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.

Information Sarah R. would like to know about your pet

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.

A typical day

A typical day here is structured, active, and centered around safety, enrichment, and comfort. We start the morning with first potty breaks and some fresh air before everyone is separated for breakfast to keep meal times calm and stress-free. After breakfast, dogs get time to relax and settle in with a cozy post-breakfast nap while we prepare for the day’s adventures. Once everyone is ready, we gear up with properly fitted harnesses, secure leashes, and safe walking setups for group outings. From there, we head out onto the private hiking trails directly behind my home, often making our way to the rail trail for nature walks, sniffing, exercise, and mental enrichment. After our adventures, dogs can relax with supervised playtime or lounge on the gated wrap-around deck for fresh air and sunshine while staying safely contained. Dinner is again done separately when needed to maintain a peaceful environment for every dog. At bedtime, dogs settle in for a cozy evening in the living room with access to a king-size bed, blankets, and plenty of comfort. If any dog needs personal space or a break from my dogs, gates are used to create calm separation. If everyone is getting along well, we all cuddle up together and enjoy a relaxed, home-style environment.

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!
