Information Sarah C. would like to know about your pet

As a former Therapist, I’m always happy to work with dogs who may have needs that require more patience, and I understand the power of quiet time and decompressing with high-anxiety dogs. I am also happy to administer meds, snuggles, and more!

A typical day

I love the stimulation a good walk gives the dog- allowing for sniffs, exploring, potty time, and good belly rubs! I also love fetch, swimming, and exploring local parks and adventures!

Pet care experience

Hey y’all! 👋 I’m Sarah — former therapist, now a tech leader by day, and an animal lover always. With 25+ years of experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds, plus guinea pigs, turtles, chinchillas, and exotic birds. (Snakes and arachnids are my only hard no! 😬) 🌟 In between the hustle of tech, I love to walk, hike, and swim with dogs of every size and age. I work remote, so I have a lot of flexibility around my schedule. I don’t have kids, so caring for your pups is an absolute joy — it’s truly a hobby for me. ❤️ In my care, your pups will be treated like my own — loved on, exercised, showered in kisses and snuggles, sent plenty of pics, and taken on lots of little adventures. I am a detail oriented gal and very thorough with all communication to keep pet owners at ease during their time away. 👌 I am comfortable with medication administration (oral, topical, injection) with dogs. 🐕 I also have a very playful mixed pup, Ollie, who loves a good walk, trot through the woods, a nap, & a good game of fetch! 📆 I’m currently booking for drop-ins and walks, with availability that may vary month to month — feel free to reach out! I do not do boarding at this time. 😊 I look forward to loving your pets just as I do my own!

She did an amazing job taking care of my two goober's, sent lots of pictures and detailed updates. 10/10 would recommend and book again.

Sarah C was great watching my dog Aspen! Being a Great Dane I was nervous but she walked her everyday, sent constant pictures and my dog didn’t want to leave when I showed up!! I highly recommend her in the Raliegh area. Bonus, her house has huge fenced in backyard!

Sarah has a true love of all animals, and treats her dog like a member of her family. She feeds her dog a very healthy diet, walks him routinely, and keeps up with all of his health care needs. She is very responsible ; I would trust her with any of my pet.
