I am a stay at home mom of two girls that are natural animal lovers too. They are middle school and highschool age. They have a gentle caring spirit with animals too. Just like their mom. I take my dog to the park twice a day to walk or play in the dog park.

Safety, trust & environment

I have partially fenced in back yard with plenty of acres to run or explore on leash. I live on a dead end road in the country with less traffic. My house has always been pet friendly and pets can cuddle with me or my children on the beds and sofa. They are family like us and have free range. For cats I have a door I can keep shut to the living room so they can be safe and still have plenty of room to explore or find soft comfortable hiding spaces. I currently own one dog who is friendly with all other pets but if the other pet feels uncomfortable I have plenty of space to keep separate. I also own two cats that come in and out through their own special area that's all theirs. I have two children that are older and know how to interact gently with animals and love to spoil them. I go to the dog park daily with my dog and enjoy walking with her in the park. Your pet will get plenty of attention, activities and exercise while being in a safe environment.

Information Sarah J. would like to know about your pet

If they get along with other pets and children. If they have any fears or anxiety that I need to look out for. What they love and enjoy. Dietary restrictions. For home visits I will not accept remote door unlock systems. I will only accept home visits with key or access code. I'm sorry for the inconvenience but I have had too many problems and safety concerns with the remote access doors

A typical day

Can take two walks a day and play time at the dog park. Plenty of time to cuddle and rest at home in a comfy pet friendly environment. Lots of room to play fetch and run with children and another dog to play with.

Pet care experience

Ive been an animal lover since I was a child. Making friends with all the pets on my street. Bring home strays I find. Animals feel naturally comfortable with me and can sense my gentle spirit. I can make the most anxious pet feel loved and safe. I have house sit for my coworkers and bosses. To trust me with your pet would be like trusting me with your child. And I treat them just like one of my own. I am looking forward to meeting your pet and making them feel loved and safe.

We made a good decision when we asked Sarah to provide care for our cat. She provided excellent care. She also sent us detailed communication & multiple photos regarding each visit. Thank you, Sarah!
