Highlights
Pet care experience
Dependable in-home pet care
I have over a decade of experience providing reliable, attentive care to dogs and cats of all ages and needs. My background includes working in a dog and cat boarding facility, years of overnight pet sitting, fostering at-risk and special-needs animals, and supporting large-scale rescue transport operations. These roles have given me a strong understanding of safety, routine, and animal behavior. As a long-time pet owner, I understand how important it is to know your pets are well cared for while you’re away. My approach is simple: consistent communication, respect for your home and routines, and the same level of steady, compassionate care I expect for my own animals. I’m happy to send photo and text updates as often as you prefer so you can enjoy your time away with confidence. When I’m with your pets, they have my full attention and support.

Safety, trust & environment
My experience with rescue transport has equipped me with strong skills in safe handling, especially when walking dogs in the community. I use secure, double-leash methods to reduce the risk of equipment failure or slipped collars, and I never leave dogs unattended outdoors, even in fenced areas. I am attentive to safety at all times and conduct thorough checks before leaving a home to ensure all pets are accounted for. I understand how stressful it can be for an owner to be away, and preventing any possibility of a pet going missing is one of my highest priorities. Most importantly, I am committed to providing the same level of care, consistency, and comfort that you expect for your own animals. I ensure pets feel safe and engaged, and I maintain clear communication so you are always informed about how they are doing.
Ratings and reviews
Sarah is so patient with my cats and I couldn’t have a better person caring for them while I’m traveling! She’s the best!
Sarah was amazing with my kitty! She needs infusions every other day for kidney disease and Sarah was gentle and loving with her and my other 2 cats! Punctual, sent lots of photos and updates. 100% recommend! 🩷
Thank you, Sarah, for taking such excellent care of Maggie! We really appreciated the detailed reports and photographs. Couldn't be happier with a dog sitter!

Schedule
The majority of my work is done from home, and I use a wireless hotspot when needed. While I occasionally have brief in-person appointments, I schedule them myself and am never away for more than two hours. I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs on a case-by-case basis, and I will prioritize the routines and preferences that matter most to you and your animal.
