Availability

I am currently in grad school getting my masters degree. With that being said, I have a bunch of random availability to care for your pet! I always get outside some how, so walking a dog is perfect! But don’t get me wrong, I love cats as well and could spend all day inside playing and petting a cat!

Safety, trust & environment

I have had many different breeds of dogs throughout my life and I currently own a cat. I can crate, use gates to restrict the pet to certain rooms. I am very active so playing and going on walks is my favorite part of pet sitting!

Information Sarah R. would like to know about your pet

I am great at problem solving and learning the behaviors, personalities, and limits that any pet has. I have grown up with many pets including a senior dog with diabetes that needed an insulin shot 2 times a day. Any medications that the pet needs I can provide, I have experience providing medications to many animals, and I am confident in my ability. It would be great to know if your pet is aggressive or territorial ahead of time, however, this wouldn't deter me from providing your animal the care they need.

A typical day

I love going on walks (long or short), playing with toys, fetch, give them a ton of love and attention, and I can send a bunch of pictures!

Sarah did a wonderful job with our dogs. They loved her!! Our only concern was that Sarah did not communicate with us in a timely manner. Regardless, all worked out very well!!

Sarah was amazing while dog sitting and house sitting for us. Ajax is a great dog but can be a little needy with attention so she took great care of him with walks and attention every day. Not to mention we had several house snafus while she stayed which she handled so professionally on our behalf! Thank you Sarah!
