Pet care experience

Dogs, Cats, & other furry friends!

Hi there! My name is Sarah and I am a lover of all animals. I grew up my whole life with cats and taking care of my neighbors/friends dogs. When I was 11, I even made my own business cards to pass out around the neighborhood to advertise my petsitting "business". I am now the momma of two furry children, a long haired domestic cat named Basil and a red golden retriever named Fisher. I know the importance of these pets in your life. Because I have felt the worries of leaving them in the hands of someone else, I felt inspired to become a pet sitter myself! I have cared for a number of types of different animals including dogs, cats, birds, and weasels. I am open to pets who require medication as well as young puppies as I have just gone through this age myself with Fisher. I promise to take the best care of your furry friends and hope to put your mind at ease while you're away :)

Sarah was great! She was very communicative, and our puppy had a great time. We look forward to using her again.

Sarah is amazing! We have a quirky 8 month old and she handled all of their behaviors amazingly. We are so glad to have found Sarah and will definitely book her again :)

Pets

A typical day

A well exercised dog is a well behaved dog! I love to walk, go to parks, and provide plenty of playtime to make sure your dog is getting the activity and stimulation they need. I am also familiar with working on some basic training commands such as heel/leash and recall if that would be of interest.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

Sarah can host up to 1 pet per night
I am flexible on providing care for whatever needs are of interest to work on. I do not have a breed preference, but do ask that the client is up front and honest with me about any behavioral issues with their dog so I am able to put it in the best environment for their success!
