Highlights
Pet care experience
A Golden Retriever in Human Form!
I grew up with both dogs and cats and have always felt happiest when surrounded by animals! I have several years of pet-sitting experience caring for both large and small dogs, as well as cats. I enjoy long walks and am happy to follow your pet's usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or simply having company, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care while you're away.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routines, and preferences, so I take the time to get to know each pet and learn what makes them feel comfortable and secure. I will carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, training, and household rules to ensure consistency while you're away. While I love giving pets plenty of affection and attention, I also respect their boundaries and individual needs. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels cared for and at home.
Ratings and reviews
I would highly recommend Sarah and trust her completely to care for your furry family members. She is compassionate, responsible, and has a genuine love for all animals. I've seen firsthand how naturally she connects with dogs, her gentle, caring demeanor helps them feel comfortable, safe, and at ease almost immediately. What makes Sarah truly special is her kind heart, positive attitude, and dedication to providing the highest level of care. She will treat every pet as if they were her own, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, affection, and thoughtful care. Any pet owner would have peace of mind knowing their beloved companion is in Sarah's hands.
Sarah is great with dogs. Every time we go for a walk and see a dog she will always ask to pet it. She has grown up with dogs all her life. She loves talking them on long walks.
Sarah is a wonderful with animals. She enjoys pets of all sizes and shapes! I have always known Sarah to be responsible - keeping her commitments first and foremost. Sarah is dependable and even as a young pre-teen was walking dogs and dog sitting for days on end. She is always my first choice for pet sitting my two precious dogs.
Sarah has helped us numerous times with our dog Abby. Duties have included taking her on many walks, boarded at her house and our own, always sends great photo's. We trust her completely and will continue to use her as needed. She treats Abby as if she was her own. Abby gets excited to see Sarah!

Schedule
I work full-time for the University of Rochester and have a hybrid schedule, so I'm only in the office two days a week (Tuesdays and Wednesdays). The rest of the week, I work from home and have plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your furry family members! On weekends, my schedule is also very flexible. I enjoy golfing, but it's easy for me to adjust my plans to accommodate each pet's unique needs and routine. My goal is to make sure your pet receives the attention, care, and companionship they deserve while you're away.
