Dog’s best friend

Pet care experience

My parents got our first dog when I was four, a German Shepard, and he was my best friend. I grew up training, walking, and loving him. I am a recent engineering Cal Poly grad and work from home in San Luis Obispo. I am not in a stage where I feel responsible owning a dog of my own but I am capable of helping out with yours! I will do my best to keep your pets feeling happy, safe, and taken care of! For house sits, I will be respectful of your space and privacy. I currently live in a big house with a large, fenced yard, perfect for running around and potty breaks :) I have also volunteered at Woods so I have experience with all sorts of dogs!

Thank you Sarah for being such a great sitter. She is very responsible and full of love. If I need a dog sitter again, she is my first choice. Thank you so much again

Sarah was communicative and even picked up/ dropped off our pup. She sent pictures and took great care of her. We will definitely trust our dog with her again.

Sarah was quick to respond and flexible to work with. She took great care of Zoey over the weekend and communicated well. I would not hesitate to use her again....you can book her feeling 100% confident!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard, great for potty breaks or a quick game of fetch. I am comfortable using crates for dogs who need it. While handling someone else’s dog, I am cautious on walks and would never let him/her off leash in public. I have also taken a training class for handling aggressive dogs to help out with my parent’s German Shepard.

Information Sarah R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, preferred treats, allergies/special diet, aggression towards specific groups (ex: my parent’s dog loves everyone except other male dogs), and if you are personally comfortable with me driving your dog to the beach/dog park/etc.

A typical day

I love to play a dog’s favorite game with them! I have a large fenced yard so the world is our oyster. My dog at home loves to chase a laser pointer. I like to go on long walks and explore the neighborhood but my favorite is taking them to the beach. At home, I like to spice things up with some easy training repeating old tricks and maybe even learning a new one!
