Pet care experience

Fun-Loving Pet Enthusiast Ready

I've always had a deep love for animals, from dogs and cats to cows and goats. My journey with pets has been filled with joy, having been a proud parent to two dogs and a cat. Though they have passed, the love and lessons they left me with endure. I'm eager to share that care and compassion with your pets, ensuring they feel as loved and cherished as my own. Whether it's a walk or simply providing companionship, I look forward to being a helpful and joyful part of your pet's life. I’ve worked with deaf and blind senior dogs/cats. I've provided additional care by administering eye drops, spoon feeding, oral medication (pills or syringe), and ear medication. I’m experienced in administering IV fluids or insulin for cats. My approach is always gentle and compassionate, prioritizing each pet’s comfortability.

Sarah did such a great job taking care of my cat. She was super communicative and provided detailed updates with photos. My cat was very comfortable interacting with her during their visits. Definitely will be booking with Sarah again!

I can’t say enough good things about Sarah and how well she cares for our dogs and our home. We have a special needs dog that is especially challenging, and she is so patient and good with him. He takes a lot of medicine and has a special feeding routine. He has been especially picky about food recently, and Sarah somehow managed to get him to eat all his meals. Both of our dogs love her, and our other dog has even been checking the guest room when we wake up in the morning to see if Sarah is still here. Sarah takes great care of our house as well. I cannot recommend her enough!

Otis had a great visit with Sarah! She was prompt, thorough, and took the time to ask about his history to make sure he had the best experience possible. I also really appreciated all the photos she shared throughout the visit, it gave me so much peace of mind. We look forward to booking with Sarah again soon. Thank you, Sarah!

Sarah has been an amazing sitter for us! She's been flexible and accommodating to our cats as well our sitting needs. We looked forward to her wonderful drop in updates every day we were gone. She was even able to coax one of our more shy cats out of hiding for some pets! Highly recommend Sarah for your pet sitting needs!

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs. Please make sure to supply with leash, treats, food, bowls and poop bag for drop ins, walks, and sitting. Please let me know what commands they use/understand so I can incorporate as well. Lastly, let me know what makes them your favorite, what makes them happy, where’s their favorite petting spot, or even what stresses them out and to avoid.
