Dogs and cats alike
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Sarah and I have been petting sitting for a little over two years now and love all animals but before you consider requesting me please know this. I have a pup, Lylah, who is a Siberian husky mix under 50 pounds. When I stay the night at clients' places or need to stay somewhere for long hours I do require to bring her with me. We can do introductions beforehand to make sure they get along but it is a nonnegotiable term and something to consider. I bring everything with me, a crate for her to sleep in, her own food to eat, and etc. She is very well trained and well-behaved and loves to play with other dogs and is even familiar with cats as I have a few me. so please consider that before requesting me. It honestly brings me joy to take care of dogs and cats alike. To be honest I love animals more than I do people and because of that, I find that spending time with animals is almost like a calming agent of sorts. I also love to take photos of the animals I sit so when I am usually done with a request I will send the photos I have taken to the owners so that they can have them for life. Even the moments you might not be there for. I love to capture expressions, movement, and just general curiosity in animals. My preferred method of watching pets is to stay overnight just because they get more attention and I can be there in case something does happen to them. I provide extra care around the home as well and clean up after myself the day before or the day I am leaving. I believe the owners should come back from vacation to a clean home, not a messy one. I look forward to looking after your lovely fur babies
Reviews
Sarah is a dependable sitter who watched our two pugs for a day while we were gone. She comes when she says she will and does a meet and greet with her dog Lylah ( that is impressively-trained) to make sure it’s a good fit to bring her on longer stays which we needed as our senior needs frequent potty breaks. .
Sarah was awesome. Our puppies loved her, and she was very responsible, even putting up with us being helicopter puppy parents! :). Her dog, Lyla was very friendly and played will with our puppies. We will definitely be calling her again.
Sarah was fantastic with our 2 pups while we were out of town. She sent pictures and videos, and even washed the sheets and towels before she left!
Sarah is absolutely amazing. I never doubt my pups are in good hands when she’s watching them. She sends me regular updates and photos of them playing and sleeping which is so comforting. My home is always left in tip top shape. You can vacation easy knowing Sarah is taking care of your four legged friends at home.

I make sure to watch the dogs while they play so if things get intense I can break it up and make them calm down. I normally give out bones so Lylah can chew on them to destress herself while I'm working or if we're stuck inside. At clients' homes, I make sure to keep things clean so that the dogs don't get into things they aren't supposed to. I also make sure that if they are in the yard that they are supervised and try to sit outside with them so that I can see what's going on.
Information Sarah D. would like to know about your pet
Are they dog-friendly? Are they leash reactive if I take them out on a walk? Do they require special medication? Are they on a special diet?
A typical day
I usally like to go out on walks twice a day with my pup and I could do the same for your pups and take them out as a pack. I sometimes go on walks at a nearby bird park down the road from me so that its quieter and the dogs can get all the wonderful sights and smells.
