Pet care is a natural part of my daily life, so it fits right in with my routine! I already spend my days caring for animals, managing feeding, walks, playtime, training, and all the little details that help pets feel happy and comfortable. Since I work from home part-time, I’m able to be flexible and give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need throughout the day and week.

Safety, trust & environment

I keep things cheerful and consistent, treating every pet like one of my own! Drop-ins & Walks I stick to their normal routine—fresh water, meals on schedule, potty breaks, and playtime tailored to their energy. I send photo/video updates so you can see your pet happy and relaxed, plus I tidy up toys, wipe paws, and keep everything spotless. House Sitting I maintain their feeding, play, and sleep schedule while keeping your home clean and secure. Medications? No problem. Multiple pets? I’ve got experience handling dynamics with calm, cheerful energy. It’s all about making pets feel safe, loved, and excited to see me (and you) again! 🐾

Information Sarah D. would like to know about your pet

To keep things fun, safe, and stress-free, here are the pet details I love knowing ahead of time: • Daily routine: Feeding times, walk schedules, play preferences, and bedtime vibes (I stick to their normal flow!). • Health needs: Medications (with instructions), allergies, injuries, or senior care requirements—I’m experienced and careful. • Personality quirks: Shy, high-energy, food-motivated, or “selective listener”? Helps me tailor my cheerful approach. • Fears & triggers: Loud noises, strangers, certain toys, or handling spots—I avoid stress and build trust fast. • House rules: Where they’re allowed, toy storage, emergency contacts, and any multi-pet dynamics. I really prefer a meet-and-greet first—it’s the best way for me to learn their quirks and for them to warm up to my bubbly energy! 🐾🥰

A typical day

I love mixing up fun, tail-wagging activities tailored to each pet’s personality and energy level—keeping them happy, exercised, and excited for more! Here’s what we can do together: • Puppy playtime: Fetch, tug-of-war, and gentle training games to burn zoomies while teaching good habits (I’ve been doing puppy obedience since 2020!). • Adventure walks: Sniffari explorations, park visits, or neighborhood loops to satisfy their curious nose and get those steps in. • Senior snuggles: Cozy lap time, light stretches, puzzle toys for brain games, and gentle massages—no overdoing it for the wise ones. • Cat capers: Laser chases, feather wand battles, window bird-watching parties, or chill cuddle sessions (I’m a total cat person!). • Multi-pet magic: Supervised playdates with breaks, ensuring everyone gets individual love in busy households. All with lots of praise, treats (if approved), and photo updates so you see the fun. Every pet leaves tired, happy, and already missing me!

Pet care experience

Sarah was extremely communicative while we were on our vacation. I felt very comfortable with her taking care of my dog & kitties at the house. Look forward to using her again!

Sarah never showed up for the drop in visit I booked, didn't provide a reason or communicate, and didn't respond to my message asking if she was still coming.

Sarah’s the best! Took my last minute request to take care of my 11-year-old boxer mix while I went out of country for 2 weeks and she was incredibly communicative and proactive with sending updates on his well-being, little moments with him, any minor abnormalities, etc. It made me & my family feel very at ease seeing all the pictures and commentary from each drop-in visit. JJ seemed very eager every time she stopped by. She even found little extra ways to get him to eat (pretending to cook his food on the stove like my Viet mom would) and would spend extra time to make sure he got off-leash time at the dog park. Will be booking her again for JJ when occasion comes up! Thanks Sarah!
