Paws-tively Perfect Pet Care

I've always loved animals, particularly dogs, so any opportunity I have to play, walk or snuggle with a dog, I'm going to take it! This passion kicked off my pet sitting experience which dates back to high school when my neighbors would ask me to watch their dog while they went on vacation. Since then, I've continued to offer pet sitting to friends, family and others. This experience ranges from puppies to seniors, tiny to large, and mellow to active dogs. I've some training experience, so that's helpful with new puppies looking for routines. In my experience with senior dogs, I've cared for dogs that need extra attention including frequent medicine, bathroom breaks and even IV fluids. My priority one in pet sitting is to provide as much love and attention as I can to your pup so they can feel like one of my pack.

Sarah took excellent care of our two dogs and was wonderful to work with. We were lucky to find such a quality dog sitter on short notice. You can tell she really cares for your pets while you are away.

There’s no one i could trust more than Sarah to watch my dogs. We had our two pups stay for 5 days and she included many pictures of them each day. When we picked them up they were very happy.

Sarah is the best! She was very responsive, and sent photos and updates every day to keep us in the loop on how our boy was doing. We ran into a delay on our return flight and she was open to bringing him by our house despite originally planning for us to pick him up. 10/10 Thank you Sarah!

Schedule

I work from home most days of the week, so I can spend the whole day with your dog at my side. This allows me to meet your dog's schedule needs (specific walk times, feed times, etc.). On the rare occasion that I’m in office, my partner, who is fully remote, is happy to take point in the short time I'm away.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a two story home with a fenced-in yard. This offers plenty of space inside to explore and outside for leash free play (if approved by mom and/or dad). I do have one dog, a Pomeranian-Husky named Byrd, who welcomes playmates. She has free range of the house, so any client's dog would too unless specified otherwise. I would have water and food bowls available in the kitchen all day. I tend to do feedings at specific times but if a client's dog is a grazer, I can make that work. When leaving the house, I have Byrd gated to the first floor; it would be the same for other boarders unless the client prefers for their dog to be crated. I have a camera in my living room that lets me see and talk to the dogs while I'm out of the house (which I try to do rarely if there are doggy guests). Clients can expect plenty of photos and updates on their pets via text.

A typical day

Day starts with AM bathroom break and breakfast. Morning and/or afternoon walks around the neighborhood are guaranteed. I'm less than a five-minute drive from Forest Park, so I sometimes will take dogs there for longer walks. Byrd has tons of toys to share for play time.
