Dog musher, prev. Vet tech, owner

Pet care experience

I know a lot about dogs and have taken care of them since 16 (now 34). I’ve worked anywhere from 248 wild sled dogs to vet care to grooming. I have my own. Dogs are my life and I love them. You can trust me with your dog, no problem. I am good with all dogs, but tend to be more compatible with ones that aren't the smallest breeds. However if they are over 75 lbs and injured I cannot carry them. Otherwise happy to help, but please be specific if you are particular. If not, know they’re in good hands. I can walk, play or just love on them. Please make sure I have specific instructions on how much to feed them though. The days I have available, I am not in a hurry, so let's discuss how much time YOU would like spent with them. I would charge by the hour then, but I am available. On the weekends I am very busy and the other days not available I am teaching ballet. Please understand, if I take care of your dog, I want to love it like my own! Please let me know what they like, their favorite toy, their calorie limit, any injuries or potential injuries, if you're okay with me taking them to the dog park--and with that how they are with other dogs. I want to love and dote on them! They are very relational creatures and I'm sure you are reaching out so they are sufficiently loved and cared for.

I have known Sarah for over 25 years. She is the most astute of all animal people I've ever known; including veterinarians. She reminds me of Temple Grandin (author of 'Animals Make Us Human') when it comes to how she understands dogs. Like children know I'm a dad, dogs know Sarah is their friend. She speaks to them without speaking (and in baby-dog-voice when speaking; like each animal is an old friend). I highly recommend the care of canines to this unique human!

I've rarely met someone who knows and loves dogs as much as, and as well as, my friend Sarah. She loves each of them as her own (including her own) and they flock to her like a dog whisperer. You can really trust her to love them this way and be a punctual business lady too. Definitely hire her!

Sarah Grace is a wonderful pet keeper and dog walker. She has an extensive knowledge about dogs, and treats all dogs as she would her own. She also knows how to train dogs and they really seem to like her. She is dependable and reliable and treats animals like family. I would recommend her to anyone for all pet sitting and walking needs.

Information Sarah-Grace S. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know if I need to feed them, how much, if they have dog treats and can I give them to him/her to get us interacting, if they are shy or have a background of abuse and what the owner does to comfort them, how they best respond to a commanding voice, if there is anything in the house that needs to be out of their sight before I go, how often they need to use the bathroom, any medical conditions at all and if they need their medicine (I can do this for them after we've gained rapport). Let me know if you think of anything else. And let's discuss all of this when we meet please! Can't wait to meet your dog!

A typical day

If your neighborhood is walk friendly then let's walk there! Otherwise, if he/she is comfortable with car rides, there is a fantastic dog park at the Auburn Ravine. We can play fetch! Or, if they are low key, I can cuddle with them. Cuddling's my favorite, lol.
