Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. With over 10 years of kennel and animal handling experience, I provide structured, supervised care tailored to each dog’s individual needs and personality. Dogs enjoy enriching nature walks and adventure outings with safe travel accommodations including secured seatbelt leashes and a comfortable transport setup. During meals and rest times, dogs can be safely separated using gates to ensure a calm, stress-free environment. My home also features a gated wrap-around deck for supervised outdoor time, play, fresh air, and relaxation in a secure setting. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, reactive, or simply loves adventure, I focus on creating a safe, patient, and positive experience from start to finish.
Ratings and reviews
Sarah watched my cat and dog over a weekend. I got lots of pictures and they were well cared for. House looked good too.


Sarah is absolutely wonderful!!! She is incredibly responsive to text messages and took such good care of our Sadie for 3 nights. This was the 1st time we left our 7 month old golden with anyone and of course, wanted everything to go smoothly. She sent me photos and updates and I didn’t have to worry at all. I would absolutely hire Sarah again without any hesitation!! I know you’ll love her!

Took excellent care of our dog and gave consistent communication. Left our house in excellent condition. 100% would recommend!

Sarah is so amazing. She is always on time and readily available to take my pups, we often work long hours and don’t love the doggy daycare setting for our older dog. He still gets his daily walks in while staying comfy on the couch. I was exceptionally impressed when we had a delayed flight and wouldn’t make it in time to pick up our dogs from the sitter. She was able to pick them up for us and drop them off at home, which took a ton of stress off us!! Her experience makes me feel comfortable even with my tiny chihuahua and I would recommend her to any of my fellow dog moms.
I have worked with Sarah at Great Bay Kennel for 7 years and as her manager I can a attest that she is reliable, trustworthy, and an all around great worker. She loves every dog like they're her own and will be a great addition to Rover!

Schedule
I work full time 7-3:30 Monday through Friday. I am available for walks anytime after 3:30 & completely open in the weekends. Our two dogs and two cats are great with visitors so we can take boarders anytime. I am willing to house sit but not for longer stays.

- Please let me know if your dog has any special requests, routines, medical needs, sensitivities, or personality quirks I should be aware of before their stay. I’m comfortable working with a wide variety of breeds, temperaments, energy levels, and care needs, including administering many medications and accommodating special feeding or handling routines. My goal is always to make your dog feel as safe, comfortable, and understood as possible while they’re in my care.
