Pet care experience
I'm here to make some extra cash while I'm completing nutrition internship rotations. I was a vet tech for small animal and wildlife for a few years out of undergrad but now I work in human nutrition. I currently have a flexible schedule and would be happy to make your life a bit easier by taking care of your animals. I don't have enough space for drop-offs but we can discuss in-home doggy daycare if a drop-in visit just isn't enough. I’m happy to integrate your pets life and mine while I watch them. Very open to take dogs to cafes, the beach and on hikes with my dog. I can also care for special needs dogs/ cats, whether they are a bit grumpy or need injections or fluids or some extra tlc due to advanced age or disability. I use Rover as a dog owner myself and I know how important it is to trust whoever has your dogs- so let's chat and see if we are a good fit!
Reviews
Sarah was wonderful. She was incredibly caring, attentive and communicative while we were away. She was able to provide our very old dog with the love and care that she needed.
Our pet sitter fell through at the last minute for Thanksgiving, and we were lucky enough to find Sarah. She took great care of our pets and even let them spend the holiday with her family. The owner of our local coffee shop also told us today that Sarah brought the dogs to the shop with her and she was so good and sweet with them that he thought they were her dogs. She also made sure our cat was fed and taken care of. I definitely recommend having her watch your pets!
Sarah K. was exceptional. My daughter was taken to the hospital unexpectedly and Sarah came to the rescue. Not only did she take great care of the animals who absolutely loved her, she straightened up the house and did the dishes so my daughter would not come home to a mess. She sent great pictures, I could tell the animals were happy. She was a ray of sunshine during a very stressful time. I HIGHLY recommend her.
Sarah has taken care of my dog many times. He is a nervous little guy and she is always very patient and loving with him. I have seen her work with other dogs in her care; She has a wonderful demeanor with dogs and is always willing to work with the needs of the pooches she is watching. Would recommend instantly!

Information Sarah K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know: - favorite things to do/places to go - are they dog park ready? - do certain things bother them or incite aggression (not a problem but I do need to know!) - Are they on a tight schedule or are you lax with feeding and walking times? - What are their reactions to children, puppies and cats? - are they self-regulating eaters or are they prone to eat too much/weird stuff? - No breed preferences!
A typical day
Depends on your doggos preferences! I'm always down for some foggy morning coastal hikes! But if we end up in TJ, tanked on too much carne asada, it will definitely be your dogs fault.
