Friendly, Enthusiastic Caretaker :)
Pet care experience
Previous to moving to Michigan, I worked at a doggy daycare, where I gained extensive experience in handling dogs, ranging from ensuring their well-being and happiness, training session for structure and behavioral patterns, taking them on long walks and ensure safe play, and practicing safe feeding and medication administration. I absolutely LOVED my job, but now that I am in the area for college, I am looking to fill that dog-sized hole in my heart and help someone else out, especially as I don’t even have my own babies with me, In my time at the daycare, I handled dogs ranging in size from 8 lbs to over 200 lbs, and have experience with all ages, ranging from 8 weeks to seniors (our eldest daycare dog was 21 and an absolute doll!). In addition to professional and structured care, I have been taking care of dogs for over 15 years for family friends and neighbors. I am very hands-on with the animals that I watch, and I love spending time with them, whether providing pets and love or going on runs and walks! My ultimate goal is to keep your baby safe and happy, and I will treat your baby as my own. :) I am also comfortable with cats, and other animals, and am happy to take (and give!) all the love I can get! Please feel free to message with questions.

Sarah was fantastic with my 15 year baby girl, Axson. She was patient and made her comfortable. I would recommend Sarah for dog care any time! Thanks again!!
Sarah Michelle was a wonderful dogsitter and house sitter! She was very responsive and communicative both before she was here and throughout her stay. She took great care of our home and our dogs, including regular walks and giving them their meds. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
Super appreciate Sarah-michelle, my fur baby Sammy loves her and the cuddles he gets from her whenever she watches him. She is attentive on making sure he gets the meds and food he needs on a rigid schedule, and makes him comfortable when we are out of town.
Ms. Eversaul has been a god send. my Dog Monty loves her. she is always prompt and my dog is always happy to see her.

Home
Information Sarah-michelle E. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. Additionally, if they have any triggers that would be common to encounter when on a walk in your neighborhood, please be sure to share that with me. Lastly, if there is a specific type of exercise or play they particularly enjoy, please alert me so that I may provide and accommodate for that!
A typical day
I greatly enjoy taking dogs on walks and runs around their local neighborhoods. This allows for them to be familiar with the area they are in, while still getting used to a new person (I can understand this would be scary for some pups!) On our outings, we will be sure to get exercise in (my usual walks for larger dogs are anywhere from 1-3 miles, for smaller dogs 0.5-2 miles), with me monitoring their energy levels. We will also be sure to get in lots of mental stimulus with games and plenty of sniffs around town. Otherwise, there always is time for cuddles!!

I am a full time college student, so my schedule is primary having me in class from 10 am-3 pm daily. I am happy to stay for weekends or overnights, and can do morning, afternoon, and evening walks. Spring break is also coming up from March 9-March 17, in which time I will be fully available!
