Pet care experience
I love dogs and all animals. My partner and I are planning to adopt a greyhound later this year. I grew up with dogs and have 16 years of dog-care experience. I am always borrowing friends’ and family’s dogs to take to the park. Both my partner and I would love more dogs in our lives, which is why I joined this site. I would love the opportunity to get to know your dog. I have a one bedroom apartment in a pet-friendly apartment complex. The complex has plenty of greenspace and even has a lighted walking trail along a little creek for quicker walks. There are a variety of parks within walking distance of my apartment where pets can play. The Mountlake Terrace Off-Leash Dog Park is a 5 minute drive or a 20 minute walk away from my apartment. There is also a pet store and a vet clinic .5 miles from my apartment. I am an attorney so by nature I am responsible and very detail-oriented. I will follow any directions for dog care that you provide me. Most importantly, I know that pets are truly a part of the family and should be treated with the utmost care and love!
Reviews
For the almost 20 years that I have known Sarah I have constantly observed several things; her strong ethics and dedication to her professional life; her happy can-do attitude; and her love for absolutely all four legged creatures. My quirky little Australian Shepherd, Hanna, is my whole world, and I trust very few people to take care of her. Sarah is one of those very few individuals as I know that Hanna is being cared for, spoilt, and loved while I am gone.
Sarah is an animal lover from way back! She grew up in a home with both a dog and a cat and always loved playing with our dog on family visits. Now as an adult it's the same caring relationship with our crazy border collie. She is the only one who can brush his teeth!!! She has taken care of him occasionally now that we are in the Seattle area and both seem quite satisfied and happy upon our return. If you have met Sarah you know your pet will get some good exercise! I recommend Sarah whole heartedly!
Sarah is the woman you want taking care of your dog. She is an animal lover through and through; she is drawn to them as they are to her. Sarah is very responsible and truly cares for animals, going above and beyond minimum care-giving requirements. She even interacts well with my german shepherd (who doesn't get along with everyone). Rest assured your dog will receive premium care with Sarah. She will treat your dog with love and care, as if it were her own.
I have known Sarah as the most compassionate and caring person for several years, and she comes very highly recommended. She consistently goes out of her way to help take care of, walk, feed, babysit, train, comb, snuggle, and socialize not only my dog, but any dog that she comes into contact with. I have known her as a very loyal and dependent individual, she has always been very involved and concerned with my dogs dietary restrictions and takes that into account when giving him treats and snacks. I have always trusted Sarah to come watch Tucker if I've been out of town or just working long days, normally when I come back they are snuggled up on the couch sleeping. At this point I'm not sure who appreciates it more, me or Tucker : )
