Let Me Care for Yours Like My Own
Pet care experience
Have lived all my life with pets, always cats and frequently dogs. I have even adopted other people's dogs when their living situations didn't allow for it. That's how I fell in love with pit bulls, such great family dogs, because I adopted a stranger's ABT and then that stranger became my roommate to live with her dog again. I have lived and cared for lab mixes, German Shephards, Dobermans. I even used to live with a Great Pyrenees show dog (until she accidentally got pregnant.) I am patient and kind to animals and know the easiest way to get to know them is just to be with them. They love us so unconditionally, as I will them. I look forward to caring for your loved ones.
Reviews
Sarah was great! She was punctual and always within reach. Thank you!
Thank you so much for taking care of our kitty! We appreciate all the updates and photos, it was great to know she was in good hands.
This is our second time booking with Sarah. She's responsive, punctual, attentive to detail, and just a super lovely person. We came home to a clean home and happy kitties, and got very detailed and thoughtful updates (along with super cute photos). Thanks Sarah!! I'm sure we'll book again
Sarah was fantastic! She sends the best updates with plenty of pictures. Will definitely book her again! Thank you Sarah!!

Safety, trust & environment
All pet care will be in the pet owner’s residence. NONE will be at my own home, as I do not provide boarding services. Please let me know if your cats are indoor only, or outdoor if supervised, or free to come and go as they please. And for those clients with key pad access, make sure there is a back up way to gain access in case the battery dies (it’s happened!) such as a spare key in a lock box or with a readily accessible neighbor or relative. And let me know if I have no expectation of privacy. I totally understand wanting to check in on your pets while away, (it’s just awesome that we can!) but on that note, having pets myself, I am in the habit of never closing doors, as the cats always want access at all times. Just let me know if I should close doors while visiting! :-)
Information Sarah C. would like to know about your pet
Any injuries or concerns I should know about in advance— arthritis in the knees or hips on a certain side, not able to take stairs on bad days, or if unspayed and possibly in heat or menstruating. I just have it that a pet should not be bleeding on a regular basis— that it’s cause for concern!
A typical day
Besides around the block, we will go to the nearest dog-friendly available park. I go the pace the dog sets, and the direction they prefer (when traffic and signals allow). I always talk and motion options, and once we are comfortable with one another, I usually start making up songs specific to your dog!

Availability
I take care of pets full time, and have other side hustles, in addition to traveling. Some months I’m in Los Angeles, some others in Leander, TX.
