Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pets get a loving, safe, and comfortable environment where they can relax, play, and get plenty of attention. I tailor care to their needs—whether that means active playtime, peaceful naps, or extra cuddles. With access to Astoria Park and the dog park, I ensure they get fresh air and exercise based on their energy level and personality. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping them on their usual routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. From walks and feeding schedules to playtime and companionship, I provide reliable and attentive care to make sure your pet feels happy and stress-free while you're away. Your pup will be treated like family with me! 🐾

Information Sarah M. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pet, I’d love to know about their routine, personality, and any special needs to ensure they feel comfortable and happy. Key details include: ? Daily Routine: Feeding schedule, potty breaks, and exercise habits. ? Temperament: Are they social or shy? Do they get along with other dogs? ? Health Needs: Any medications, allergies, or mobility concerns. ? Training & Commands: Any specific cues or behaviors they follow. ? Favorite Activities: Do they love fetch, belly rubs, or long walks? The more I know, the better I can provide a loving and stress-free experience for your pup! ??

A typical day

I love keeping pets engaged and happy with activities tailored to their personality and energy level! We’ll enjoy walks around Astoria Park, trips to the dog park for social pups, or peaceful strolls for those who prefer a quieter setting. At home, we’ll play games like fetch or tug-of-war, and I enjoy teaching basic tricks for extra mental stimulation. Of course, there will also be plenty of cuddle time for those who love to relax and unwind. Your pet will have a fun, loving, and enriching experience while in my care! ?

Pet care experience

I currently have a friendly 3-year-old Goldendoodle, and before her, I cared for a teacup Yorkie for 16 years. This experience allowed me to work with both teacup-sized dogs and senior pups that require extra attention and care. I love working with dogs and enjoy teaching basic tricks to keep them engaged and stimulated. Living near Astoria Park and the dog park enables me to have great options for activities tailored to each dog's needs and personality—whether they love long walks, socializing, or just relaxing in a quiet spot. As a professional photographer, I also love capturing pets’ personalities, so you’ll receive a few high-quality photos of your pup while they’re with me—perfect for peace of mind and a special keepsake. Your pup will be in loving and experienced hands with me! 🐾

10/10! Super responsive. Had a meet and greet prior with both dogs. Got pictures all day. My dog came back exhausted because she had such a great time. Even cried when she left! 😂 100% will rebook again!

Sarah was communicative and took great care of Indy. Took him on nice long walks and was attentive. And sent plenty of photos. Would recommend and would book again in the future.
