Where Happy Dogs Want to Stay

Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 15 years of hands-on pet experience, and caring for animals is truly one of my greatest joys. I’m the go-to person for friends and family when they need help with their pets, and I’m always happy to step in with love, patience, and reliability. I share my home with one small dog with a big personality who loves playing with new friends and welcoming visiting pups. I work from home and my flexible schedule allows us to enjoy neighborhood strolls and park adventures, and I’d be thrilled to include your dog in our outings—or keep things calm and cozy if that’s more their style. In addition to caring for my own pets, my experience includes working with a local rescue group and fostering dogs from all backgrounds. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and needs, from bottle-fed newborns to senior dogs with complex medical issues. I’m attentive, compassionate, and committed to learning each pet’s unique routine, preferences, and quirks so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care. Whether your dog is here for adventure, snuggles, or simply a reliable companion while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own and make sure their time with me feels like a home away from home. 🐾💛

Doggy Day Care • Sep 08, 2026

Sarah was very nice and welcoming to my two babies. They were with her for the whole day and she took great care of them. They came home tired and happy after a long day of playing and cuddles on the couch.

Doggy Day Care • Sep 04, 2026

I was so relieved that I finally found a place to leave my Maltese that felt perfect for all of us that I nearly cried after I dropped him off. It was a practice run of 3 hours. In a couple of weeks he’ll be staying overnight and we feel great about it! Thank you, Sarah!

Would give 10 stars if I could. Sarah is amazing! Someone who truly loves all animals and cares for each one as if they are her own. In 9 years of Rover sitters, I’ve never felt this comfortable leaving Lily with someone. Sarah sends routine photos and updates and her sense of humor makes each one that much better. Thank you Sarah! Lily has found her forever second home ❤️

Safety, trust & environment
