Pet care experience

Your Pet’s New Best Friend in PT

Hi, I’m Sarah! I’m new to Port Townsend and excited to connect with local pet parents. I recently said goodbye to my sweet dog of 12 years, and while I’m not ready for another pup of my own yet, I miss the daily joy of caring for animals — which is why I’m here. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m available for dog walks, drop‑ins, and overnight pet sitting. I’ve cared for many dogs and cats for friends and family over the years, and I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and personalities. If you’re looking for someone calm, reliable, and genuinely loving with animals, I’d be happy to help care for your furry family member.

Sarah has been wonderful to work with. She was super responsive, flexible, and offered a great pet sitting experience. She genuinely loves our dog and we are super grateful to know her and have her as a resource for our family and pet!

Sarah did a wonderful job watching my cat, Pip, while I was away. Sarah was reliable, communicative, and caring. I fully trusted that Pip was in good hands!

Sarah is one of the most dependable people I know. She has taken care of my cats several times and I trust her totally. She loves animals and will take great care of your pet, too!

Sarah watched our pup Homer and his friend Oscar for us over the weekend when my husband and I were away. She stayed at our house and was super respectful of it, and spent quality time with the dogs, which was exactly what we were hoping for. She played with Homer to make sure he got his exercise and followed our feeding schedule. I would hands down ask Sarah again to watch our dogs in our home. She has a lot of experience with dogs, because her family owns two as well, and I find Sarah to be a very responsible and trustworthy pet sitter!

Schedule

I currently work from home Monday through Thursday, which means I’m around throughout the day to give your pets consistent attention, companionship, and care. On Fridays through Sundays, I’m fully off — giving me even more flexibility for longer visits, overnights, or extra time with pets who need a little more company. Because I can take my computer anywhere there’s WiFi, I’m able to work from your home if needed. This allows me to keep your pets in their familiar environment while maintaining their normal routines. Whether they like midday play sessions, quiet company while they nap, or a structured schedule, I can be there.

Safety, trust & environment

When I’m caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to make everything feel seamless, safe, and respectful — for both you and your animals. I’m extremely mindful of people’s privacy and personal space. If a door is closed, it stays closed. I only access the areas you’ve clearly indicated are part of your pet’s routine. Your home is your sanctuary, and I treat it with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’m very detail‑oriented and follow instructions exactly as you provide them. Whether your pet has a specific feeding schedule, medication routine, favorite toy, or quirky bedtime ritual, I make sure everything is done just the way they’re used to. Consistency helps pets feel secure, and I take that seriously. You’ll never have to wonder how things are going while you’re away. I send daily updates — often more if you’d like — along with plenty of photos so you can see how happy and comfortable your pet is. My goal is to give you total peace of mind.

A typical day

With all the many dog walking trails in Port Townsend, I'm excited to explore them all with your dog. If your dog likes to fetch, even better!
