Highlights
Pet care experience
Going the distance for your pet!
Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up surrounded by both cats and dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets. I’m comfortable with everything from long walks and runs to administering oral medication and supporting more specialized care routines. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets for neighbors, friends, and families, and I currently work as an experienced sitter on Wag. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, or just a calm and caring presence, I’ve got it covered. I’ll treat your pet like my own, and keep you updated every step of the way.

Safety, trust & environment
I tailor my care to each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping things as consistent and low-stress as possible, whether that’s sticking to feeding schedules, maintaining clean litter boxes, or ensuring dogs get the walks, exercise, and attention they’re used to. With cats, I’m especially mindful of their comfort and boundaries. I take time to build trust, read their cues, and create a calm presence, whether they want to play, cuddle, or just coexist. For dogs, I bring a reliable and attentive energy, making sure they get safe, engaging walks and plenty of care and attention. I’m comfortable administering oral medication, following detailed care instructions, and handling pets of all ages and temperaments. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe and well cared for. At home, I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment. As a pet owner myself, I prioritize safety, routine, and making sure every animal feels comfortable and cared for.
Ratings and reviews
Sarah is an exceptional and intentional individual who I have no doubt will take amazing care of your pets as if they were your own. She is kind, communicative, and always punctual. Sarah has cared for my cat on numerous occasions and I have always felt completely confident in her. I give her my highest recommendation!!
Sarah is an incredible babysitter, she watched our 50 pound bull dog for several weeks while we were away for a last minute family emergency and was incredibly accommodating. She sent us daily updates, completed FaceTimes, and when we got back Mahou didn’t want to leave! We will continue to use her and have her watch our little gremlin baby! She is incredible and highly recommended!!
Sarah is a very thoughtful and kind sitter, and I will always trust her with my Burt! We often bond over our love for animals and pet sitting adventures. You are guaranteed to rest easy and get great pet pics while you’re away.
Sarah is an outstanding caregiver to all pets! I lived with her while we had two cats in the apartment (one of her own), and she constantly showered them with so much love and attention. While living with her, I watched her deal with specialized diets, giving medications, and transporting cats. On top of her caregiver skills, she is also an extremely kind and responsible person to connect with, highly recommend!

Schedule
I work full time, but I have a flexible schedule and often work remotely, which allows me to incorporate pet care naturally into my day. I’m able to stop in for visits, check-ins, feedings, and playtime throughout the day, and I’m especially mindful of maintaining consistent routines for the pets I care for. Pet care is already part of my daily life as a cat owner, so I’m used to building my schedule around feeding times, litter care, and quality time. I’m reliable, communicative, and make sure each visit is thoughtful and unhurried.
