WFH Pet Lover w/ Experience

Pet care experience

I have cared for dogs of all types and sizes my whole life and haven’t met a pup I don’t love. My friends and family often ask me to care for their animals while they are away and I love them like my own. I have pet sit/raised dogs with separation anxiety, hyper activity, resource guarding, and so much more. I have done so much training with professionals and happy to assist in any way I can with any pups that are still learning. I am also comfortable with administering medication as needed. Me and my husband are currently raising two dogs, Blue (2.5 y/o) and Squid (7 months). They couldn’t be more different and they bring so much love to my life. Blue is a timid, mini dachshund and squid is a mixed breed medium sized dog with all the energy in the world. (They wouldn’t be joining me for pet sits, unless you want your dog to get some socialization in!) I also love capturing great pics of pets!!

When you travel and have to leave your fur babies at home it's always a very scary, high anxiety moment. With Sarah, we were SO comfortable and knew that our fur babies would be taken care of. She came and met us before we left for our getaway to make sure it was a fit on both sides. She took care of them just like they were her own. She sent us daily updates and even sent us pictures. I can't say enough about Sarah, we will definitely have her watch our babies again. If you have any doubts about leaving your pets with someone else then hire Sarah because she is too notch. Thank you Sarah

Sarah was an excellent! We booked a week long in (our) home boarding for our two cats and dog. She took great care of them and great photos too. She was very accommodating and we could tell our pets were happy in her care from the photos. She even administered the inhaler to our asthmatic cat daily. We look forward to booking with her again.

Sarah was great with my babies, sent updates, and pictures! They were both happy and tired when I got home! I will definitely use her services again!

Sarah was a wonderful house/dog sitter while We were away. She is mature, professional, reliable, and flexible. I felt completely at ease having her stay with my pup. She sent pictures and a little recap of the day each evening which was perfect. Plus, she was easy to communicate with, set up a meet and greet with, and work out a schedule with. She left everything as it was and clean! Luna seemed happy and got lots of love. Thank you Sarah! I will definitely ask for your help in the future :)

I can care for your pets in your home in whatever way feels comfortable for you. If you have a routine I try to keep the dogs on that routine because I know how important that can be. I am comfortable with dogs parks if that is preferred but also happy to do long walks!

Information Sarah B. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know routine, anything they are learning, and any special needs they have. Please let me know if there is anything you don’t want them doing (being on furniture, sleeping in bed, etc.)

A typical day

I love my playing with my dogs and working on any training that needs to be done. I.e. if your dog is struggling with loose leash walking, I’ll help work on it! I love walking on paths and/or parks, but open to whatever is around/where your dogs will feel most comfortable!
