Information Sarah S. would like to know about your pet

I appreciate knowing your pet’s routine, preferences, energy level, feeding instructions, medical needs, triggers, and what helps them feel calm, safe, and happy. I love learning each pet’s personality so I can meet them where they are and provide just-right care.

A typical day

Daily routines include play, enrichment, snuggles, and relaxed indoor rest time, plus walks along the levee and forested river trails. I meet each dog where they are, tailoring just-right challenges based on their pace, age, personality, and energy level.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Sarah, an experienced, reliable pet caregiver and lifelong animal lover. My son and I recently said goodbye to our beloved dog of 12 years, and while we aren’t quite ready to welcome a new pet of our own, we deeply enjoy caring for animals and making them feel safe, loved, and at home. I have over 15 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I take a thoughtful, individualized approach—meeting each dog where they are and offering just-right levels of activity, enrichment, and rest based on their needs, age, and energy. I prioritize safety, routines, clear communication, and plenty of affection, including snuggles and relaxed indoor downtime. My 10-year-old son is kind, gentle, and very respectful with animals, and he especially loves quiet companionship and playtime (always supervised). Your pet will be treated like a valued family member, and you can expect dependable care, thoughtful attention, and regular updates while you’re away.

Wonderful communication and pictures. The cats all took to her and she was great with the care of the cats and the house. Thank you so much.

Sarah S sat for my 13 year old small dog and he loved her. She took time to walk and provide his meds. I highly recommend her and will book her again in the future.

Sarah and her son were wonderful with my elder dog. She took good care of the house, sent photo updates, responded promptly to all communications and overall was a pleasure to work with. When she returned the key, my dog was very happy to see her. That says it all.
