Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Sarah. I'm a huge animal lover and currently have a Pug (Daisy) and 1 cat (Ivy). My dog loves to share her toys with visiting friends. She is very friendly, socialized and not food aggressive. I love going for walks, runs and on hikes. I love going to the park and exploring the outdoors. Your dog will be loved as much as I love my own. I live in a house with a fully fenced yard and also have plenty of room in the house for play and quiet areas when your fur baby needs a break. I have extra dog beds and bowls, and I also have a giant kennel on hand if you request crating at night (my dog sleeps on my bed). I also have a ton of toys! All dogs are welcome and I guarantee your dog will be safe, well cared for, loved and best of all tired!!! All my animals are current on their vaccines. I'm currently at home full time.

Sarah has such a gentle nature, our dog took to her so quickly! She even put her head between Sarah's knees for ear rubs. She doesn't do that with just anyone. 😉 I appreciate the walk updates and Sarah's messages about how the day went with our dog. And bonus that Sarah lives so close to us!

Sarah is the best! She takes care of our Tater and he loves to be with her. I know Tater is in the best hands with her.

Sarah took great care of my Tater. She is very communicative and sends pictures which I love! I trust her with all daycare and sitter needs. Tater had a great time and was tired when we picked him up :)

Thank you Sarah! It’s such a comfort to know Libby is getting loving care while I’m away. The photos you send make me smile.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog will be in very good hands when in my care. I will care for them as if they are my own. I provide constant supervision because it only takes a second for an accident to happen. I know that each dog has their own preference in toys so I provide a large variety of toys and have plenty on hand (soft, hard, chews, balls, sticks, frisbees, ropes, etc...). I constantly check the toys for safety issues and throw them away once broken, ripped or unsafe. I provide plenty of walks/runs for daycare and boarding dogs. If a dog gets very dirty or muddy on my watch I always make sure to send them home clean. I have quiet areas available inside my home if your dog needs some chill time. I provide separate feeding areas for each dog and have plenty of clean metal dog bowls. I also have numerous dog beds and plenty of blankets for each dog but I also allow them to rest on the couch if that's what they choose. If your dog is crate trained I respect that and will crate your dog per your request. I have 2 crates available (small and XL) or you can bring your own. In-home care, during each visit I will: - feed your pet/s (kibble, wet food, treats, vitamins, digestive aid...) per your instructions - rinse water bowl and fill with fresh water - give your pet/s lots of attention through play, cuddles, and treats. - scoop and/or change litter box - give medication if necessary - Any additional needs like feeding the fish, watering the plants...

Information Sarah R. would like to know about your pet

I would like your dog to be as comfortable as possible when in my care so the more I know about your furry friend the better. Let me know about any behaviors like separation anxiety or fears. Any quirks... Please let me know of any special needs your pet/s has. I can administer medication if necessary.

A typical day

There's never a dull moment in my house!!! We will spend a lot of time outside playing fetch, chase, tug o war, wrestling, and water play. We will go on walks in the neighborhood and to different parks nearby. If I have permission to take your dog in the car we will go to on hikes, to the river, and/or lakes. We will also hang out inside the house, especially if it's a raining day, and play and cuddle.

These prices are for one dog. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
