About Sarah J.

Skills

6 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience with crates, fences, as well as leashes to make sure your companion stays safe when outside! Since I have family members with allergens at my home, I will be unable to care for your pets in my home, however I will make sure to take utmost care with your beloved friends wherever I may be!

Information Sarah J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, or preferences for your pet, such as if they're relaxed, or if they enjoy going on runs/walks, or if they are nervous around new people!

A typical day

I love to play with dogs and may walk with them to exercise them! Or, if your dog is of the calmer sort, I can also be relaxed around them. With cats, I can use small toys for them to chase if they enjoy it!

In all the time I’ve known Sarah she’s always been a reliable person. If she commits to something I know she’ll do it to the best of her ability. She has experience with all manner of pets. She’s never shied away from a task, and I don’t think she’s ever felt fear around large dogs, angry cats or any unusual situation.

Leaving our pets behind when we need to travel is always nerve-wracking, but this time, thanks to Sarah, it was a breeze! She showered our pups with cuddles and playtime tailored to their personalities. Echo (the diva) got extra pampering, while Sadie (the shy girl) was given the time she needed to warm up, then got extra cuddles. Even our cat Toivo, notoriously finicky, warmed up to Sarah. We received updates with pictures, showing our fur-babies enjoying walks, snuggles, and playtime. Every message calmed any lingering worry. Beyond pet care, Sarah went the extra mile by watering our plants, bringing in the mail, and even leaving our home spotless! Upon our return, our pets were relaxed, healthy, and clearly well-loved. They were barely fazed by our absence, thanks to Sarah's great care. I highly recommend this responsible young lady to anyone who needs their pets well-cared for!

I’ve known Sarah to be incredibly eager when it comes to interacting with animals. I’ve seen this firsthand when they were interacting with my cats! One of my cats, Joey, is rather shy and avoids strangers, however he seemed very calm when interacting with her, and even let Sarah pet him! Overall, Sarah seems to have a good sense of how to handle animals, as well as interacting with the more fearful ones.
