I can't wait to meet your fur baby

Pet care experience

I have experience with taking care of cats for many years both my own and checking in on family friends cats, in the past several years I've been dog sitting for family. I've volunteered at my local animal shelter. I have catered to pets used to a strict schedule or regimen including specialty diets. I enjoy taking care of pets whether it be getting exercise from walks, cuddle time, play time, basic grooming, making homemade treats. I care greatly about how animals are feeling at all times and do my best to insure they are comfortable, happy and healthy. I have experience administering medications, typically oral pill and liquid, as well as inhalers. I also love taking pictures and videos of pets. I even have a social media account dedicated to the pets I come across, including my own and family and friends.

Sarah did a remarkable job! We were very pleased with her dependability, friendliness to us (and our usually scaredy cat), went over and above with cleaning, brushing, etc., as well as keeping us informed. The pictures were a plus!

Safety, trust & environment

When taking care of pets in others homes, I enjoy plenty of information about your pet, no matter how big or small, things they like, what they don't like, health conditions, what they're used to in their typical everyday environment. When checking in on cats, I check water and food levels, clean litter, brush, and play. With dogs, check water and food, take them out to relieve themselves, play, and brush. When caring in home overnight or for an extended period of time, I make sure to stick to routines, if any are in place.

Information Sarah D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any health conditions, any medications that I may need to administer, including dosing and frequency, behavioral problems and your dogs personal boundaries, describe their likes and dislikes, if you have a schedule you'd like me to stick to, places I should or shouldn't take them, or allow them to go to either in or out of your home and if they're allowed to do certain things such as be on the furniture.

A typical day

I would love to play until your pup is all tuckered out. I also would enjoy working on tricks/ training, if that's something you're interested in. I can bake homemade doggy treats and account for dietary restrictions. I would love to give a puppy pampering, which can include a massage, moisturizing paw pads and nose, trimming nails, teeth brushing and giving a good brush down. I love getting all the excess shedded hair out of coats and detangling knots. Your pup and I can go on mini adventures and explore new places to walk. I typically enjoy local parks. If your pup is more low energy, I'd be happy to keep them company doing whatever it is they desire. If they want cuddles or to take a mid day nap I'll pet them while they rest and try my best not to disturb their slumber. I try to take lots of photos and videos of animals. I can capture them all throughout my time with them (with your permission of course) and share them with you and if you wouldn't mind I could show them off on my Instagram page for the pets I come in contact with (once again with your permission).

I have many days open and available to check in on, watch and take care of your furry loved ones. Most days I either have no prior engagements or very few, meaning I can spend more time with your pets to put your mind at ease.
