Run, hike and play with your pup!

Pet care experience

I am a very active and energetic dog lover (with a rescue dog of my own) who loves to hike, run, play with, tucker-out and love on all kinds of dogs! It is rare that I find a dog that can tire me out! I was also a competitive weightlifter for 15 years and am very physically strong, so I can handle pullers, jumpers, etc! Your dog will be in safe and capable hands! I worked at the Truckee Tahoe Animal Shelter in CA for 5 years as a behaviorist, and at the Northern Nevada SPCA for 4 years as a vet assistant. I have owned, walked and dog-sat dogs all my life. I feel comfortable with any kind of dog and can adapt my attention/activities to each animals specific needs. I have experience with basic dog training as well. I can do basic house cleaning if needed, along with food and medicine administration. I can send photo and/or video updates to you while I walk, visit or sit your pet! I treat all pets I work with as an extension of my family! Their health, happiness and safety are as important to me as that of my own family and my own dog! Working with dogs full time is my dream life and I can’t wait to meet yours!!

Sarah was amazing. She loved our pups like her own. We recieved many pictures and updates. Both of our pups absolutely loved her! One of our dogs has separation anxiety and will normally refuse to eat when we are gone but thos time, he ate all of his meals and went about his daily routine. He enjoyed lots of play time and enjoyed being spoiled.

Sarah is, without the doubt, the most thoughtful and genuine pet enthusiast I've ever met. Many conversations with her have been interrupted by the realization that she had several blocks prior seen a dog on the street, and was overcome with the desire to pet and compliment it. People generally treat their dogs like members of their family; Sarah treats ALL dogs like members of a constantly growing extended canine family.

I have known Sarah P. for over 25 years. She has been a devoted dog owner all of these years. She is an extremely smart and responsible human being and loves all animals more than anyone I know. I have entrusted her with the care of our dogs many times and would do so again. Any pet would thrive under her care. KIM P.

I do not care for dogs in my own home as my dog is not a fan of other dogs. However I am open to house sitting in the owners home or doing a “dog daycare” in the owners home.

Information Sarah P. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs! I would like to know if they are aggressive with other dogs or humans, places or things to avoid that may trigger them, as well as anything like pulling, collar slipping, bolting, etc.

A typical day

I love hiking and running up and around all of the amazing trails and parks in Portland! I’m comfortable taking your dog anywhere you feel comfortable, including dog parks! I love playing tug of war, fetch, and racing! I can also walk your dog around the neighborhood where you live - I am very flexible!
