I have a light work from home schedule, so I’ll be with your dog most of the time (with the possible exception of a quick run to the store/errand). I have a dog of my own who I walk, hike, play with, and take to the dog park regularly. I’d be happy to have another pup to take on outings, if appropriate.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced balcony and live in a very peaceful, walkable area. My house is open to the dogs (except for the kitchen, which I’ve blocked off because my dog will jump high to grab snacks). My dog is friendly and a bit aloof; he mostly keeps to himself and enjoys having the company of other dogs. Should anything happen, I live within 5-10 minutes of at least 3 veterinary hospitals.

Information Sarah P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any particular behaviors I should keep an eye on. In particular: I have plants in my home but will happily move them if there’s any chance that your dog might treat them as a snack/to avoid upset tummies. Is there anything that will make your pup feel more comfortable in my home? Please let me know!

A typical day

I’d love to spend time with your dog outside. There’s a big grassy area just outside my home where they can sniff and meet the other dogs who live nearby (if they like being social). My dog and I love long walks, so that’s also an option. When inside, we have lots of toys and they are welcome sit on the balcony, where a lot of pups enjoy watching the birds and outdoor activities.

Can’t wait to meet your pup!

Pet care experience

I’ve been pet sitting for 20+ years and have yet to meet a dog I don’t enjoy. I love their unique personalities and caring for them.

Ellie had another wonderful visit with Sarah and Max. She has stayed with them several times now and we always feel so comfortable knowing what a loving environment she is in. Thank you Sarah!
