Information Sarah J. would like to know about your pet

Energy level so I can account for time! Exercise routine, whether they’d be happy curled up next to me while I work or are more high energy.

A typical day

I live near Meridian Hill/Malcolm X park which is a great place to take dogs to play or relax - and I love going on long walks with them!

Location

Pets

Grad student & pet lover

Pet care experience

I do all sorts of pet sitting, but specialize in small dogs. I have experience caring for older dogs (and big personalities), giving medication, and handling separation anxiety. Recently adopted a chihuahua who is very classic chihuahua but does like other dogs - makes her more confident!

Sarah was so wonderful with our senior pup! She was very responsive and so sweet and caring with our dog. We will definitely work with her again.
