Compassionate care for your furbaby
Pet care experience
My husband and I are animal lovers and experienced dog parents. We recently lost our sweet dog Kylo to cancer and are broken-hearted. We want to give back before adopting again by opening our home to quality pet care. We have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. We have experience caring for sick and injured dogs. We have a quiet house (no kids or other animals at the moment) with a partially fenced yard (we want to fully fence as soon as we can) and plenty of places to walk and play.
Reviews
Sarah was the best as always!
Sarah is wonderful! She is always reachable and sends great updates and photos while we are away. Our dog loves both her and her husband. They are such kind souls and love our dog like their own. I cannot say enough good things about Sarah! I know our pup is counting down the days until she gets another “vacation” at Sarah’s place!
Sarah and her husband are hands down the best two people we have ever left our rescue pup with! Traveling abroad made me nervous to be so far away, but Sarah sent great updates and was super quick to respond (even with the large time difference). I could see from the photos that our girl was so happy and relaxed which made me feel great. I am looking forward to leaving our girl with them again (and I know she can’t wait to go back too!).
Our usually timid and nervous pup, Rooney, loved his stay with Sarah! She was extremely attentive to his needs, provided us with tons of updates and photos, and we he was sad to leave when we picked him up! We would definitely recommend Sarah, and Rooney would love to stay with her again!

Safety, trust & environment
We have a partially fenced yard and plenty of toys, treats and routine healthcare items. We have a big dog bed and many blankets and towels. Our guest bed and the couch are both up for grabs too! But we don't allow dogs into our own bed. We do not have a crate.

Information Sarah K. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know as much as possible about your dog before they come. Preferences, likes/dislikes, pet peeves, how you are training them, any behavior issues, what startles or sets him/her off, any health issues, and normal energy level.
A typical day
Love to go on good walks in our neighborhood and local parks. Playing in the yard and using treat puzzle toys for enrichment. Also like being couch potatoes and watching Netflix!

Availability
I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I'm happy to take frequent potty breaks, walks and snack breaks to help break up the monotony of work!
