A typical day
As a fellow pet lover in Mandarin, I understand how much our sunny days and beautiful green spaces (like Mandarin Park or the Julington Durbin Preserve) inspire outdoor fun. Here’s how I’ll keep your furry family members happy, safe, and entertained: For Dogs: -Shaded Strolls & Splash Time: Beat the Florida heat with walks during cooler mornings or evenings, playtime in shaded areas, or backyard sprinkler/pool playtime -Brain Games: Teach new tricks (with your permission) or use puzzle toys to keep their minds sharp. -Indoor Play: Air-conditioned games of fetch, hide-and-seek, or relaxed downtime for pups sensitive to the heat. -Photo Updates: I’ll send snapshots of your dog exploring local trails or snoozing after playtime. For Cats: -Interactive Play: Feather wands, laser chase games, or catnip toys to satisfy their natural curiosity. -Cuddles & Chill Time: I’ll follow their lead, whether they want lap time or prefer solo sunbathing by the window. -Gentle Grooming: Brushing sessions for cats who enjoy a little pampering. Always Included: Local Safety: Wiping paws after walks, checking for ticks, and ensuring plenty of fresh water. Routine Respect: Sticking to their feeding schedule, medication needs (if applicable), and your household rules. All Ages & Personalities: Gentle care for seniors, patience for shy pets, and energetic play to get out the zoomies. I treat every pet as if they’re my own and look forward to giving yours the personalized care that fits Mandarin’s relaxed, friendly community. Let’s make sure your pet feels right at home!

Reliable Pet Sitter in Mandarin
Pet care experience
As a lifelong dog lover and trusted sitter for family and friends, I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes. Whether your pup is a tiny adventurer or a gentle giant, I’ll ensure safe, structured walks (and always clean up afterward it’s part of being a responsible neighbor!). I prioritize routines, reinforce training basics, and adapt to your dog’s energy level, whether they want a brisk walk or a cozy couch day. With experience handling everything from playful puppies to laid-back seniors, I’ll treat your dog like family and keep you updated with peace-of-mind photos and messages. I am currently a graduate student at UNF in the CMHC program of Brooks College.

Reviews
Sarah always spoils our fur babies. They lose their minds with excitement when they see her. It makes leaving them behind a little easier on us and they are actually happy to see us go!
Always the best! Our pups are eternally spoiled and loved by Sarah when we are away.
I love how Sarah works with us and loves our pups while we are away.
Our pups were SO excited when Sarah walked in the house. They love her so much!
