Happy Pets. Peace of Mind. 💛

Pet care experience

Your pet deserves more than a quick potty break. They deserve to feel safe, happy, and have a little fun! My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing the same thoughtful care I expect for my own dogs, while making each visit enriching for your pet. That level of care is backed by more than 15 years of experience in animal rescue, puppy fostering, pet sitting, and dog ownership. Growing up with a mom who was a vet tech also gave me early hands-on experience with a variety of animals. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and needs, from newborn puppies to senior dogs and pets requiring medication. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and make every visit something they look forward to!

We were so thankful for Sarah’s help while my husband was out of town. She made our lives much easier by visiting our beagle during the workday. Sarah was always on time, quick to communicate, and sent pictures and updates after every visit. We never had to worry and could tell she really cared about our dog. We’ll definitely ask Sarah to help us again!

Sarah took wonderful care of our cat while we were away! Our cat is usually shy and hides from new people, but she came out to greet Sarah, let her pet her, and even posed for photos. After our flight landed, we suddenly realized we forgot to mention our fish tank upstairs. I felt so bad, but Sarah was happy to feed our fish and said it was no problem at all. She was so flexible, reliable, accommodating, and a great communicator. Thank you, Sarah!!!

Sarah regularly helps with our senior dog, and I don’t think we could leave him in better hands. As our boy gets older, he needs medication and a little extra patience. Leaving him is never easy. From the moment Sarah stepped in, we knew he was safe. She made sure every medication was given exactly as instructed, kept us updated, and treated him with so much love. When we came home, he was happy and clearly well cared for.

Sarah watched my Jack Russell Terrier while I was away, and she was fantastic. My dog is obsessed with playing fetch and has more energy than most, and Sarah made sure she got plenty of playtime…and water! Sarah also sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. It was easy to see that my pup was having a great time. I’d happily trust Sarah to watch her again!!!
