Pet care experience

pets are people too

You can trust me with your fur baby. I've been caring for dogs and cats for over 15 years. That's not just experience, it's a relationship with animals that I've built slowly and gladly. At home, I have a one-year-old cat who matches whatever energy the day brings. She's curious, playful, and always exploring. If you want adventure, she'll hike beside you. If you want stillness, she'll curl up while you read. She reminds me every day that the best care isn't just about feeding and walking. It's about presence. Being there. Really being there. That's what I offer your pet. Full love. Full attention. Just as anyone wants to be. They're not just a pet, they're also independent creature that we should all co-exist with.

I have seen firsthand how caring and responsible Sarah is with animals, and she would make an excellent pet sitter. She genuinely loves all types of animals and has real, hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets. I’ve personally watched her dog-sit her sister’s husky, where she handled a high-energy breed with patience, attention, and confidence. Sarah is especially wonderful with cats—I’ve seen how attentive and gentle she is when caring for other people’s cats, and she takes exceptional care of her own kitten. She always makes sure pets are safe, comfortable, and loved. Sarah treats every animal as if it were her own, and any pet owner would be lucky to have her care for their pet.

Schedule

I work from home with a very flexible schedule. So I have plenty of time and energy to take them out for a walk or to play with them. I am also comfortable taking them with me, to parks, to the grocery store, to a cafe etc. I can provide boarding throughout the week so long as I have a heads up notice beforehand.
