A Family of Paws with Love and Care

Pet care experience

Throughout my life animals have always been a big passion of mine. I have owned and worked with animals of all kinds, from snakes, bears, lions, meerkats, dogs, cats, racoons, birds, lizards, fish, hamsters, and many many more. I have worked for the San Diego Zoo and Wild Animal Park along side my mother throughout my childhood as well as owning a bunny, 2 dogs, an iguana, a bird and a fish pond. As an adult I dedicated 5 years to the Charleston Animal Society Shelter as both an adoption rep and an intake rep. That was the most rewarding and difficult job I have ever had. But through all those experiences I have learned how to handle emergencies, behavior issues, and all the kisses and slobber I can handle. I currently have 4 dogs that range from a 140lb German Shepherd/Great Dane to a 8lb Chihuahua/Shih tzu who are all rescue babies and all of them are well trained and spoiled rotten! I am currently home all day but in the unlikely event that I am not here there is always someone home to love on your pup! Over the weekends and holidays we usually stay around the house and play with the puppies in the backyard or take them to get snowcone's in the summer. I have plenty of space and live in a great neighborhood that allows for long walks to the park that is right down the road or big rooms with large doggie beds to snuggle in when its cold outside. I am flexible and usually can work around whatever schedule you need! I currently live in a large house with a big front porch and a large fenced in backyard. I live less than a mile away from Timrod Park and often take walks or golf cart rides with our puppies to play at the park when its warm outside. I have a large mud room right off the kitchen with plenty of space to play around if you prefer your pet to be away from my babies. I also have two large and two small crates if your normal routine is to crate when away. I have lots and lots of soft and warm doggie beds and treats of all shapes and sizes designed for any dog, from sensitive tummies, and seniors to puppies. If you are looking for your pet to just be one of the family and lounge on the couch and sit at my feet while I make dinner or play in the many baskets of toys along side my pups I am more than happy to welcome them that way too! I am professionally trained and have a lot of experience in dog training so if you are looking for some education while you're away or on a daily or weekly basis in my home or yours I can also provide that service as well! Throughout my entire life, both my parents and my little family, always strive to provide a safe and comfortable environment as well as educating and involving our 7 year old little boy with training tips to ensure that our fur babies and our family (as well as any fur baby that wanders up on our porch) live as comfortably and loved as possible together. Any form of loving environments you prefer I can offer your loving pet! I am available daily. I am a stay at home mom and dog mom! So whatever your needs are I can work them out without any issue! I have a large house with plenty of room to play and a large fenced in backyard! We have toys and beds in every corner of the house and a large room in the back in case your pup needs space of their own!

Thankfully Sarah had time available on a holiday weekend for Jojo while I was traveling and decided to take in a NASCAR race at the last minute! Will definitely be back when I’m in the area again!

This was the first time I used this service, I had a last minute unplanned trip. Sarah accepting our booking that was same day request and communicated with me which helped me feel comfortable bringing my dogs to her house. Drop off and pick up as planned went smooth, the dogs seemed to have a great time. Thank you Sarah we will diffidently use your services in the future.

Information Sarah G. would like to know about your pet

I just want a good description of your dogs daily routine. I think its important to make them as comfortable as possible and keep things as normal as possible so the adjustment without you being there isn't as difficult on them. Of course I want to meet you and your furry love before they come to stay and make sure I know of any medications, special foods, and treats that they need when they come stay with us!

A typical day

I live less than a mile away from Timrod park where we walk our pups to or ride the golf cart! We have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run and play fetch and lots and lots of toys in the house to play and sleep with! I also have a couple reigning tug of war champs in the house!
