Professionally Trained & Certified

Pet care experience

Pet care with peace of mind-- a decade of professional pet care experience! I am a former professional dog walker with Little Paws Dog Walking, volunteer trainer with the Humane Society, and trained in handling skills, positive reinforcement clicker training, and cat and dog first aid and CPR. As a lifelong pet owner, I love nurturing dogs and cats of all backgrounds, sizes, breeds, and training levels. I have experience with senior and puppy care, high-energy and reactivity, anxiety disorders, and basic medical care, including medication administration. Your fur baby will be treated like part of the family! **First time Rover users $20 off their first booking by using promo code SARAHF25695 at https://www.rover.com/sit/sarahf27719** FOR DOG WALKING: With ten years of professional dog walking experience, I can safely walk pups of all sizes, needs, and exercise levels, including high-energy, senior, large breed, pulling, and reactivity. Happy to accommodate special requests, including training. FOR HOUSE SITTING: I offer full-time care or regular drop-in service, which can include complimentary dog walking or special requests (with prior authorization), including basic training services, medical care, pet transport or approved excursions, and basic household needs. Send me a message and let me know how I can help! For most requests, meet and greets can be scheduled ahead of time to cover the basics and discuss any special needs or requests. I can't wait to meet your pet!

First time using Rover and Sarah was amazing. Took the time to get to know my pups and their habits. Already scheduled for another walk.

I was so happy to find Sarah! She is kind, responsive and really knowledgeable about dogs. I have two high energy herding mutts that can take advantage of new folks but she had them walking in an orderly fashion immediately it was impressive. I also have a cat and will definitely be using her for house sitting she is extremely responsible and conscientious

Sarah is amazing! Our introverted pup is hesistant to welcome new visitors and she took to Sarah immediately. We were very comfortable leaving Lilo in Sarah's care. She was very attentive to Lilo while we were gone. Much appreciated!

Sarah continues to be fantastic. She is doing a great job helping our rescue dog settle into our home. We had a few unexpected issues come up this week and she was understanding, flexible and very helpful.
