Your pet's home away from home!

Pet care experience

I have experience with a vast array of species--dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, fish, rats, hamsters, rabbits, some horses, and so on. I've traveled with animals, having to stop occasionally for bathroom breaks for them and such. Friends and family have asked me many times to pet-sit for them. I can take your pet to the groomers, vet appointments, dog parks, play dates. I can bathe them, feed them, play with them, take them to parks, clean their messes, anything you might like! I am comfortable with dogs of any size and age, as long as they are friendly with children and other dogs! I also have experience with older dogs with several medical issues. Rest assured, if your pet is in my care, it will be well looked after and cared for, knowing that it is safe and loved! I have a full-time job Mondays-Fridays from 7:30am-5pm. I am available most weekends and can care for your pet in the mornings before work and in the evening after work during the week. I will not be able to stay during the day, but I do still accept boarding and house-sitting requests--among the other services, as well--as long as you're okay with me being gone for work during the day! In my home: I have 2 very friendly dogs: a Bernese Mountain Dog/Poodle mix, and a Sheltie to keep your fur baby company! I have a pool and a fenced yard and can easily crate your pet if needed. I live with my two nephews, an 8-year-old and a 2-year-old, but I can always keep your pet in a private room if needed! Your pet does not have to come in contact with my nephews or my doggos if you would prefer that:) In your home: I will ensure that your home is just as it was before I arrived there! Any mess your pet might make while I am there, I will clean and take care of. I will not go into any rooms that are not necessary for me to go into. I can bring your mail inside your home while you're away and take the trash out on trash days, etc. I will not answer the phone if it rings unless you specifically tell me to answer and take any messages. I will respect your privacy and honor the trust you have given me by allowing me into your home, should you do that. I can assure you that you will be satisfied with the care I give to your pet and with my integrity in or out of your home!

Sarah is amazing, I’ve used her at least 4 times in the past 2 months. She’s always willing to keep Ace even last minute. She has great communication skills and Ace loves her! I will definitely use Sarah ANYTIME I need to board my pup! Thank you Sarah

Sarah came in a saved the day! It was a last minute trip & boarding was full. She took care of everything when it came to my pup! I will definitely be using her again!

Sarah was wonderful. Our dog was very happy when we came back and we will definitely seek her out again! Very communicative, no concerns while we were away.

Sarah is very sweet and communicated in a timely manner. She was willing to stick with the commitment even when she was called in to a new job! Congrats! The house was nice and in order upon arriving back at home and our animals were healthy and happy to see us return! Thanks, Sarah!

Information Sarah M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any medical, dietary, or behavioral needs or limitations. Also, it is important to inform me of any history of aggression. Does your pet chew on things other than its toys? Things of that nature. Any preferences you may have, such as "no cages," is also important for me to know, as well as eating and sleeping habits/routine.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your pet physically and mentally. That can include training--should you prefer me to keep up any training regimes you have started with them--playing, taking them on walks, and so on. There is a fully fenced-in dog park within walking distance from my home. My dogs can also keep your pets company and play with them, unless you would not rather them intermingle. I am flexible and can do most any activity you may like me to with your pet!
