I love going for walks along the quiet neighborhood I live, but I love to hear your dog’s favorite place to go! I aim to make sure your dog has the best time to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

Pet care experience

My name is Sarah, I am thirty years old and I’ve been taking care of dogs for over 15 years now! I have taken care of my parents dog when I was younger and now I have my own golden retriever mix named Max. I have loved taking care of dogs in the many different places I have lived! I love taking dogs for long walks, playing outside and taking them on hikes! I have experience house sitting and walking a variety of different size dogs and various temperaments. Dogs are always allowed on the furniture and can sleep on the bed at night. I provide all the love and care your dog needs while you are gone! I also provide as many updates and photos as you like because I know how important your dog is to your family!

Philly absolutely loves visiting Sarah and her sweet dog Max! Philly always leaps out of the car when we pull up and is content and happy at the end of the day. Sarah is so communicative and I know Philly is getting spoiled while she’s there. Thank you Sarah and Max ❤️ Philly can’t wait for another playdate.
