Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring teacher + Pet Lover = Me!
I am a Rover Star Sitter that has completed over 140 bookings to earn my 5-star rating. I’m always ready to help new clients for pet care in McHenry and surrounding areas, and I have holiday availability! For visits and walks, I have flexible weekday evening and weekend all day availability during the school year. For boarding, my husband and I team up to make sure your pet is well cared for in our home throughout all parts of the day. I’ve loved animals all my life. I grew up with a small shih tzu rescue and then later trained our family’s cockapoo puppy. Throughout high school I helped walk dogs and house sit animals for neighbors and friends. In college I became more experienced with puppy training as I trained 3 puppies for a family I babysat and house sat for their two cats often. Now, I help with dogs and cats regularly between my family and friends, and I’m looking to help more furry friends and people in my area.

Sarah was awesome, was available last minute and our dog loves her! This is my second time booking with her and it’s always a great visit!

Sarah is fantastic! She took great care of our dog. Normally our pup can be difficult to walk and Sarah was very patient with her. We were grateful that our dog was cooperative for her! She is a dog whisperer!

Schedule
If you’re needing pet care, I’m here to help with drop in visits, walks, or boarding in my own home! I am a full time middle school teacher during the school year, so evenings and weekends work best for drop ins and walks. But for holidays and summer breaks, I have more open weekday availability and flexible daytime hours. For boarding, my husband is at home during the day, and one or both of us will be home during the evening.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I always prioritize your pet’s comfort and routine. During each visit, I provide fresh water, meals if needed, potty breaks, and quality playtime, walks, or attention. I closely follow your instructions and will send detailed reports and photos for your peace of mind. If your pet takes medications or has any specific needs, I’m happy to follow your protocols with care and attention. Just let me know what works best for your pet!

A typical day
A typical visit with me includes potty breaks or walks, fresh food and water as needed, clean-up, affection and playtime, and a detailed report from me with photos to show my check-in with your pet. Whether your pup loves fetch or your cat wants a sunny perch, I’ll tailor each visit to their personality and routine.
