Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to stay or drop in to my client's home. I find that the dog is more familiar/comfortable this way too. I am happy to do a test run so that everyone feels comfortable/familiar!

Information Sarah K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know how your dog acts around people (especially new people) and other dogs. My own family dog experiences some anxiety when my parents go out of town so I’m used to that.

A typical day

We’ll go on walks, play with toys, and give plenty of belly scratches! I’ll stick to any routine you have already established with your dog.

Pet care experience

My family always had a pet dog. As a kid I would feed and walk dogs in the neighborhood while they were out of town. As I grew older I would stay at family or friend's homes if they went out of town. I'm in search of a similar situation in South Bend - dog walking and light housework included!

Sarah did a great job while we were on vacation. She sent regular updates and pictures, took Maui to daycare. We came home and the dogs were happy! That’s all we could ask for! Would definitely recommend!
