Information Sarah B. would like to know about your pet

What commands do your pets know, and any behaviors I should be aware about. For example, when you walk your dog, are they leash friendly or not? Do they like to pull when they see little animals etc.

A typical day

When I watch dogs, you’re guaranteed time in the yard and at least one walk a day sometimes even two or three cause I like to hit my 10 K step goal. I also play with them inside with some toys. For cats, they’re gonna get lots of love and playtime.

Loving Care for Dogs & Cats

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Sarah! I grew up surrounded by both dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. In 2009, I brought home my own pup, who was my best companion for 14 wonderful years until she passed in 2023. Through her life, I gained hands-on experience caring for every stage, from energetic puppyhood to the slower pace and special needs of senior care. Over the years, I’ve cared for big dogs with boundless energy, small dogs with big personalities, and everything in between. I know that every dog is unique, and I pride myself on meeting them where they are, whether that means extra playtime, patient walks for older pups, or just offering comfort and snuggles. What sets me apart? - Experience across the full spectrum: puppies, adults, and seniors - Understanding of both small and large breed needs - Grew up with dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable in multi-pet households - A lifetime of love and commitment to animals, not just as a sitter but as a true companion - Compassion, reliability, and patience, your pup will be treated like family - I work from home and have a fenced in yard I know how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away from your dog. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for, so you can have peace of mind while you’re apart.
