Responsible loving caring passionat

Pet care experience

I have been a dog lover since I can remember but wasn't allowed to have one until I was 12, since then I have never been able to go without a dog. I have participated in dog shows, bred dogs, got a grooming licence and have cared for many dogs throughout my life. I owned my own grooming shop, later worked at a clinic that had boarding for 7 years and loved all the pets that were in my care as my own. I now have a few pets that I sit with while their families are away and they enjoy themselves as I enjoy them. I am a very responsible person who also has some basic veterinary experience including giving injections as well and over 25 years of dealing with dogs. I am dedicated, passionate and formal about what I do.

Sarah was introduced to us by a dog/house sitter that we trusted implicitly. Sarah gained our trust quickly. Sarah is not only reliable, she is clearly a person who's calling is to work with animals. She is compassionate and caring and always puts the needs of the pets first. She has stayed in our home for 2-3 weeks and other short periods. Furthermore, she created a relationship without dogs and they clearly lived her. For that, I never had a fear or second thought about our dogs not being safe and well cared for. Sarah will always be our go to for pet care services. I urge you to do the same, you won't be disappointed.

I have known Sarah for over 5 years now, and she is a super sweet, caring and attentive fur-baby care giver for sure!! We have two dogs and two cats - one of the dogs is on four medications which she is more than comfortable administering. And when we are out of town, she sends us daily photos of the kids enjoying their day or getting ready for bed. When we are away, I trust her with our babies as if they were her own... and I know in my heart that when Sarah is caring for our babies or anyone else's for that matter, that that is how she approaches it as well.

Sara was recommended by our veterinarian. We have an 11 year old Boxer whose hind quarters are paralyzed. As a result, he needs help to walk and he is incontinent. I was in a panic since I work and didn’t think it was acceptable to leave him home alone every day with the potential of laying in wet or soiled bedding. Sara comes once a day and takes care of him. He loves her. My goal in asking Sara to help was to make sure he was comfortable. However, Sara always goes above and beyond. One day, she found him bleeding from a tumor on his foot. She called me and I couldn’t get home for several hours. So she took him to the vet, they fixed his foot and she brought him home again. This is really what you want from a pet-sitter; someone who can make a decision and keep your pet safe. She is reliable and honest and takes her job very seriously. We are convinced that part of why our dog is doing so well is because he knows that Sara will be by to check on him and he doesn’t feel so lonely and scared. I would highly recommend her.

Sarah has pet sat for my pets many times. She is wonderful with the pets and I trust her completely with them and in my home. My dogs love her and she always stays in contact to let me know how they are doing. It really makes me comfortable when I am away from my babies!

Information Sarah B. would like to know about your pet

I'd need to know if pet has any medical concerns including allergies. If needs any medications & frequencies. Also any fears such as thunderstorms, fireworks etc. Or any aggressive behavior. I'm comfortable with any breed out there.

A typical day

Your dog will enjoy walks around the neighborhood to distract him & release some extra energy. We can also toss a ball or favorite toy around the yard. But if your dog is more inclined to just hang out at home I can cuddle with him on the couch & he can enjoy belly rubs. If he's allowed to he can snuggle with me in bed at night always feeling loved.
