Pet care experience

Treating your pet as if it’s my own

**Not currently accepting weekly repeat bookings** I've owned pets my whole life, and love taking care of them! I worked at Blue Ridge Veterinary Associates, and have delivered several litters of puppies, so I am experienced in dog care. I took a class on how to train dogs, so I can also assist in basic dog training. Having volunteered at Wheatland Farm for a year, I know how to care for a variety of farm animals as well. I love to go for walks, play, and cuddle with all types of pets. I’ve owned cats for almost my whole life as well, so I adore caring for them too! I can administer medication as needed.

Sarah took great care of our zoo, including giving meds to our cat (which it’s always easy), while we were gone for a long weekend. Would gladly have her watch them again!

Sarah was so awesome! Very responsive and attentive. She even took my dog for a good walk when it was raining. Highly recommend! Thank you!

We've had Sarah stay with our two dogs at our home a few times now. She's reliable, does a great job, and takes great care of our pups and home. This time we had just got our power back after a week-long power outage and had only a few hours to clean up before we had to leave town, so the house wasn't in quite as good shape as it normally is. Sarah was easygoing about it and seemed unfazed. We won't hesitate to have her come for another stay!

Sarah did a fantastic job staying overnight and taking care of our 5 year old beagle. She was prompt, attentive, and made sure Benji stayed on his schedule. Would recommend her to take care of anyone’s furry family members!

Please me know if your dog has any special needs or behavioral concerns in advance. I would also like to know if I will need to be administering medication in advance.
