Caring for pets fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work and study remotely most of the week. This allows me to spend plenty of time with pets, whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just giving them companionship throughout the day. I schedule visits, walks, or overnight stays around my work and study hours to ensure consistent, reliable care. This routine allows me to provide personalized attention, follow each pet’s schedule, and maintain a safe, comfortable environment in their home. ✨

Safety, trust & environment

I provide personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. I follow your pet’s routine closely — feeding, walking, playtime, and rest — to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I provide plenty of attention and companionship, and I’m experienced with administering oral medications and caring for multiple pets at once. When caring for pets in their home, I respect your space by keeping everything tidy, bringing in mail, watering plants, and ensuring your home stays secure. I send daily photo updates and communicate promptly so you can relax knowing your pets are well cared for. My goal is to create a stress-free, enjoyable experience for both pets and their owners, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. 😊

Information Sarah J. would like to know about your pet

Before a booking, it’s helpful to know your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medical needs (including medications), favorite toys, and any behavior quirks or anxieties. I also like to know house rules, such as where pets are allowed, where they sleep, and any special instructions for walks or playtime. Having this information ahead of time helps me provide consistent, personalized care and ensures your pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. 🙂‍↔️

A typical day

I love keeping pets engaged, happy, and active! With dogs, this might include walks, playtime with their favorite toys, gentle training exercises, or simply cuddles and belly rubs for pups who prefer a calmer pace. For cats, I provide interactive play with toys, cozy snuggle time, and exploring safe spaces in the home. I always tailor activities to each pet’s personality, energy level, and preferences, making sure they feel loved, stimulated, and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Sarah — a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet sitter who treats every furry friend like my own. 🐾☺️ I’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs needing extra attention. I’m experienced with administering oral meds and I’m happy to care for multiple pets at once. Whether it’s sticking to a specific routine, going on long walks, or providing plenty of playtime and cuddles, I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work and study remotely most of the week, which means your pet will get plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I offer house sitting, dog walks, and drop-in visits, and I treat every home with the same care and respect as my own. You can expect: • 🐶 Consistent, personalized care for your pet • 📸 Daily photo updates and quick communication • 🏡 A tidy home and peace of mind while you’re away I proudly serve the greater Seattle area, including Bothell, Mill Creek, Lake Forest Park, Kenmore, Shoreline, and Greenlake. I’d love to meet your pup and make sure they’re well cared for while you’re away! ✨

Sarah did a great job of looking after my pup while I was away! I would highly recommend her.

Sarah is an amazing dog sitter. I went away on vacation for two weeks. She stayed in my apartment while watching my 1 year old labradoodle! To say they became best friends is an understatement! Thomas loved her and she kept my apartment cleaner than I left it. She has watched Thomas overnight from time to time and is always on time! I highly recommend her to anyone that needs someone that they can truly trust with their fur-baby. 10 out of 10 recommend!
