Calm Care for Complex Dogs
Pet care experience
My 13 year old senior dog, Dixie, recently crossed the rainbow bridge. I’m honoring her by caring for other dogs with the same love and patience. I have 15+ years of experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to seniors with medical or behavioral needs. I’m confident with reactive and shy dogs, medication, and custom routines because I’ve lived it. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority and I will always put your pet first. I provide honest, compassionate care tailored to their needs without judgment.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I create a calm, secure environment where pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether in my home or theirs, I work on building trust by moving at each pet’s pace and honoring their boundaries. Safety is always my top priority, I supervise pets closely, follow all instructions carefully, and adapt to their unique needs. I keep spaces clean, hazard-free, and ensure pets have fresh water, proper food, and quiet resting spots. For reactive or anxious pets, I use gentle, low stress handling & positive reinforcement or redirecting to help them feel calm and supported. Every care plan is tailored specifically to your pet’s needs after we discuss what works best for them.

Information Sarah F. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs regarding medication, reactivity, behavior, preferred treats/activities, anything that will make them feel most comfortable.
A typical day
Walking, sniffing, puzzles, games, cuddles & love - it really depends on what your pet needs and what will make them most comfortable. I can get creative!

Availability
I work full time from home which allows me the flexibility to prioritize pet care in a way I wouldn’t be able to with a traditional office job. This looks like breaks for play time, medication, cuddles or walks when they are needed, not when they can be fit in.
