Pet care experience

🎶 Who let the dogs out? Me!💁🏻‍♀️

Fun fact: I’ve only taken care of coworkers pets before and they’ve ALL been repeat customers 🥰 I don’t take the opportunity for granted. Being trusted to watch a member of their family for a weekend or week at a time is so special to me. ❤️

Safety, trust & environment

Being tall is an advantage! I’m able to move bigger dogs easier, especially if they have mobility issues. Chatting with the owner I find is best to see if I’m a good fit for you and your loved one!

Sarah is wonderful! She took care of my high-energy puppy and lived to tell the tale! She stayed in constant communication with me and sent me pictures of all my fur babies which really helped while I was away. Thank you Sarah!!

Sarah has always had a love for animals. She enjoys working with dogs and cats equally. She is comfortable with older animals and takes their needs seriously. She is patient and understanding to all animals.

Sarah has done over night care for our 2 dogs. She is always dependable, professional, and loves spending time with the dogs. Her communication and response time are stellar. If a question arises during her stay, she always reaches out for clarification. I have recommended her dog sitting services to friends. Overall, she provided excellent care for our dogs and we always felt confident leaving them in her care.

Sarah has watched my cat, Rue, on multiple trips, and I seriously can’t recommend her enough. Rue usually takes a while to warm up to people, but Sarah was so patient and gentle with her and really took the time to build trust. She’s incredibly responsible, caring, and pays attention to all the little details, which makes such a difference when you’re trusting someone with your pet and your home. She always sends updates and photos while I’m away, which gives me so much peace of mind and lets me know Rue is doing great. I always come home to a happy cat and a clean space. I trust Sarah completely and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely caring pet sitter.
