It’s beyond love, it’s empathy 🐶🐱

Pet care experience

I have had a lifelong love for animals from an early age, which started with cats, dogs, fish, birds, and horses. For as long as I can remember, I've fed stray animals and provided them with love and care. My love for animals, especially dogs, and cats, extends beyond just admiring their individual cuteness and personalities, but having compassion for them. I believe that my empathic nature stems from my upbringing, and I owe it to my fur baby, who passed away shy of 16 years old. Pets are part of the family, so it is essential that you, the pet parent do your research on who is suitable for your pet(s) and their needs. I have experience administering oral medications. I am comfortable with all breeds and all temperaments, and your pet(s)' stay/care is tailored to meet their individual needs. I will care for your pet(s) as if they were my own. This is more than just a job for me; it is a way of life. As part of my service, you will receive quality photos, videos, and updates regarding your pet while he or she is under my care, but most importantly, I will treat your pet with kindness and respect.

Sarah really showed great concern and care for my cats and was very descriptive in her emails to me while I was away. Sarah has been the best pet sitter I’ve had. My cats really liked her and she just took such great care of them. My cats were in excellent hands, I am truly satisfied. I want to thank you for taking outstanding care of M & N.

Sarah was a wonderful cat sitter and went above and beyond to make sure our cats were well taken care of. She was communicative, attentive and highly professional. We felt totally comfortable relaxing and knowing our cats were in good hands.

When my wife and I wanted to go away for our third anniversary we were worried where to leave our little but not so little guy. Charlie Boy is our 7 year old golden retriever who has all the energy in the world. I reached out to Sarah amongst other dog sitters on here and Sarah was a fit. My wife and I appreciated her approach, she seemed very loving and her attention to detail is convinced us she would be the one. She asked us about allergies, food preference, play preference and even asked us where his vet just in case of emergency . She tested out his level of separation anxiety and walked him around our block ( which I thought was genius ) Charlie loved her as did we. Lastly she made sure to text us pictures and that made us feel comfortable and confident she was the right pick. Thank you so much Sarah, we appreciate you !

For the past two years, Sarah has taken care of our dog Harley for as long as a week at a time. It is a comfort knowing that he is in good hands when we are away. Sarah's rates are very reasonable. She treats Harley as if he were her own. I highly recvomend Sarah's services. She is reliable, trustworthy and loving. It is a comfort knowing we can rely on her when we can't be there for Harley.
