Availability

I accept bookings on a first-come basis, so early requests are recommended. My standard operating hours are 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, and ask that all service start/end times fall within this window unless otherwise arranged. In-your-home overnight care typically includes overnight care, one mid-day check-in and dinner drop-in. If additional time is needed, happy to discuss a custom plan during the meet and greet. As mentioned previously, there are additional high-rise/complex fees and you are expected to pay for parking. For pets needing more specialized or continuous care, I offer 24/7 support on a case-by-case basis, subject to availability. Rates for consistent care start at $20 per hour, with a 4-hour minimum, and rates vary depending on the level of care required. 90 minutes a-day out of the home is expected per 24-hor period. I offer optional add-on services such as light plant care, mail and package collection, and light housework, all available for an additional fee.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety, comfort, and routine come first. I follow your instructions, keep detailed communication during the stay, and send updates with photos. I administer oral/topical medications, support senior dogs, reinforce crate schedules, and handle pets with anxiety or special requirements. My goal is to ensure your pet feels relaxed, understood, and cared for while you’re away. Drop-in's are based on your schedule and cover up to 30-miutes from door-to-door of my vehicle after parking, if additional time is needed like a full 30-minute interactions or more of walking time, please book accordingly. In-home care includes overnight stay, a mid-day drop in and a dinner check-in. Over the years, I’ve cared for hundreds of pets and have earned a strong reputation for: - Reliability & clear communication - Calm, confident animal handling - Respect for routines & home rules - Honesty, transparency, and professionalism Your pet deserves the same level of care they receive when you’re home — and that is exactly what I provide. Also mentioned previously, all indoor cameras should be removed or disabled for my privacy. All indoor cameras that are not disabled, will be covered. Outdoor cameras are permitted. Should an undisclosed camera be found the stay may be terminated.

Pet care experience

I’ve cared for a wide range of animals from dogs and cats to fish, birds, chickens, ducks, quails, rabbits and tortoises. I’m experienced with senior pets and comfortable administering medications (oral and topical only, no IVs). My own journey into pet parenthood began in 2016 when I found a dog wandering the streets. Despite never having pets growing up (aside from a fair-won goldfish!), I had regularly cared for friends’ and family’s pets. I couldn’t leave that pup behind — I brought her home, and we’ve been inseparable ever since. Beyond pet care, for an additional fee, I offer light plant care, mail/package collection, and transportation for grooming or vet appointments, and more. *There will be a high-rise/complex fee (to cover extra time managing elevators, lobby access, package checks, security, stairs, long walks from parking, etc.) ranging $5–$25 per visit for walks and check-in. The pet parent is expected to pay for parking (either by validating parking, reserving guest parking, or reimbursing the sitter) **If you have cameras, all indoor cameras should be removed, turned off or disabled during the stay for my privacy. Any indoor cameras that are not disabled, will be covered. Outdoor cameras are permitted.

Sarah was very responsive to my queries and provided frequent updates and photos of Tashi, which made me feel more comfortable leaving my fur child for an extended period of time. We did have one hiccup where I wasn't able to get in touch with her for a day, but Tashi was fine and all was well.

Sarah was great with our dog while we were gone for a week. She was communicative and reliable. Our dog was in good spirits upon our return and we’d def book her again.
