Experienced animal lover
Pet care experience
I have been taking care of others pets since the age of 13, dog walking and pet sitting. I have 5 years of professional experience as a kennel tech, and a year of experience as a vet tech assistant. I am knowledgeable on training (I currently work at a resort as a kennel tech/dog trainer) I personally own 6 dogs and 1 cat. I have a lot of experience dealing with all breeds of dogs, and cats. I have over 15 years experience dealing with birds and other small animals. I also have experience dealing with intact dogs! Very experienced administering medications! I currently work full time typically 630am-230pm. I will now only be offering drop in visits, walks, and boarding. I have a fenced in yard, we live on a quiet street. I am able to comfortably rotate dogs out if needed. All of my dogs have kennels of their own, so if your dog doesn’t typically like other dogs, I am knowledgeable on how to rotate animals out as needed. I like to also provide dogs with plenty of enrichment, I have tons of puzzles, snuffle mats, kongs and other toys! If you are working on training your puppy or adult dog, I am also able to stick to your training schedule and rules. I have a fenced yard for everyone to use and play in, I have plenty of couches and bed room for lounging around, everyone will have the option to be kenneled or not, whatever your baby is used to. I stick to your schedule and rules!

Thank you so much it means a lot to have someone that cares so much about our babies ! Good job
Sarah was amazing with my two Pomeranians who are very high strung old men. She followed my long list of dog mom instructions & kept them great company! I won’t hesitate to contact her should the need arise again.
Sarah has had ambition to work with animals her whole life. She's taken in many foster dogs and gave them good life's and takes great care of them. When ever I had questions about my dog I'd call her.if I were to have Sarah watch my animals I would have no worries about their safety at any point. By far one of the biggest dog lovers I've ever seen.
Sarah loves animals more than herself. Her passion is dogs, but she has a great affinity for all animals (except spiders). She works as a assistant vet tech and at home cares for three dogs and two cats. Whenever her work needs twenty-four hour monitoring of an animal she feels she can care for, she will volunteer to bring the animal home and care for it until her shift the next day. Sarah dedicates herself to ensuring all animals in her care receive nutritious food from sources that perform quality control and research on the effects their products have on animals. Sarah pays attention to detail, and provides thorough care to animals in her charge. Rest assured that Sarah will do everything she can to ensure your animals are as comfortable/stress free as can be while you are away.

I have a secure 6ft fenced in yard for the dogs to run and play in. If they enjoy water, I have some small kiddie pools for them to splash around in. I am able to stick to any training you are doing with your pups. All of my animals (including the cat) are kennel trained. Should you need to board, I just ask that your dog is kennel trained as well. I am able to host intact dogs as long as you do not have a female who is in heat or has recently been in heat as I have intact male and female standard poodles. All of my dogs do well with other dogs! I am confident and comfortable dealing with any age dog. My dogs range from 5 months to 14 years old currently. I have had puppies as young as 6 weeks old to care for and as old as 18 years old. I was a vet tech assistant for a year before changing jobs to work at a boarding/doggy daycare/grooming facility. I have had personal pets and clients pets who have needing a variety of medications administered. Weather your dog comfortably takes medications or is difficult, I always find a way to ensure they get their medications on time. Im able to provide long walks, I live near several nature parks that I love to walk with my dogs.

Information Sarah R. would like to know about your pet
Are they on any medications? Do they have a history of issues with other dogs or cats? Are they kennel trained? I have no issues with any of the above and we can make it work!
A typical day
We will start the day with a potty break and a chance to run around the yard to stretch and get some zoomies out! Then we will have breakfast. We can feed out of a bowl or a kong, or a puzzle or snuggle mat! We love to give everyone a chance to get some enrichment in while they are here. I work 630-230 Tuesday, Wednesday and fridays. After I get home everyone will have the chance to go out potty, play in the yard, and to come back inside to relax (since it’s typically the hottest sort of the day and we take heat stroke very seriously) we can hangout inside, work on training etc until it’s cooled off enough to go for a walk and have dinner. After dinner and a potty break we will head to bed! If they are used to sleeping in the bed, that’s alright! We love snuggles!

I currently work full time right now, I have mondays off so I’m available at anytime typically on mondays. Every other time I am working 630-230 or 11-7. If you live in the Clearwater area I am available to do drop in visits during those times. I am still able to board dogs as long as they are kennel trained and okay being left alone for atleast 4 hours.
