Pet care experience
Full disclosure: I’m here to meet your pet. I have a lifetime of experience with creatures great and small, including but not limited to: Pups, pigs (pot-bellies and guinea), chickens, ducks, goats, parakeets, cats of all stripes, hedgehogs, and rabbits and whatever you like! Fur real, I’m an animal lover who would delight in nothing more than showering your pet with affection, attention, and enrichment. I’m not allowed dogs at my current residence, and I would love to care for yours! I have three senior cats and a retired rescued show hedgehog, and am comfortable administering medications. I’m here for your fussy, friendly, furry baby. Gimme a shout, I’m so excited to meet you!
Reviews
Sarah Jo has taken care of our pets regularly over the last decade until she moved to another state. She is a pet mom herself and knows just how to listen to an animals' signals and language. Our cats have always had a special relationship with Sarah Jo because of her ability to connect with them. They always look forward to seeing her and she somehow manages to get a cuddle from even our craziest kitty. She's responsible, timely, thoughtful, and courteous. She follows instructions very well and knows that every animal has a different set of routines and needs to feel happy and healthy. She has experience giving animals extensive medicine in both administering to her own cats and as well as with my cats. She has given my kitties various types of medicines from eye drops to diabetes shots and knows what sort of behaviors to look for in a sick animal. We recently lost our dog, and Sarah Jo's support, compassion, and love was felt even from afar. If I could still have her as my regular pet-sitter, I would in a heartbeat! Whomever gets to work with Sarah Jo is lucky and their animal is even luckier. Highly recommend Sarah Jo!
Sara Jo is an amazing dog walker and house sitter. We are always comfortable when leaving our two small dogs and cat with her when we are away. She is thoughtful and caring with both our animals and home. Additionally, one of our dogs (a corgi) can be leash reactive on walks and has difficulty meeting strangers. She handled this beautifully and he took to her right away. He tends to be our barometer on “good” energy, and it was a relief to know they got along just fine. Would recommend.
Sarah Jo took excellent care of my aging and grumpy-bowelled cockapoo. I'm pretty sure the pup now wants to go home with her and never come back.
Sarah Jo has such an affinity with animals. She is deeply caring as well as reliable, organized, and a great communicator. As a Rover sitter myself and a cat mom, I am very picky about who I trust with my furbaby. Barnaby absolutely LOVES her and I trust her with him implicitly; if she were still local I would be hiring her every time I needed someone to watch him. Highly recommend her for your pet care needs!

I am happy to host small animals- birds/reptiles/rodents. Unfortunately I am not permitted to house dogs. I am centrally located, and love to rollerskate with pups at Audubon or City Park especially.
A typical day
I live for long walks in our beautiful city- I also love to roller-skate with active pups who love to run. We’ll take in the sights, meet new friends, and get our business taken care of.

I am a law student searching for a part-time gig that allows me into the sunlight! I long fur long walks with your pup, or to spend time with your kitty on their turf! My schedule is quite flexible, and I’m just friendly enough to reassure you but won’t cramp your style.
