Experienced Pet Snuggle Specialist
Pet care experience
I grew up on a farm. When I was 8 years old, I was cleaning horses’ hooves, feeding cows, training my dog, and playing with a LOT of cats. I definitely come by my love of animals honestly! As an adult, in addition to caring for my own pets and helping with friends’, I have worked for Pawsitively Paws in Portland as well as with Rover for a short time. I know how to calm an anxious animal and identify body language to know what they’re feeling. I know how to administer medicine empathetically and efficiently to make it a minimally scary experience. I used to show my dog at the county fair and was in the programs to learn about proper dog handling and care, so I have a fair amount of experience working with dogs in sometimes stressful environments. I am passionate about caring for animals and would love to spend time taking care of your pets!
Reviews
Got the job done but was delayed to the visit.
Sarah seemed to be very thorough and sweet to my timid cat. I would definitely recommend her to cat sit anyone’s cat.
I have personally known Sarah for some time now and consider her to be very a considerate, respectful, and conscientious individual. She is also very focused and goal-oriented, I have every confidence that she will exceed in whatever tasks are assigned to her.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a decent sized apartment with access to a grassy yard and several nearby parks, and I am at home a lot throughout the day so I can care for animals in my home. I also have the schedule flexibility to care for pets overnight in client’s homes as needed.
Information Sarah F. would like to know about your pet
Let me know how your animal interacts with other animals and/or people so I can be prepared to handle any situations that may arise during walks.
A typical day
I love to take active dogs to get exercise with me and play games. We will explore the neighborhood during walks and play fetch during visits.
