Pet care experience

Experienced, quality care

I have been happily petsitting for ten years. I love and appreciate animals of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I am good at directing dogs on a leash with patience using the start-stop method if need be. I meet dogs where they're at by coming into their acquaintance with open body language and a ready-to-be-sniffed attitude. It is my absolute pleasure to connect with and care for animals. I am regularly available and flexible for boardings, sittings, day-care, and meet & greets during most all times of the day including evenings, weekends, and holidays.

Boarding • Sep 20, 2026

This was my first time leaving my puppy with anyone other than my mom or friends. Sarah was great! She communicated throughout the week, and sent me pictures along the way, ensuring I was updated on how my pup was doing. He clearly had a great time, because he barked and whined a bit when we left! I would definitely use Sarah again.

Schedule

I am currently petsitting full-time! When boarding, I like to have 1-2 animals staying with me at a time. I also take the dogs I am sitting or boarding on other dog walks around the city, so your pup is guaranteed plentiful exercise should they need it.

Safety, trust & environment

I keep my home pet-ready! I have an XL dog bed, a litter box, and food/water bowls. I also have my own leashes that I am most comfortable using to keep dogs safe. And rest assured, I am well-trained to not leave food on counters.

A typical day

For dogs, I typically carve out space for two longer walks(30-60min)/day and two short potty breaks. When dogs can handle additional stimulus, I love taking them everywhere with me albeit other dog walks, errands, or time with friends. When a dog may be experiencing anxiety or reactiveness I can tailer my schedule to be more centered around my home.

I would love to schedule a meet and greet before our first booking! Along with hanging out and catching a vibe, I will ask questions like: What is their feeding/walking/medication schedule? Can they be left home alone? If so, for how long? Do they get along well with other people/animals? How much exercise do they require? I look forward to hearing from you!
