Pet care experience

Experienced, attentive animal lover

I will treat your fur baby like my own, they will be spoiled! I adore all animals and look forward to meeting yours. My day job is taking care of other peoples horses and training them. I understand the importance of trusting the person who takes care of your four legged family members! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, dog walked and done cat visits since I was young. Boarders must get along with cats (I have one, he’s friendly to everyone)

Sarah did an amazing job with my two kitties. She was super communicative and clear on when she'd be arriving at the house and what her schedule was like. She sent tons of pictures of the cats and was super responsive when I'd text. It really helped us be less nervous on a week long vacation that we had someone responsible and nice at the house to look after the cats. I could tell by the pictures she sent that they were relaxed and happy. We will be using her again for sure! The peace of mind helped us enjoy our trip without worrying about our babies.

Sarah was punctual and Leland loved his time with her. He was exhausted when we got home :)

Sarah took such amazing care of our dog Whiskey while we were out of town for a week!!! She followed the instructions we left perfectly, sent regular and detailed updates and pictures, and treated Whiskey like he was her own!! She also went above and beyond to keep our place super clean and cared for!! We would absolutely have Sarah back to watch Whiskey in the future!!

Sarah is one of the kindest, most diligent pet caregivers I’ve ever experienced. She has a heart for dogs and a very high level of patience and understanding. She is reliable and my Boxer and Staffy absolutely love her! Highly recommended to anyone who is worried about who you leave your pets care needs to. She’s absolutely amazing! Thanks Sarah! -Lori D.

Sarah does an absolute great job watching my dog Bailey. It was fantastic seeing how Bailey immediately liked Sarah. My dog doesn't usually warm up to people but, when he met her I knew right away that everything would be fine and they have a great connection and she does a really good job with him.

Pets

A typical day

I treat every animal as an individual. If you have a snuggle bug, I'm happy to relax with them and give extra good scratches. If you have a more active dog, chances for exercise and stimulation can be found anywhere! I am a pro at playing with cats, I've even taught mine to fetch!

over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only

I want to follow your pets normal routine as closely as possible. If they like to play fetch, tug, hide-n-seek, etc. Do they like brisk walks, or more of a leisurely "sniff" walk?
