Safety, trust & environment

They’ll have access to a large, fully fenced yard for safe potty breaks and outdoor time, along with a minimum of one walk daily. Off-leash adventures can also be offered for the right fit. I share my home with two cats and children, so any dog staying with us must be comfortable, gentle, and non-reactive in these environments. For everyone’s comfort and safety, trial meet-and-greets are required for all new boarding clients.

Information Sarah C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about any triggers your dog may have (such as loud noises, prey drive, or skateboards), along with their favorite activities and quirks. I’d also love to hear about any training they’ve had or are currently working on, so I can provide the most comfortable, supportive care possible.

A typical day

Your dog will have access to a huge, fully fenced yard where they can safely run, explore, play fetch, and stretch their legs throughout the day. Based on their energy level and health needs, I make sure they get at least one daily walk tailored just for them, whether that’s a leisurely sniff-walk or a longer adventure.

Pet care experience

I’ve had pets my entire life, giving me a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages and personalities. To me, pets are family, and I believe they deserve the same love, patience, and respect as any other family member. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies and curious kittens to gentle senior cats and dogs, and I understand how each stage of life comes with unique needs. I also have experience with reactive dogs and truly understand how stressful it can feel to trust someone else with a pup who needs extra care, patience, and awareness. My goal is always to create a calm, safe, and supportive environment where your pet feels secure and understood. With dogs, I have extensive experience in training, including agility, and I’m happy to reinforce any ongoing training routines you’re working on. While most of my experience has been caring for my own pets and those of close friends and family, I’m excited to expand my services and help more pet parents feel confident, supported, and worry-free while they’re away.

I leave my dog with Sarah every time I travel for work and he is never more spoiled and doted on than when he is in her care (I suspect he is disappointed to see me come home). Her work from home schedule allows for a ton of time to play and snuggle and my dog couldn’t be happier about it!
