Brisk Walk/Leisure Stroll -U Choose

Pet care experience

I love the companionship and getting to know pets. Each one is different and has their special way of letting you know what they need. I have pet sitted for over 10 years in my home and in other family homes. I like to work with them on tricks. I think exercise, frequent water and bathroom breaks are important. I enjoy taking them on long walks and socializing with other dogs if their temperament allows. I am conscientious, mature, and responsible. I just moved back to the area to care for an aging parent. I cannot do dog boarding as we don’t have a fenced backyard. I can do daily walks. I have given oral medications. I currently have no pets in my home so I am able to provide a lot of attention to your pet!

Sarah was fantastic with my dog, Gator! Drop off and pickup were both very easy. Sarah was communicative and sent me pictures of Gator throughout my trip! I highly recommend Sarah.

Hobbes had a wonderful stay with Sarah and her family. Scheduling was easy and he was well cared for and they sent us updates during the visit. I would definitely recommend her!

Sarah and her husband were great! My dog was so tuckered out after spending a weekend playing with them and running around in their yard. It was easy and they sent me a few updates, too. Very pleased

Sarah was amazing! This was my first time leaving my pup with someone and she made me feel so comfortable and made sure I knew she was being taken care of! I appreciated the flexible drop off and pick up times, and pictures and daily communication too! I can’t wait to use her again!
