Pet care experience

Friendly and calm

Hi! My name is Sarah, and I have a genuine love for animals and a deep sense of responsibility when it comes to caring for them. I've grown up around pets owned by family and friends, and I've always been the first to offer help when someone needed a trustworthy person to look after their dog.

Sarah was great! We have a puppy who wasn't fully vaccinated and she accommodated our asks (no public walks or other dogs in the house). She took great care of our puppy and will definitely use her again!

Sarah was great and so was her son! I was nervous about leaving Berkeley while I went on vacation due to a recent injury Berkeley had, but Sarah gave Berkeley his medication and love and took great care of him. Definitely recommend Sarah!

Sarah is a wonderful host for our pup, Hunter. He loves going over there! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a place where your dog will be well taken care of.

Sarah is awesome. She really took such a good care of Ella while I was out of country. I would highly recommend her.

Sarah took very good care of our 15 yr old dog Royce. She sent pictures and made sure he got just what he needed, lots of love! Would definitely recommend her and will use her again!

Schedule

I work primarily from home, with a couple days in office now and then. I have a fairly flexible schedule, so I can walk or take your pet out as needed during the day! I have a high schooler who is home in the evenings and on weekends.

Safety, trust & environment

I believe that safety and trust are the foundation of any good pet-sitting relationship, and I take this responsibility seriously. When caring for your dog, whether in my home or yours, I prioritize creating a secure and loving environment where your pup feels safe, comfortable, and happy. In My Home: If your dog stays with me, I make sure my home is pet-friendly. I keep the environment calm and welcoming. I will be available to provide companionship, whether it's relaxing on the couch or a quick outdoor adventure. I can commit to being home most of the day, and I can accommodate preferences. I primarily keep only one dog (or dog family) at a time at my house, though I do make exceptions on an as needed basis depending on the situation. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I am comfortable walking dogs on a leash and can take them outside regularly as needed.

A typical day

I can walk your dog in and around my neighborhood, checking out all the new smells! If the weather is agreeable, I like to spend time outside on my deck.
