family & friends' pets. Whether it's a friend to cuddle up with on the couch, play tug of war, or go on walks, I'm here to cater to your pets' usual routine and make sure that they feel loved while you're away!

Sarah did an amazing job taking care of our dogs when we were traveling and working this past week. She gave consistent updates with pictures and we came home to happy dogs.

Sarah recently stayed with our 13 year old pup for the first time, and it was a great experience. She was very communicative, sent photos, and put my anxiety at ease that our gal was happy and well taken care of. I hope Sarah is able to stay with her again in the future!

Sarah was absolutely wonderful with Macie! She was caring, dependable, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Macie was happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of love and attention. It’s such a comfort knowing we have someone we can trust. We highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you, Sarah—we truly appreciate everything you did for Macie!

We had not been away for several years so we very very hesitant to have someone stay in our home to take care of the dogs, especially for 2 weeks. However, once we met Sarah, we knew our home and dogs were in great hands. Sarah took great care of our dogs. She even won over our grumpy old man, Scout. We had been having trouble with Scout eating each meal, but he ate every meal while we were gone. For us, she is the Mary Poppins for dogs. She sent updates and pictures everyday. Our dogs were very happy and our house was spotless when we returned. The next time we travel, we will definitely hire Sarah again.
