Highlights
Pet care experience
From Vet Tech to Trusted Pet Sitter
I have a background in veterinary technology and extensive hands-on animal care experience, including administering medications and supporting pets with special needs. I’ve cared for many of my own animals and volunteered with animal rescues abroad. With a flexible schedule alongside my work as a mountain guide, I’m reliable, attentive, and comfortable caring for pets of all ages and medical needs.

Sarah was awesome. I really needed help in a pinch and she came through. My little pup had a great time her. She was so flexible with her time as well.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I care for every pet as if they were my own—calmly, attentively, and with safety as the top priority. I follow your routines closely, maintain a clean and low-stress environment, and provide plenty of enrichment, affection, and exercise as appropriate. With my veterinary technology background, I’m comfortable administering medications and caring for pets with special needs, and I always monitor behavior and health closely so small issues never become big ones.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day with your pet is centered on attentive care, structure, and plenty of affection. Mornings start with unrushed feeding, medication if needed, and a calm check-in to make sure everyone is happy and healthy. From there, we tailor the day to your pet’s personality—whether that means engaging playtime, enrichment activities, a relaxing walk, or simply companionship for pets who prefer a quieter pace. Throughout the day, I maintain consistent routines, provide regular updates, and ensure your pet feels secure in their environment. There’s always time for one-on-one attention, mental stimulation, and comfort—because pets deserve more than just supervision. Evenings wind down with dinner, any required care, and a peaceful settling-in routine so your pet ends the day relaxed and content. Think of it as professional care with the warmth of a trusted friend—your pet is safe, understood, and genuinely enjoyed.
