Every dog must have his day ~JSwift

Pet care experience

Offering in-home pet services (drop-ins, walking, baths). My pet history? I have raised three dogs of my own and 1 sweet diva cat. I trained one of my dogs so well that my brother stole her. Just kidding. She up and moved to Florida so my niece and nephew could have a dog when their parents' schedules did not allow time to train a new puppy. I've watched loved ones canine and feline fur-babies for as long as I can remember. I have also done some work with horses and donkeys. I am open to caring for most pets, but I'm probably not going to dote as much on your tarantula. I am looking forward to meeting you and your family. To me, pets are family.

I know Sarah as a good friend. I can personally say she is caring, passionate, welcoming and responsible. I love being around her. I think she is a great option for a dog sitter and caregiver. She has tons of passion for animals and their well-being. I think her being a sitter/caregiver could improve a dogs attitude and also their relationship with the owner. You could also maybe gain a good friend in the process. (:

Sarah is phenomenal with dogs. She cares for and trains our puppy every visit with patience and love. Lola jumps for joy every time she sees Sarah. Watching Sara interact with her own dog is also very fun.

Sarah absolutely loves all pets! Sarah is knowledgeable about pet care and the needs of animals. She will spend time with your pet(s), giving them loving attention, playing with them and caring for their needs. Sarah is conscientious, trustworthy and attentive. She has taken care of my two dogs over the past few years whenever I leave town. They are always well cared for and want for nothing while I am away. You can't go wrong with Sarah!

Sarah is wonderful with my dogs! I have two golden retrievers and Sarah has kept them overnight for me several times. She does such a great job with them. She takes them on walks and gives them lots of love. You can tell she really cares about the dogs she watches. I would recommend her to anyone!

Safety, trust & environment

I will provide services at your home. There are two animal loving adults in my home, a 12-year-old cat named Sushi, and a 1-year-old Irish Terrier named Bruce Wayne (more on them below). Sushi is my tuxedo alpha sweetheart of a cat. She will keep to herself if there's company around, but will snuggle up to anyone who sits down for a few minutes. Bruce Wayne came home right before COVID hit. We were in quarantine with him as puppy, but he is amazing! He's an all out BOY and socializes happily with people and dogs. He has been around up to six other dogs at the same time and lived to tell the story of wagging tails and snacks. He has also been around up to 15 people at a time in my small home, is great with kids, and has an au-naturale mustache. He's a quick learner and the most laid back a puppy could be. Gary is a union painter/drywall taper; I'm currently taking a break from human services to work with other species, too.

Information Sarah S. would like to know about your pet

I don't have any breed preferences, all your furry friends are my friends, too. What's the easiest way to earn their trust? Do you have a snack rule?

A typical day

I want to know what your fur-babies' favorite toys and games are! What you are working on with them? I'm happy to take them around your neighborhood for some good ol' exercise!
