Pet care experience
I have always loved animals. I grew up with labs in my home and a cat. I had my first pet care job when I was 6 and I would go to my next door neighbor’s to feed and check on their dog and cat since they were frequently out of town. I began dog walking at the age of 12. I have 2 dogs now. A 10 year old pug and a 3 year old puggle. They love other dogs and are both good with cats and would love another playmate or would be happy to just share space in their home. I have cared for them as well as my brothers boxer mix since puppyhood and have experience with walking ,medication administration, bathing, feeding/special diets. I have fostered 2 kittens recently and am comfortable spending time with them as well. I also have 2 turtles and have cared for other types of reptiles.
Reviews
I highly recommend Sarah. Her pets are her babies and she takes such good care of them. She applies that care to any animal she takes care of. She’s so thoughtful; at Christmas time she loves to deliver homemade treats for my pets as well as my family. I know I can count on her be responsible and treat my pets well. Sarah is reliable, honest, and as sweet as they come. She really is the best!
I think my dog duke loves Sarah more than he loves me. Shes so great with him. And her pups are so happy and healthy too.
Sarah loves animals of all kinds. She has had two dogs of her own for several years. She has a nine year old pug with special needs and a three year old puggle that is a busy little boy and keeps her on her toes! They both love her and like to have her close. She takes very good care of them by feeding them right and making sure they get regular checkups. Sarah has taken care of other peoples dogs including a boxer/heeler mix, St.Bernard and corgi. She has also owned and cared for reptiles. I have found Sarah to be trustworthy and dependable.
I have watched Sarah in action caring for dogs and can honestly say that her love for animals shows. She is caring and patient but firm when she needs be. She is knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors and needs. Her dogs are happiest when she is around for play or just snuggling and attentions. She has a special way of communicating with her dogs that I find unique and wonderful

Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment with a large balcony that my dogs love to spend time on for play and relaxation and also have a section for bathroom use if needed, but they are also taken for waljs 3-4 times per day. The apartment complex also has a gated courtyard that is pet friendly. My little 2 sleep in a kennel together, there’s an extra large kennel for another dog or doggie siblings to stay. We love to play in our spacious open front room and soak up sun in our private outdoor area. There is a rec center at the end of the street that has a dog friendly lawn for walks. I can care for cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, rabbits, etc. in my home. I will ask for clear instructions so that the separation is as easy as possible for the pet and owner. I will always make sure that the pet knowing someone is there for them is the highest priority and that individual preferences of animals and owners are valued.

We will play indoors in my living room and outdoors on my balcony. We will take several walks around the block or around the nearby park. My 2 dogs will be good playmates.

Availability
I am home in the evenings and have at least 2 days off from my job each week and only book services on those days. My job has set consistent hours so I know when I schedule pet services that I will be available for the care that is needed. Animals are really what I love and I like being able to put the love into caring for them that I feel from their presence.
