Caring dog sitting services
I’ve been dog-sitting for over four years, caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic one-year-olds to wise, senior pups who are 15. Throughout my neighborhood and within my extended family, I’ve earned a reputation for providing reliable and loving care. My duties typically include daily walks, meal preparations, and plenty of playtime—tasks I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. Each dog is unique, and I love the challenge of tailoring my care to meet their individual needs, whether it’s keeping an active pup engaged or offering a calm, comforting presence to an older dog. Dog-sitting is not just a job—it's a passion that brings me joy and fulfillment.

Safety, trust & environment
I take care of my dog and others' dogs by maintaining a consistent routine for meals, walks, and playtime to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. While dog-sitting, I follow the owners' instructions carefully, providing personalized care, attention, and mental stimulation for each dog. I prioritize their safety and well-being by keeping the environment clean, offering plenty of fresh water, and offering supervision to help them feel at ease.
Ratings and reviews
Sarah is seriously so great! She has been walking Birdie weekly for nearly a month now and is ALWAYS on time and very communicative. So thankful for her help, and I’m so glad Birdie loves her as well!

Sarah was great! She arrived a few minutes early and was so sweet and warm with my birdie right away. I’m excited to be able to book her again routinely.

I am writing to enthusiastically recommend my daughter, Sarah Ericson, who has been caring for and looking after dogs since she was five years old. Sarah developed an exceptional bond with our dogs and shown remarkable responsibility, empathy, and dedication to their well-being. At the age of five the first pup entered into our house and at a very young age Sarah demonstrated an innate understanding of the needs of dogs, and her caregiving skills have only grown as she has matured. From that very young age Sarah was involved in our dog’s training, grooming, walking, and daily care. When our first dog passed away it was heartbreaking and there was a definite void. Sarah was one of the reasons we decided on adding a new puppy to our family. At the time Sarah was a sophomore in high school. Sarah took on the full responsibility of this new puppy including taking he puppy out in the wee hours of the morning, bathing, feeding and walking in fact Sarah was very involved in the training of our dogs. Sarah’s hand’s on experience with our dogs opened the door for her to watch our neighbor’s dogs. She shows amazing responsibility and ensures every dog receives the best care possible. I know if our dog could talk he would say that Sarah takes moments with him to make him feel extra special and safe. I have no doubt that Sarah will always provide a safe, loving, and enriching environment for any animal in her care. Sarah has the qualities of a dedicated, responsible, and loving caregiver, and I wholeheartedly recommend her.
Sarah has watched my dog for two consecutive summers and I have never had a single complaint with her! Every year my wife and I go to New England for our yearly summer trip and are gone for just over two weeks. Cliff our 3 year old golden and is full of energy and Sarah never fails to make sure he gets his play time in and takes him for the long walks he loves. Sarah has done exceptionally well job when it comes to watching our dog and we couldn’t be any more pleased with her help!

Schedule
I'm a freshman at Christopher Newport University, and I’m also part of the women’s lacrosse team! I have a flexible schedule, especially on weekends, when I'm mostly free in the mornings and evenings, with a break around noon. My availability can vary depending on my lacrosse commitments and class schedule, but I’m always happy to work around that to accommodate your needs. Whether it's for dog-sitting or any other help, I'm dedicated and reliable!
