Pet care experience

Happy Pets. 💕 Peace of Mind.

Your pet deserves more than a quick potty break. They deserve thoughtful, attentive care that makes their day a little brighter! ☀️ I’m a lifelong animal lover with 20+ years of experience in animal rescue, fostering, pet sitting, and dog ownership. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and needs, from newborn puppies to seniors and those with medical conditions. I treat every pet with the same thoughtfulness I’d want for my own. Whether that means adjusting the pace of their walk, playing their favorite game, scratching just the right spot, or offering comfort during a storm, I’ll tailor each visit to your pet’s needs. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and make every visit a special part of their day! 💕

I could not recommend Sarah enough! My two Boston Terriers are kind of needy little dudes. But Sarah absolutely went above and beyond to make sure each of their needs were met and they got all the quality time they could ask for! Thank you so much for all your help, Sarah!!

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!!!

Sarah watched my rescue lab mix years ago whenever I went out of town. As a puppy, she was incredibly high-energy and always looking for trouble. She loved chewing things, testing boundaries, and would make a run for the front door if given the chance. Sarah did a wonderful job keeping her active, out of trouble, and safe. She was patient, dependable, and always attentive, even when my dog was determined to create a little chaos. I always had complete peace of mind knowing she was in Sarah’s care.
